Best Answer

That depends on the terms of the trust and the law of the state where the trust was created. In general, when there are more than one fiduciary acting on either a trust or estate a majority of the fiduciaries must act together. When there are two, action has to be unanimous. Many trusts that appoint two trustees avoid this problem of unanimity by providing that each trustee may operate independently of the other. If the trust is written with this provision then one of the two trustees may close the trust account on his/her own.

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.

Can the HOA put a lien on an irrevocable trust property?

It is unlikely that an irrevocable trust gives the property any immunity from liens.AnswerYes. If the property is owned by an irrevocable trust the HOA can place a lien against the property and the trust.
