Illinois Trust Administration: Selling Real Estate

Responsibilities of a Trustee When Selling Chicago Real Estate

In this video, our Chicago real state attorneys discuss how a trustee responsible for the administration of a trust has the fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of the beneficiaries of the trust, within the parameters laid out by the trust document. When an estate holds real estate, a trustee must decide whether to transfer the real estate to one of the beneficiaries. This will likely results in a reduction of the share that the beneficiary is due from the remainder of the estate's assets.
