This document outlines several benefits of placing property in a land trust: 1) It protects privacy of ownership by keeping the landowner's identity confidential in public records unless required by law. 2) It facilitates estate planning by allowing the landowner to choose how the property passes to heirs without probate. 3) It allows for joint ownership while safeguarding against unauthorized actions or providing convenience for transactions. 4) It protects the property from personal judgment liens involving the landowner or co-owners.

1. THE BENEFITS OF A LAND TRUST
PRIVACY OF OWNERSHIP
Did you know that anyone can search the public records and determine that you are the owner of a
certain piece of property? Did you know that local newspapers frequently run lisƟngs of transacƟons
idenƟfying the buyer, seller and purchase price? In today’s informaƟon age, protecƟng your idenƟty is
criƟcal. With your land trust, your idenƟty as the property owner remains confidenƟal and is not
disclosed to the general public unless required by law.
ESTATE PLANNING
Your land trust allows you to choose how your property passes to your heirs without incurring the
expense and delay associated with probate.
FACILITATES JOINT OWNERSHIP
You can delegate the power to direct the trustee to one or several beneficiaries safeguarding against
unauthorized acƟons or providing convenience in carrying out transacƟons.
PROTECTION
Personal judgment liens involving you or co-owners do not automaƟcally aƩach to the property in trust.
