Which is better to do, a living trust or a last will?

Answered by attorney Jayne L. Sebby (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Jayne L. Sebby
Living trusts can be expensive and time consuming to create and are usually reserved for larger estate ($1 million or more). Wills are much easier to create and can be changed at any time. A simple will would allow you to leave the home to her. Be aware that because you aren't married, there may be tax consequences to consider with either choice. You both should also have living wills, power of attorney for health care, and power of attorney for financial matters that permit the other person to act on your behalf in emergency situations.

You and your other siblings can refuse to accept your shares of that part of your mother's estate if the estate is still open. Or you can sell your shares to your brother.
