Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Illinois
My father inherited farmland from his sister. Her will stated the land could not be sold for 15 years. Can the future use or sale of land be limited in a will?

It depends on the other terms of the Will.

Yes. If your father does not want to manage the land for so long, there are creative ways to handle it. He should seek out a real estate attorney with a good background in farm/commercial lease arrangements.
