Jake Smalley (Please Read) - Creative structure required involving Trust and family sale
17 April 2024 | 3 replies
She will get each beneficiary to sign off on allowing this to happen, lessening their inheritance cash-wise but keeping the family in a home.My idea is that the trustee daughter could purchase the home, but could do so instead through a sort of owner-financing where the Trust finances the asset to her directly rather than buying it in full at great cost and taking out a mortgage on an already paid for property:- Property is in Trust and is fully paid off,- Trust finances the property to Trustee for closer to market value, and payment can still be set at 1500- No/less down payment required- Any interest rate, maybe 0- Tenant family makes rent payment of 1500, which pays off the property and pays into Trust- Beneficiaries' % share accrues gradually as payments are made- Set future balloon payment if necessary (if Balance required at a certain time, for college, etc.)This would decrease the out-of-pocket cost for the Trustee purchaser, and increase the amount that each beneficiary will receive (eventually).I have no Trust experience, though, and I'm hoping to hear from the experts.
