a. Suzy Q decides that she does not want to hire a fancy attorney to take care of her estate plans so she decides to draft her own will. She takes out her grandfather's old type writer and types, "I give all of my personal property to John Doe." She takes the document out of the type writer and adds in her own handwriting, "I give all of my real property to Jane Doe." She then signs the document. Is this a valid will, why or why not?

b. Years later Suzy Q decides she is going to re-do her will. She types out a new will. The will says that all of her personal property is going to go to Jane Doe. She signs in the presence of two witnesses and the two witnesses sign as well. What is the biggest problem with this will? If this will is probated, how will a court likely resolve that problem?

She says to all of her family that as of "October 31, 2020, she is creating a trust of all her real property. She is going to be both the settlorand trustee and her only child is to be the beneficiary." Is this a valid trust? Why or why not?
