Body surface area. In physiology and medicine, the body surface area is the measured or calculated surface of a human body. For many clinical purposes BSA is a better indicator of metabolic mass than body weight because it is less affected by abnormal adipose mass.
A life estate deed is a deed in which you transfer the future ownership of your home but retain the current ownership, creating both a present interest and a future interest in the property. You, as the present interest holder, have the exclusive right to enjoy and live in the residence until you pass.
A life estate allows lifetime use of a home before it passes to the final beneficiaries. A âlife estateâ occurs when a person has a legal right to use property during life, but does not own the property outright. You can create a life estate by will, trust, or deed. See a lawyer for help if you would like to create a life estate or if you are involved with one as a life tenant or remainderman.
