Trust or Lady Bird Deed: Which is Better for Avoiding Probate in Florida? - 2025

Описание: Discover if a Lady Bird Deed is better than a Living Trust for your Florida estate plan.

In this 2025 guide, we break down the key differences, pros, cons, and setup time to help you avoid costly probate on your real estate.

A Lady Bird Deed (enhanced life estate deed) lets you keep full control of your home during your lifetime while transferring it directly to beneficiaries upon death—no court involvement!

Perfect for simple estates with just a primary residence.

But what about a Revocable Living Trust? It's ideal for complex assets like investments, businesses, or multiple heirs, covering everything from stocks to retirement accounts.
