If the real property that you are writing about is solely in your name as your sole and separate property you have every right under the laws of all states in this country to have legal title to the property transferred into the name of your son.
Before you do so, I suggest that you consult with a real estate attorney in that the transfer of title of this property by you to your son may raise some gift tax issues for you depending upon the value of the property transferred.
