Setting up a trust for real estate is a way to manage property ownership and ensure a smooth transfer of assets. A trust allows the property to be held and managed by a trustee for the benefit of designated beneficiaries, often used in estate planning to avoid probate, maintain privacy, or manage assets for minors or dependents.

A will also plays a key role in real estate planning. It names an executor, who is responsible for managing the estate, including selling or transferring real property according to the deceased’s wishes. If there is no will, the estate goes through probate, and the court appoints an administrator to manage and distribute assets based on provincial laws.

This process can delay the transfer of property and may not reflect the deceased’s intentions.
