The trustee must always look to the trust to determine what powers the trustee has in managing the trust property. All the powers of the trustee are set forth in the trust. If the power to mortgage the trust property is not included then a judge would need to make that possible. You should speak with an attorney who can review your situation and determine what your options are.

No, a trustee does not have beneficial rights to the corpus of a trust. The trust ownership is split between legal and beneficial.

Is it possible to arrange an irrevocable trust with the same person as grantor trustee and beneficiary?

Can a grantor who is also the trustee break an irrevocable trust?

Warning! An irrevocable trust is not created when the grantor (trustor) is also the trustee. By transferring their property to a trust of which they are the trustee the grantor has retained control over the property. Irrevocable trusts are usually set up for tax purposes. The grantor cannot retain any control over the property in order for the trust to qualify as an irrevocable trust. The trust you describe has failed and left the trust property exposed to creditors and taxes. You need to consult with an attorney who specializes in trust law and tax law.

What is a Complex Non Grantor Irrevocable Discretionary Trust?

In my experience, this would be considered, in layman's terms, a trust in which the grantor, when alive, created a discretionary trust, then the gantor died. Now, the trust is in the hands of the trustee appointed by the grantor, which makes it irrevocable. When the grantor was alive, it was revocable. Now, the complex part usually means that in any given tax period, the trust had distrubutions of principle of some sort. I hope this helps.

Can you change domicile of an irrevocable trust?

An irrevocable trust cannot be amended. An example of this is an Oklahoma case in which the Tax Commission could tax a trust created in Oklahoma as a resident domiciled trust even after the grantor and trustee moved to Nevada. http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=ok&vol=/appeals/2001/&invol=275718 Often, this is taken into account by a skilled attorney and the irrevocable trust specifically permits the trustee to change the domicilie of the trust.
