Cost of the Title Holding (Land) Trust Transfer System
The charge for using this proprietary system is $1,800 + 1% of the ‘purchase price’ with a minimum of $3,000 and a maximum of $10,000, which includes:
- simple land trust
- beneficiary agreement
- assignment of beneficial interest
- occupancy agreement
- any relevant addendums/riders specific and unique to the particular transaction
I have a team of processors (which includes attorney review) that
keep the paperwork cohesive and up to date with current statutes and evolving case law.
Additional costs will include:
- escrow (approx $1,000)
- title insurance (unless the seller’s existing policy covers assignment to a trustee)
I will also be able to recommend a trustee that is familiar with servicing these bill-paying trusts, and their monthly fees range from $40-$140 per month based on the value of the collateral.
Sellers frequently want help knowing how to translate their intent into the language of the trust, as it is much different than the familiar purchase contract.
That’s where I can provide the greatest value.
Clients are happy to have help avoiding unexpected and unpleasant ’surprises’ because they didn’t know all of the right questions to ask up front.
Don’t waste any time compiling the documents we’ll need to put your land trust together.
