SECOND GRANTOR DETAILS (IF THERE IS ONE)

TRUSTEE

The trustee controls and manages all the assets in your Living Trust. Most people appoint themselves as trustee so they retain control of their assets during their lifetime. If you are considering appointing someone else, ensure the person is both trustworthy and competent.

SUCESSOR TRUSTEE

A person is incapacitated if they are impaired by a mental or physical condition. Being incapacitated means the person can't make rational decisions.
Who will manage your trust if you and become incapacitated?

ASSETS

Provide a detailed and accurate description of each asset. For financial accounts, include the account number and financial institution. For real estate, include the legal land description.
Assets with high monetary or sentimental value can be transferred into your trust.

You can transfer:

  • Real estate

    • Description needs: Address, City ST Zip and the Legal Description listed on the Deed for the real estate.

An asset is something you own, such as real estate, vehicles, and personal possessions. Your money, including investments and cash, is also an asset.

Transferring assets into your trust, also called funding your trust, is an important step. Right now you're just listing assets to create an inventory to help your trustee. After you complete this document, we'll guide you through the simple process of funding your trust.

e.g. My house at 123 Street, Block 1, Lot 2; or my bank account with Bank of America, account number 1234567.

GIFTS

  • You can only gift items you transfer into your Living Trust. Gifts can be made to people, charities, and business entities, such as a partnership or corporation. If you give a gift to a person with a disability, make sure you understand the impact the gift may have on their eligibility for Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid. Cash gifts may disqualify them from these benefits. Your Living Trust can only control the assets you put into the trust. Any gifts you list on this page will be given to the gift recipients after you pass away.

BENEFICIARY DETAILS

The beneficiaries you name will inherit the residue of your trust. The residue of your trust includes all assets remaining in your trust after specific gifts have been given.
You can name an individual, charity, or business entity, such as a partnership or corporation, as a beneficiary.

If you name a person with a disability, make sure you understand the possible impact on their eligibility for Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid.

Who are your beneficiaries?

ADDITIONAL TERMS

If there are no other resources left after you die, your trustee may be compelled to pay your unresolved taxes or legally enforceable debts and expenses out of your Living Trust.

Final expenses may include expenses related to last illness, burial, and funeral expenses.
