Trust and Estate Terms

Terms for Trusts & Estates

Dealing with Trusts and Estates can be a complicated matter. It can go from complex to incomprehensible if you do not understand the terminology. To help you better understand, we have compiled a list of some of the most common terms used in trust and estate matters to assist you. If you need any additional clarification, we are here to assist you. Please call us at 877-464-1066 for any needs you may have.

Common Terms For Trusts And Estates

Appointer – The appointer is the person who can appoint a new trustee or remove an existing one.

Appointment – The act of appointing, giving an asset from the trust to a beneficiary; or the name of the document which gives effect to the appointment. The trustee’s right to do this, where it exists, is called a power of appointment. Sometimes, a power of appointment is given to someone other than the trustee, such as the settlor, the protector, or a beneficiary.

Beneficiary – A beneficiary is anyone who receives benefits from any assets held by the trust.

Bridge Loan – A bridge loan is short term financing that is typically paid back or refinanced. Often times the term on a bridge loan can range from 3 to 12 months.

Estate Planning – The process of arranging ones property and affairs to insure their disbursement in the most effective way possible.

Power of Attorney – A power of attorney is a legal instrument that empowers another person as agent to deal with one’s property and affairs.

Executor – The one nominated in a Will and or appointed by Probate Court to manage and distribute a decedent’s estate in accordance with the terms of the Will.

Fiduciary – A fiduciary is a person to whom property or power is entrusted for the benefit of another.

Proposition 13 – California Proposition 13 is a constitutional amendment enacted in 1978. The Proposition 13 Amendment limits the tax rate increase that can be charged annually on real estate in California. The proposition restricts the annual increases of assessed value of real property to an inflation factor, not to exceed 2% per year. California Proposition 13 also prohibits reassessment of a new real estate property tax base year value except for in cases of either change in ownership, or completion of new construction.

Proposition 58 – California Proposition 58 allows for the exclusion for reassessment of property taxes on transfers between parents and children. If the sale or transfer of real property is between a parent and their child, under limited circumstances, the property will not be reassessed if certain conditions are met and the proper application is filed in a appropriate amount of time. Proposition 58 allows the new property owner to avoid property tax increases when acquiring property from their parents. The new owner’s taxes are instead calculated on the established Proposition 13 factored base year value, instead of the current market value when the property is acquired from the parent.

Protector – A protector may be appointed in an express, inter vivos trust, as a person who has some control over the trustee usually including a power to dismiss the trustee and appoint another.

Settlor – This is the person or persons who creates the trust. They may also be known as a Grantor.

Trust – A trust is an arrangement in which ownership of assets is transferred to a Trustee, who thereafter has a fiduciary duty to distribute the trusts assets to the beneficiaries of the Trust.

Trust Deed – A trust deed is a legal document that defines the trust such as the trustee, beneficiaries, settlor and appointer, and the terms and conditions of the agreement.

Trust Distributions – A trust distribution is any income or asset that is given out to the beneficiaries of the trust.

Trustee – A person, corporation who administers a trust. A trustee is considered a fiduciary and owes the highest duty under the law to protect trust assets from unreasonable loss for the trust’s beneficiaries.

If you require a third party bridge loan to take advantage of the benefits of proposition 58, please call us at 877-464-1066 so that we may assist you.

California Proposition 58 Parent to Child Transfer of Property Tax Rate

Posted on June 22, 2018 by admin

California Proposition 58 Parent to Child Property Tax Transfer

California Proposition 58 and Property Taxes

When inheriting real estate from a parent, one of the primary considerations in determining if you will keep or sell the property is often the expenses associated with the home. Typically one of the greatest expenses is the homes property taxes. In California, Proposition 58 grants qualifying children the ability to retain a parents low Proposition 13 protected property tax rate. Doing so could mean a savings of thousands of dollars each year. Commercial Loan Corporation helps beneficiaries and heirs qualify for their Prop 58 property tax benefits by providing bridge loans to trusts and probate estates so that an even distribution can be made.

Information About Proposition 58

In 1986, California’s Proposition 58 became effective and with certain limitations, it allows for the exclusion from reassessment of property taxes on real estate transfers between a parent and child. In the State of California, real estate is reassessed at market value if it the home is either sold or transferred. The property value reassessment may cause property taxes to increase dramatically in some cases. Preventing a property tax reassessment may save a beneficiary or heir thousands of dollars annually depending on the difference between the existing assessed value and the current reassessed property value. If the transfer of property is between a parent and child, under certain circumstances the property will not be reassessed if all required conditions are met. If applicable, an equal distribution must be made to all beneficiaries and a beneficiary is not permitted to contribute personal funds to equalize the distribution to qualify for an exclusion from property tax reassessment. An application must also be properly filed in a appropriate amount of time to be eligible for a Proposition 58 exclusion from property tax reassessment. When done properly, the new owner’s taxes are calculated on the parents established Proposition 13 factored base year value, instead of the current market value.

California Proposition 58 Limitations

There are some limitations to Proposition 58. For instance, on non primary residences transfers of the first $1 million of real property. The $1 million exclusion applies separately to each eligible transferor. These transfers may be result of a sale, gift, or inheritance. A transfer via a trust also qualifies for this exclusion. Additionally, when applicable an equal distribution must be made to all beneficiaries and a beneficiary is not permitted to contribute personal funds to equalize a trust distribution. In the situation where fund are needed to make an equal distribution, a third party loan is required. That is where Commercial Loan Corporation can assist you by providing a bridge loan to the trust or estate. The Commercial Loan Corporation third party bridge loan provides enough cash to the trust or estate so that all parties can receive an equal portion of the trust or estate assets and enables one or more of the beneficiaries to receive the home as their portion of the distribution.

