Ok. I get questions all the time about these "estate planning" seminars. Beware! Some of them are nothing more than trying to sell you expensive living trusts which most people don't even need. Then they suggest transferring your home into a living trust. Uh, no. Don't do that. Most people simply need a properly drafted Will along with important powers of attorney for health care and financial matters. You can even do a Transfer on Death Deed which determines where your residence goes upon death, but you file it now. Plus your Will can place property in trust. Find an experienced estate planning attorney in your area.
