It depends on the purpose of the trust.  Any kind of asset protection requires and irrevocable trust.  But be careful, irrevocable means irrevocable, and if you change your mind, or the circumstances change, too bad.  An irrevocable trust is like a third person, it has its own social security number, pays taxes, and has a list of people who control it.  A trust is simply the list of instructions used to determine how and when the assets in the trust can be used.  The trust can hold all of the items you listed, the deed to a house, and two bank accounts.  The trust can also be the recipient of funds from a will, but does not include the will.

How can I take my daughter's name off the deed to my house.

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Estate Planning lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Your daughter will have to sign off on a new deed.  There is no way to just "take" her name off the deed without her consent and cooperation.
