Trust Sales

Roughly 70% of Americans pass away without any kind of estate planning and end up in probate. 97% of the time that is due to improper receiving of assets, misspending, theft or lawsuits. Oh, and roughly 70% of trust litigation occurs among siblings regarding real estate.

As a Real Estate Planner, we are specially trained to understand the ins and outs of estate planning and can work with your attorney to ensure you are getting the most out of your estate and your wishes and intentions are carried out. We also have a variety of strategies that you may not have thought about.

The other benefits of proper trust planning are

  • Controlling Privacy – The probate process is a matter of public record which means your identity and assets are made public. 
  • Controlling when and how  young loved ones inherit assets – A trust allows you to dictate not only to whom, but when, assets are distributed
  • Estate Tax Mitigation – As the estate tax exemption changes, it is more important now than ever to consider the consequence of improper planning.
