What are the Benefits of Setting up a Property Trust

17th February 2017damteqProperty Trust

A trust fund, or deed of trust as it is also known, is a great way to help protect your loved ones and ensure they are provided for in the future.

A trust fund can:

  • Protect your assets– so they cannot be used to pay for care home fees
  • Guarantee an income for your loved ones– providing financial stability for their future
  • Help to limit inheritance tax– ensuring your money, shares and property are passed on in the most tax efficient way.

A trust can help you avoid using the value of your home to pay for care home fees.

Should you need it, have you thought about how you will pay for residential care home fees? Did you know that the government can use your house to pay for fees? A trust is a great way to protect your home so it cannot be touched and ensure your estate is passed on to your loved ones.

Trusts Can Help To Limit Inheritance Tax

A protected trust can help you to limit inheritance tax costs ensuring that your family receive the full gift you wish to give to them. This is because assets placed in trusts are taken out of your estate and deposited somewhere else. This means that the chosen asset will no longer be in your estate and may not be subject to as much inheritance tax when you die.

See our property trust page, for more information on protected property trusts or get in touch to talk to one of our advisors.
