If I am the beneficiary of a revocable living trust which is specific and only has one house in it can I assign my beneficiary rights to some one else? Also can I draw a note between myself and the person whom I am assigning the note to for the sales price and record a trust deed against the note. I live in Utah. I other words I am selling or assigning the trust which owns the house. The trustee will remain the same, only the beneficiary will change.

Can the remaining spouse change beneficiaries in a revocable trust?

Yes, a remaining spouse can change beneficiaries in a revocable trust, as long as they are the trustee or have the authority to do so. Revocable trusts allow the grantor to modify the terms, including beneficiary designations, at any time during their lifetime. However, if the trust becomes irrevocable upon the death of one spouse, the remaining spouse's ability to change beneficiaries may be limited. It's essential to review the specific terms of the trust and consult with a legal professional for guidance.

If a house was transferred to a living trust can it be sold?

You need to check the document that created the trust to find your answer. All the provisions of a trust and the powers of the trustee are set forth in that trust document. It creates a self governing entity. The trustee can only perform the functions set forth in the declaration. If the trustee has the power to sell real estate the trustee can execute a deed that conveys the property to a new owner. If there is no power in the trustee to transfer real estate explicitly recited in the trust document, then you will need to petition a court to issue a license to sell the real estate or reform the trust to include a power of sale.

Is an irrevocable trust a living trust?

Yes. There are two types of trusts, living (intervivos) and testamentary. The living trust is created by a living person(called the settlor or trustor). The testamentary trust is created by the will of a deceased person. Living trusts are designated as either revocable or irrevocable depending on the authority of the settlor. If the settlor has the power to cancel or revoke the trust, it is a revocable trust. If the settlor has no power to revoke it then it is an irrevocable trust. Since the revocable/irrevocable distinction is determined by what the settlor can do while he or she is alive, the trust had to have been made during the settlor's lifetime. Hence, an irrevocable trust is a living trust. On the other hand a trust that is set forth in a person's will is revocable during the life of the testator simply by a modification of the will through a codicil. Once the testator has died that trust becomes irrevocable.
