FAQ
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.
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.
The grantor, or the current property owner, must sign the deed in the presence of a notary public. The grantor must also formally transfer the property from their name to the trust's name. This step solidifies the legal transfer and ensures that the living trust holds the property.
Importantly, assets held in trust do not need to go through probate court—allowing your beneficiaries to access their inheritances more easily and quickly. While it may make sense for some people to have only a will, typically those with a trust(s) should also have a will to cover any property not covered by the trust.
Trusts offer amazing benefits, but they also come with potential downsides like loss of control, limited access to assets, costs, and recordkeeping difficulties.
You must create the form stating precisely what you are transferring to the (named) trustee of the (named) trust. Sign and date the form. You must sign it once as the person assigning the properties to the living trust and once as the trustee. Include the word "trustee" after that signature.

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.
