Matt and I first met over 15 years ago when I worked in real estate sales and sold him his home.

We’ll learn today state planning, using property trust and how these apply to property management space. We will also explore why having an estate plan for your family and business is a better safeguard than just having a will. What are the benefits and why an estate plan carries over and outlasts your beneficiaries and the importance of this key detail.
