Bill > H1548

This bill, concerning Massachusetts homestead law, proposes to expand the definition of "owner" for the purpose of homestead protection, which is a legal provision that protects a homeowner's primary residence from certain creditors. Specifically, it would include individuals who hold a "remainder interest" in the property, meaning they are entitled to own the property after a specific event or the death of another person, in addition to those who already qualify as owners under existing law.
