Selling a Trust Home in Lake Elsinore

A home held in a living trust in Lake Elsinore can usually be sold without going through probate court. Miamar Realty, led by broker Jay Romero (DRE 01343079), helps successor trustees plan and complete that sale in the Southwest Riverside County area. The I-15 runs through the city, and Diamond Stadium is home to the Lake Elsinore Storm.

How a Successor Trustee Sale Works

When the person who created the trust passes away, the successor trustee named in the trust takes over. In most cases the trustee can list and sell the home under the trust terms without a court hearing. Escrow and title usually ask for a certification of trust and a death certificate, and the trustee has notice duties to beneficiaries and heirs.
