If you want your family to be spared the hassle and unnecessary stress of a confusing probate sale, then getting your estate plans in order is a must.
It’s not something we like to think about–selling an estate after a loved one has died is never an easy experience. Unfortunately, it’s a necessary part of life, and important for your finances. If you want your family to be spared the hassle and unnecessary stress of a confusing probate sale, then getting your estate plans in order is a must. To do this, you have to know the difference between truth and myth. Here are 5 myths about estate planning that you need to be aware of.
1. It won’t happen to me.
You can’t live your life assuming something awful will happen every single day, but you do have to be prepared. Believing that only the elderly need to plan their will and estate is a mistake. Anything can happen to you, at anytime, and you need to be ready for the worst if you want to protect your family.
2. Everything is automatically joint in a marriage.
Not so–you still have to sign legal documents. A marriage does not automatically guarantee a transferred mortgage. Without looking into Advanced Medical Directives and Durable Powers of Attorney, it’s possible you may run into severe issues when a partner passes away. Estate planning in a marriage still requires planning.
3. I can do it by myself.
This isn’t smart in the long run. Sure, you may save a few hundred bucks at first when you plan your estate without any professional legal help. But if you make a mistake, or you’re dead or disabled before you can finish planning, everything goes downhill. To make sure everything goes smoothly, make sure you hire some kind of legal assistance.
