A living trust, unlike a will, can keep your assets out of probate proceedings. A trustor names a trustee to manage the assets of the trust indefinitely. Wills name an executor to manage the assets of the probate estate only until probate closes.
A living trust in Texas can cost anywhere from $500 to $5,000 to set up, depending on the complexity of the trust and the amount of assets involved. The average cost is typically around $1,500.
Probate avoidance is the only goal. While this is an admirable goal, a trust may not be the only way to avoid probate. You have straightforward wishes. Youre motivated by tax savings or Medicaid eligibility. Youre not great at follow-through.
Keep it safe, but accessible Some safe storage suggestions include a locked home safe or filing cabinet or a fireproof safe box in your home or office or in a safe deposit box as long as your successor trustee knows the location of the original documents and can get a hold of them after your death.
A trust allows you to be very specific about how, when and to whom your assets are distributed. On top of that, there are dozens of special-use trusts that could be established to meet various estate planning goals, such as charitable giving, tax reduction, and more.
