"If you own property, place it in a trust to bypass costly and public probate. Keeping your affairs out of the court's register maintains privacy and preserves control over administration." - Elizabeth Tresp


"Trust is crucial for capacity planning. A revocable living trust not only designates someone to manage your assets in case you can't but also outlines your wishes if you become incapacitated.”  -  Elizabeth Tresp

 

"I always advise it should at least be held in your trust, right, your revocable living trust, if not in one of your LLCs that you're investing in." - Johnny Nitti
