All the usual protections are present..In Reply to: Title Holding Trust Question/Protection posted by Walter on June 25, 2003 at 8:50 PM : Ward, : Am I understanding this correctly? I am in Arizona. I have the homeowner in distress ( John Doe ) Quit Claim Deed his property located at 1212 E. Jones St. into a Title Holding Trust we call the 'Doe 1212 Jones Street Trust'. The verbage on the Quit Claim Deed would be under the Grantee 'XYZ LLC as trustee of the Doe 1212 Jones Street Trust, UDT dated 6-25-03'. John Doe would assign bennificial interest of the trust to me personally with my corporation XYZ LLC still as trustee. When I sell the property ( or more accurately the beneficial interest in the trust ) to the end consumer, the new end consumer can at their option continue to use my LLC as trustee if it is agreeable to me, or complete a substitution of trustee form and record it. Is that right? : The second part of my question is ... What is to stop some savvy/slimy individual from finding just such a Quit Claim Deed recorded and simply create his own title holding trust under the same name with XYZ LLC as the trustee and himself as the original beneficiary ( therefore eliminating the need for an assignment of beneficial interest from John Doe )which would pose a conflict to my legitimate trust? : I am sure I am missing something simple. : Thankyou, Walter, Arizona is one of those rare states that requires the beneficiaries of a trust to be enumerated on the face of the deed that transfers title of the involved real property to the trust. So much for privacy! When you resell the property your trustee would deed it out of the trust and vest it directly in the name of the buyer. Nobody uses the Substitution of Trustee form since the beneficiary is the one who signs it—and the minute they do they’d lose their anonymity. If you found that rare buyer who wanted to keep the property vested in the Jones Trust, then you’d assign 100% of your beneficial interest in the trust to them (its not recorded) and have your trustee deed the trusteeship to their designated trustee as the successor trustee of the trust. Now to your slime ball question. Hope this helps.
