Best Answer

You need to review the document that created the trust to determine how that transfer must be handled. There should be a provision that directs how to appoint a successor trustee. The property can be transferred by a successor trustee as long as the power to sell or transfer real estate is granted in the trust. If there is no such provision you need to take the matter before a judge in a court of equity. You should contact an attorney who specializes in real estate law who can review the trust and explain your options.

Can a trustee of an irrevocable trust deny access to the beneficiaries of property included in the trust?

Generally, yes. The purpose of a trust is to transfer title to the property to the trustee. The trustee manages the property according to the provisions in the trust. The beneficiaries do not "have access" to the trust property only the proceeds therefrom as set forth in the trust instrument. Any and all powers and obligations the trustee has should be explained in the trust instrument. You should obtain a copy to help you understand what they trustee can do and what your rights are as a beneficiary. If you think the trustee is acting in conflict with the trust you could contact an attorney in your area for advice and options available to you.

Can a trustee obtain a second mortgage under an irrevocable trust if the grantor is now deceased?

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.

How do you get a deed for land that is being given to you?

A will that transfers real property must be probated in order for title to the real estate to pass to the beneficiary legally. The beneficiary doesn't have to arrange to have a deed in their name, the probate is a public record and can be cited as the legal source of title. If the beneficiary wishes to obtain a deed in their own name that can be accomplished after the estate has been probated. It should be done by the attorney who handled the estate. The beneficiary, as the legal owner, would convey the property to a straw. The straw would convey the property back to the beneficiary and the beneficiary would become the record owner of the property in the land records. This transfer should be done under the supervision of an attorney who specializes in real estate and probate law.
