 Recordkeeping is simple. Just remember my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule. If you can remember 2-2-2, your living trust recordkeeping will be easy. If you buy a house and you want that home to be owned or controlled by your living trust, the house has to be titled into the name of your living trust. That means that the deed to the home has to show that the home is owned by your living trust. As far as recordkeeping goes, the deed that shows that your home is owned by your trust is proof that you transferred your home to your living trust. How does that tie into my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule? Take that proof, the deed, and make a copy of it. You now have two pieces of proof that your home has been titled into the name of your living trust. That's the first two of my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule. What about the second two of my rule? Your living trust has a recordkeeping section called Schedule A. That's the part of your trust where you keep track of assets your living trust controls or owns. You were given two sets of estate planning documents, the original set and the copy set. Since the original set and the copy set each have a Schedule A that goes with the trust, that's the second two of my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule. Using the Home Deed example, on each of the two Schedule A's, you would write down information that shows when and what, in this case the home, you've just added into your living trust. Okay, I've told you about the first and second twos. Now let's learn about the final two. As I mentioned a moment ago, you were given an original set of your living trust-centered estate planning documents and a copy set. Each set has a Schedule A with it. You've written down the fact that your trust controls your home on both Schedule A's. But what about those Home Deed copies? Remember those two pieces of proof I spoke about at first? The final two of my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule is to put each piece of proof in my home example. It would be that two deed copies into a large envelope that should be kept with each set of your living trust-centered estate planning documents. The original set and the copy set. Now you know my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule. Two pieces of proof for every asset your trust owns or controls. Two Schedule A's that show trust ownership of each asset. And finally two envelopes to hold the pieces of proof that prove your trust owns or controls a particular asset. That's it. You've got it. That's my 2-2-2 recordkeeping rule. I hope you've learned something from my little video. And please feel free to share it with friends and family.
