Dear Sir,
1. If a wife has a house on her only name and she has two children after the death of the wife will the husband will also become co-owner of the wife house with her two children ?
Or
The husband has no right after the death of wife and children are the only absolute co-owners of the mother property.
2. What will be the way to bring the wife property on the name of husband only without any interference of the two children in future for safeguard?

Law of inheritance is same for Hindu male or female. As the property was self acquired and the lady died intestate so her husband and both the children shall get equal share therein and husband can get his share partitioned in case he wants no interference from hsi children till his whole life.
