FAQ
Trusts also can be very useful for asset protection purposes if the creditors of the beneficiary are prevented from reaching the trust's assets. A trust can be an effective way to place assets outside the reach of creditors. However, not all forms of a trust will function as an asset protection device.
There are many methods that a grantor may use to transfer assets into a trust, including the following: Deeds. Title transfer. Assignment of ownership. Opening new accounts. Assignment of rights. Incorporating a pour-over will. Naming the trust as a beneficiary.
After the trust is drawn up, transfer the title from your name to the trust's. The new deed names the trust as the grantee. Sign the deed in the presence of a notary public. Record the new deed in the county clerk's office where your home is located.
Often, a Trust will be created along with a Will, which stipulates how holdings of the Trustor are to be distributed. Trusts can cover assets like real estate, but there may be other valuables that need to be transferred too. These valuables are known as Personal Property.
The chief advantage is to avoid probate. Placing your important assets in a trust can offer you the peace of mind of knowing assets will be passed on to the beneficiaries you designate, under the conditions you choose and without first undergoing a drawn-out legal process.
Trusts offer amazing benefits, but they also come with potential downsides like loss of control, limited access to assets, costs, and recordkeeping difficulties.
In most situations, one would typically want to maintain full control of personal property assets. As a result, few would use this type of trust planning for personal property. An exception might be an heirloom of great value that spends most of its time in a safe deposit box.
When property is placed in a revocable living trust, there is no “change in ownership,” and thus, no reassessment of the current values. Upon the death of the trustor, the revocable living trust becomes irrevocable.
