Should you put your home in a trust? Absolutely. Putting your home in a trust can save you a lot of time and money. Typically, there are two reasons people put their home in a trust. The first is for the tax benefits. The second reason is to avoid probate. To learn why you want to avoid probate and how else putting your home in a trust can benefit you, watch my latest video.

In this lawless interlude if somebody in power wants your property they’ll just take it.

And the real estate agent gets his fee for the sale. Slight conflict of interest. Should be explained up front by honest individuals.

In PA a trust still has to go through probate!

What about holding property in trust within an LLC? As I understand it, an LLC avoids having to deal with any claims by creditors or anyone else suing perhaps due to a car accident (when damages exceeded liability insurance limits) or a slip, trip, or fall on the property.

Question for you, what if the beneficiaries of the property don't want to sell the property?

What if you’re not looking to sell it. What is a parent does a quick change of deed and puts the house under the child’s name. Then the parent passes away, what happens next? Does the child have to pay appreciation because the house went up in value how does that work? Should the parents still put the house in a trust even though they put it under the child’s name as well?

I live in Texas, am the sole owner of my house which I paid off in 1998. I enjoy reduced and fixed Real Estate taxes due to my old age and have a permanently disabled son who lives with me. I've heard of a "Lifetime Estate" which would supposedly avoid probate. Any truth to that? Also, what about my son being able to take advantage of lower taxes due to his disability upon my death?

If your house in the trust, still has a mortgage payment when you pass, must the person you leave the house to continue your mortgage payment or must they sell or refinance house upon your passing?

Basically, the original mortgage is a contract between the mortgage company and the mortgagee (borrower/"owner").Once any mortgagee (borrower) passes away, a new contract must be instituted, so inheritor must refinance balance into their own mortgage. If the inheritor cannot get a new mortgage or pay off balance, the house will be sold to settle estate's bill of the mortgage. Any cash left after sale will then go to inheritor. IF the estate has enough cash to pay all remaining bills AND pay off the house the inheritor can receive the house as paid for. Or, the people getting the mortgage can buy insurance that will pay off the balance when the mortgagee dies. ONLY IF its a jointly held mortgage with a spouse or child or partner held together as joint owners with right of survivorship and their name is on the mortgage as well, can the survivor continue existing mortgage, but as joint owner, they technically don't "inherit" the house, they were joint owners anyway. Laws in each state may vary. JOE (in NY)

i recently placed a rental property in a trust, and made an LLC the beneficiary. i attempted to get insurance on the property and the insurance company is asking to see the trust document. my understanding is trust documents are private and not to be shown to anyone. should i allow the insurance company to see the trust?

What is a “put”? I think the housing market will fall, can I short my house by using a put? And buy it back later?

Did the parents “suddenly pass away“ or did they conveniently pass away?

Question: me and my husband have a revocable living trust; it has our house, bank accounts, etc. in it. Our adult children have decided they don't want to sell the house... instead, they want to continue to own it and rent it out. Can they keep ownership of the house? (We live in AZ)
