Land Trust Services
A land trust from Midwest Bank is a simple, inexpensive estate-planning tool, ideal if:
- Your primary asset is your home
- You want to avoid the time and expense of probate
- You want privacy of ownership
- You want to pass real estate to heirs without a will
With a land trust, the property's recorded title is held by Midwest Bank as trustee, while you retain control and management of your property.
With a land trust, you'll enjoy:
- Privacy of ownership. Your identity is not disclosed to the public.
- Ease of conveyance. You are able to mortgage and sell your property conveniently, without having to obtain deeds from all beneficiaries and spouses.
- Succession of ownership. Your interest in the property automatically passes to your designated heirs upon your death, without a will and avoiding probate.
