What everyone should know about estate planning and property ownership
When buying a property, it’s important to own that property in a way that aligns with your estate planning goals.
Should you own property jointly, solely, or as tenants in common? Understanding the pros and cons of different ownership options can help you make informed decisions about how your assets will be distributed on your death.
The effect of marriage, separation and divorce on Wills and estate planning
It probably isn’t a surprise to most people that marriage and divorce are big events that impact on a person’s property and parenting rights. What many aren’t aware of, however, is that these events also have a significant effect on their Will and where their superannuation death benefit entitlements may be paid.
What is a Deceased Estate?
A “deceased estate” (also simply called an estate) refers to all the assets and liabilities left behind by a person when they pass away.
Assets can include real estate, vehicles, bank accounts with a positive balance, shares, personal belongings (such as jewellery and household goods), unpaid employment entitlements, life insurance policy rights, contractual rights, intellectual property and rights to royalties. Domestic pets are also considered part of the estate.
