Identifying a property that may form part of an inheritance as either self acquired or ancestral is crucial as the law treats both types of properties very differently.
Identifying a property as either self acquired or ancestral will help you to plan how your estate would be inherited by your heirs. On the other hand, as a legal heir this would also allow you to identify your rightful share in the family estate.
