Summary
When a trust or estate holds real property, the question of whether to sell, retain, lease, or distribute comes up early. It is rarely the decision that matters most. Mark Cianciulli, Esq., CPA, Founder and Broker at The CREM Group, works through the earlier questions counsel should be raising: the scope of the fiduciary's authority, the duty to investigate a known condition, the status of an occupying beneficiary, and what assumptions a valuation actually rests on. Four case studies ground the analysis, including a beneficiary living in trust property without a lease and a valuation complicated by a configuration that does not match public records. Attendees will leave knowing which unresolved facts change the advice and how to document the reasoning behind a fiduciary decision.
