Never, ever move your home into a trust without this one critical step! Once you put your house in a living trust, you’re no longer the owner...The trust is! In many states, that means your homeowner's insurance might not cover you anymore. Your house floods? You get nothing! So, make sure to call your insurance company and say, 'I need to name the trust as the additional insured.' Just that one piece of paper can save you from a financial disaster! #moneytips #livingtrust #mortgage #revocabletrust #estateplanning Disclaimer: My content is for educational purposes only, it is not legal or tax advice.
