Should I Put a Property into a Trust?
In this episode I want to talk about trusts and the due-on-sale clause. In my private coaching group, a lot of people ask if they should put property into a trust to mitigate the risk of due-on-sale provision. So here’s my take on it. What We Cover: What is a trust - definition What is due-on-sale clause and its origins Cases in which due-on-sale clause might be violated The risks of putting a property into a trust What I prefer to do in terms of due-on-sale provision How to mitigate the risk if you have owner financing property Applying the substance over form doctrine in your deals The due-on-sale provision is just not as mean and scary as it sounds. I've not found it to be a big risk factor in what we do. But I'm really against the deal structures that don't make sense, so just keep things clean and simple. Interested in real estate investing?
