Estate Planning, trusts, right of occupancy versus life estate.

http://sacramentoestateplans.com

Right of Occupancy v. Life Estate Many revocable trusts provide that a surviving spouse or another beneficiary has the right to live in a residence rent-free for the remainder of his or her life.  This type of provision is particularly common in a second marriage when the person who created the trust (the Trustmaker) comes into the marriage with a home that is separate property and wants the surviving spouse to be able to live there before the property passes to the Trustmaker's children or other heirs. Sometimes this occurs when one adult child caretaker ha lived with the parent in their final years, and the parent wants to allow the adult child to live in the home for a period of years as a "reward" for faithful care. Right of Occupancy:  The right to live in a home that does not belong to you is typically referred to as a "life estate," or a "right of occupancy."  They are not the same thing. A right of occupancy does not grant the holder any kind of title to the property in question.  During any period of occupancy, the title is held by the trustee of the trust.  The holder has the exclusive right to occupy the property, although usually subject to certain conditions. Unless spelled out in the trust document, there are often disputes between the person occupying the property and the remainder beneficiaries about who is responsible for the expenses regarding the property, such as utilities, property taxes, insurance, maintenance, etc.  The law is unclear about whether someone with a right of occupancy can bring in other residents, like a new spouse or life partner.  Also unclear is whether the Trustee can sell the underlying property and terminate the right to occupancy. Life Estate:  A life estate is transferred through a recorded deed.  A life estate tenant, by law, is responsible for upkeep and repairs, mortgage payments, taxes, and other annual charges, unless the trust says otherwise. Estate Taxes:  There is also an important tax issue in play.  If the right of occupancy is provided in a marital deduction trust of a high-net-worth Trustmaker, and the surviving spouse doesn't provide a full, unfettered right to occupy the residence for life, the settlor's estate could lose the marital deduction on the residential property and be subject to estate taxes.  An example of this is when the right of occupancy would terminate if the surviving spouse does not live in the home or allows others to do so. Consult with an experienced estate planning attorney about your estate planning wishes.

Things to Consider When Picking an Executor

Things to Consider When Picking an Executor The role of an executor is to effectuate a deceased person’s wishes as declared in a will after he or she has passed on. The executor’s responsibilities include the distribution of assets, according to the will, the maintenance of assets until the will is settled, and the paying of estate bills and debts. An old joke says that you should choose an enemy to perform the task because it is such a thankless job, even though the executor may take a percentage of the estate’s assets as a fee. The following issues should be considered when choosing an executor for one's estate. Competency: The executor of an estate will be going through financial and legal documents and transferring documents from the testator to the beneficiaries. If there are legal proceedings, the executor must make all necessary court appearances. There is no requirement that a testator has any financial or legal training, but familiarity with these areas does avoid the intimidation felt by lay people, and potentially saves money on professional fees. Trustworthiness: The signature of an executor is equivalent to that of the testator of an estate. The executor has full control over all of an estate’s assets. He or she will be required to go through all of the papers of the deceased to confirm what assets are available to be distributed. The temptation to transfer assets into the executor's own name always exists, particularly when there is a large estate. It is important to choose a person with integrity who will resist this temptation. It makes sense to utilize an individual who is an heir to fill the role to alleviate this concern. Availability: The work of collecting rents, maintaining the property, and paying debts can take more than a few hours a week. Selecting an executor with significant obligations to work or family may cause problems if he or she does not have the time available to devote to the task. If an executor must travel great distances to address issues that arise, there will be more of a time commitment necessary, not to mention greater expenses for the estate. Family dynamics: Selection of the wrong person to act as executor can create resentment and hostility among an estate’s heirs. A testator should be aware of how family members interact with one another and avoid picking someone who may provoke conflict. Even the perception of impropriety can lead to a lawsuit, which will serve to take money out of the estate’s coffers and delay the legitimate distribution of the estate.
