Can you put instructions in a will that dictate how property can be used after death


I don't do estate law, but I recall a professor telling me that "you cannot rule from the grave" and you cannot tell a legatee what to do with property once it divests to him/her. YMMV upon consultation with an estate attorney.

This is incorrect.

To the OP: A lot depends on your state of residence and/or the state in which the property is located. Consult an attorney in your area.
