A deed of gift is a gift agreement, according to which the property of the donor is transferred free of charge to the donee. The transfer of ownership takes place after the conclusion of the contract, that is, during the life of the donor - in contrast to a will, when legal consequences occur only after the death of the testator. When donating, the donee re-registers the property in his name and then fully disposes of it.
But what to do if one person gave another an apartment, and the recipient died without surviving the donor? Can the latter regain his former property?
