Product Description
Over the last 50 years, it has become increasingly common for real estate conveyancers and estate planning attorneys to have their clients take title to real property in trust or to put title to real property into trust, either by inter vivos conveyance or by a testamentary devise in the client’s will. The forms of title holding trusts are not as uniform as they once were and the recording of trustee’s certificates under G.L. c. 184, § 35 has become more common than recording the actual trust instruments. As a result, title problems frequently arise when the real property is being conveyed out of a trust, especially when the original trustees have deceased or become incompetent and the trust has terminated. This program analyzes these common title problems, how they arise, and how they can be resolved in order to facilitate the conveyance of the trust’s real property.
