FAQ

A trustee deed offers no such warranties about the title.

As far as the Internal Revenue Service is concerned, trust property belongs to the grantor. The grantor names a trustee to manage the assets, but during their lifetime, most people name themselves in this position. A successor trustee is named to carry on when the grantor dies or becomes incapacitated.

Take the signed and notarized quitclaim deed to your county recorder's office to complete the transfer of title into your revocable trust. Check in two to four weeks to ensure it has been recorded. Include the address of the property on the asset list addendum attached to your trust.

A deed conveys ownership; a deed of trust secures a loan.

The act of transferring a property that is owned by an individual into a trust, will see the trust liable to pay stamp duty on acquisition of the asset. Additionally, the individual who is transferring ownership to the trust, will be liable to pay capital gains tax on the disposal of the asset.

In the context of a California mortgage transaction, a trust deed also transfer ownership. Only this time, the title is being placed in the hands of a third-party trustee, who holds the property on behalf of the lender and the homeowner-borrower until the mortgage is paid.

The Utah warranty deed is a form of deed that provides an unlimited warranty of title. It makes an absolute guarantee that the current owner has good title to the property.

Locate your current deed. Use the proper deed. Check with your title insurance company and lender. Prepare a new deed. Sign in the presence of a notary. Record the deed in the county clerk's office. Locate the deed that's in trust. Use the proper deed.

To transfer assets such as investments, bank accounts, or stock to your real living trust, you will need to contact the institution and complete a form.
