Property in Trust

Hi. In 2023 [August] I and my husband were given advice on putting our home in Trust for our sons as joint executors.<br> My husband had a degenerative disease and has since passed away [Oct 2024].<br> The advice we were given on the benefits of a trust was I fear not good advice and I would very much like to remove the Trust status from our family home. my sons are in full agreement to this and I am asking advice on the reversal of the trust before it has been registered. Would this be possible ? regards Dianne Hayes

Dianne - it is possible to apply to update the register but reversing the trust invariably requires more but not something that directly impacts the registered information.<br> For example if you applied for and register a restriction on the register to protect the trust then you can apply to cancel it as explained in the PG 24 linked to in the previous post<br> Most private trusts are created/enshrined in some sort of trust deed or agreement and that's what needs to be dealt with but that's very much 'off' the register and private/personal between you/your sons/trustees - in that respect I would recommend seeking legal advice/assistance as appropriate. That part won't involve us as we won't have the specific details/deed/agreement for example&#160;

Hi,<br> Can someone Please tell me how long the delay is for final documents when you place your property in Trust<br> We have been waiting since February&#160;<br> Thank you
