What is a Property Protection Probate Trust?
A Property Protection Probate Trust (PPPT) is a type of Trust that can protect your property against outside interference.
How does a Property Protection Probate Trust work?
Unlike other Trust Wills that are activated upon your death, a PPPT immediately transfers your desired assets into a Trust to be managed by your chosen trustees.
Why are Lifetime Property Protection Probate Trusts important?
PPPTs are an excellent way to protect your entire estate from:
- Expensive probate costs.
- Your children experiencing divorce or bankruptcy.
- Inheritance taxes being paid on your estate by your beneficiaries’ children when they die.
- Your beneficiaries passing away before their partners.
Can I still use my estate when it’s in a Trust?
Yes. A PPPT will allow you to still use your assets even when placed into a Trust e.g. if your house is placed into a trust, you can live there until your death.
