Do you know when certain real estate should not be titled to your family’s living trust?

Do you know when certain real estate should not be titled to your family’s living trust?

One of the most important parts of having a living trust designed to avoid probate is to have those assets which would normally require probate assigned to the trust. By this I mean that the trust needs to be the owner of the probate-causing assets (more technically, the Trustee of the trust is the owner, but in his or her capacity as Trustee). In Idaho, one asset that will almost always implicate the need for a probate after death is real estate. So, when I help clients establish a living trust for estate planning, I also assist them in getting their real estate retitled into their trust. This typically means preparing, executing, and recording a new deed for the client’s personal residence which names the trust as the titled owner of the property going forward (again, technically, the deed shows the Trustee of the trust as the titled owner, but in their capacity as Trustee of said trust). If a client owns more than one residence, we will be repeating this process for each.
