FAQ

Some of your financial assets need to be owned by your trust and others need to name your trust as the beneficiary. With your day-to-day checking and savings accounts, I always recommend that you own those accounts in the name of your trust.

The transfer document should list assets you're transferring to the Trust. It's good to be specific, but you can use broad categories (like “furniture,” “clothing,” “jewelry,” etc.) without listing every item in each of those categories.

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.

Putting assets, such as real estate, financial accounts, investments, insurance policies, and personal properties, in a living trust involves certain steps depending on the type of asset. These assets can be moved into the trust through legal documents such as deeds, title transfers, or assignments.

Always start by looking at the document that created the trust. This document, often called the "trust instrument," will probably be titled, for example, "the James T. Kahane Revocable Living Trust" or the "Nessler Family Trust." In particular, look for a list of assets at the end of the document.

MAKING SURE THAT TRUST ASSETS ARE PROPERLY TITLED. For a Trust to provide its intended advantages, title to trust assets must be held in the name of the trustee. Only those assets that have been re-titled (i.e., legally transferred) into the name of the trustee are in the trust.

Assets can be transferred to a trust through methods like a deed of grantor(s) to trustee(s), title transfer, assignment of ownership, opening new accounts, naming the trust as a beneficiary, and more. Putting property in a trust can be done through various legal means, providing flexibility to the grantor.

What Are the Disadvantages of Putting Your House in a Trust in California? Putting a home, or any real estate, into a trust can be costly. The process can also take time, even with the help of an experienced attorney. If the home is in a trust, it can also make refinancing and changing your mortgage much harder.

When you buy a home, you may have the option of buying it in a trust. Legally, that means the trust, rather than you, owns the home. However, you can be the trustee of the property and have significant control over it and what happens to it after you die.

Grantors opting for these trusts lose their ownership rights to the assets within them. They lose the ability to decide how to manage or sell these assets.