Additionally, Prop 58 defines a child as child born of the parent(s), a stepchild while the relationship of stepparent and stepchild exists, a son-in-law or daughter-in-law of the parent(s), and any adopted child who was adopted before the age of 18. Spouses of eligible children are also eligible until divorce or, if terminated by death, until the remarriage of the surviving spouse, stepparent, or parent-in-law. Information found at https://trustandestate.loans

California Proposition 193

California Proposition 193 grants the same rights to a grandchild as Proposition 58 grants to a child. An eligible “grandchild” for purposes of Proposition 193 is any child of parent(s) who qualify as child(ren) of the grandparents as of the date of transfer.

There are some additional requirements and exclusions for Proposition 58 and Proposition 193. Please call us at 877-464-1066 so that we can assist you.

What Clients Are Saying About Commercial Loan Corporation

Posted on June 1, 2018 by admin

Commercial Loan Corporation Reviews

In a world where to increase profits many lenders opt to use overly complicated phone systems to replace live customer support; we believe that customer service holds a greater value. At Commercial Loan Corporation we are determined to provide you with the best customer service experience possible.

Regardless of if you are an attorney representing a client on a trust loan or a borrower looking for third party financing to make an equal distribution of a parents estate; our professional staff is here to assist you. We are happy to take as much time as is needed for you to understand the loan process and will keep you informed along the way. In addition to setting the highest standards in customer service, we also fund the majority of our trust and estate loans with our own capital. This is important because it allows us to underwrite the loan to our own guidelines, quickly grant an approval you can rely on and also complete your financing more quickly; often times in as little as 7 days.

We don’t stop there. Unlike most of our competitors in the Trust & Estate loan marketplace, we do not charge any form of loan prepayment penalty or set any minimum days of interest collected requirements. That may not sound like a big deal, but depending on your loan amount and interest rate, it could potentially save you tens or thousands of dollars in pre-payment penalties or interest fees! We even go a step further and if you pay down your trust or estate loan, we will recalculate your payment based on the new lower outstanding mortgage balance.

Perhaps the best indication of customer service is communicated through the words of some of our past clients. Here are just a handful of testimonials from past Commercial Loan Corporation customers and business partners; more are located here:

“I am a California licensed Professional Fiduciary and needed a hard money loan for one of my clients. My client had been turned down for a Second TD by two conventional lenders before I received a cute ad mailer from Commercial Loan Corporation. From my first phone call to Commercial Loan Corporation (when the owner actually answered the phone!), to my last call with Autumn after the loan had been funded, I enjoyed every moment of this loan process. (How many lenders can you honestly say that about?) I look forward to our next loan together and would not hesitate to recommend Commercial Loan Corporation to anyone needing short term funds. You will be treated professionally and with kindness every step of the way.”
– Clarice H. – Grover Beach, CA

“CLC was: Professional, Efficient, Thorough, Organized and Extremely Prompt in getting my Loan approved, signed, closed, recorded and Funded. They were ready to Fund within 5 business days! I highly recommend CLC. It was a complete pleasure to work with Mike Riggs and Autumn Skerritt! I’m very glad my attorney recommended CLC. I’m sure you will be extremely pleased, as well.”
– Sonia T. – Costa Mesa, CA

“Exceeded expectations. Best service I have experienced with ANY lender! Went above and beyond at every opportunity. Took great care of a client that we referred to them. Response times to any communications from the client or from our office were prompt and complete. Loan processing times were FAST.”
– Menke Law Firm, APC, – Long Beach, CA

The Commercial Loan Corporation Loan Process

Posted on May 4, 2018 by admin

Commercial Loan Corporation – California Private Money Lender. Joseph Minton, Autumn Skerritt & Kerry Smith

Here Is How The Process Works For A California Trust or Estate Private Money Loan From Commercial Loan Corporation

By: Autumn Skerritt

Hi, I am Autumn from Commercial Loan Corporation. As the loan processor, I typically get introduced to the Trustee or Borrower after our Account Executive has informed them of the loan details and provided them with a clear understanding of the mortgage fees. After making an introduction call to the client, I put a “Needs List” together. A needs list is a list of conditions that I will need the client to provide before we can close the trust loan, estate loan, probate loan or mortgage. At Commercial Loan Corporation we try to make this process as painless as possible for our Trustees and Clients. My goal is for the “needs list” to have less items on it than there are syllables in the word tri-ni-tro-phen-yl-meth-yl-ni-tra-mine. The best part is, doing a trust or estate loan with Commercial Loan Corporation is easier than pronouncing the word.

To give you an idea of what type of conditions we need on a typical trust or estate third party mortgage, here is a great example of a typical “Needs List” that I send out to our clients:

Copy of the Appraisal done for the Trust or Estate
– If you do not have one, we can order one for you
Copy of the Trust and all Amendments (if applicable)
Copy of the Trust Tax ID Number (if applicable)
Copy of your ID
Proof of Repayment Funds or a Pre-Approval letter for future financing. We can also assist you with this if needed.
Copy of Insurance Declaration Page (we can get this before funding if you don’t have it handy)
Copy of Death Certificates so title can file an affidavit of death (we will need the originals for closing)
Bank Account information for the Trust (if applicable)

I always review the needs list with the client so that I may answer any questions they might have. On occasion, I also use my ESP to answer some questions they have before they even ask them. Here is an example of some commonly asked questions.

When conducting a third party private money trust loan, most clients have been instructed by their counsel that created the Trust to get the home appraised at the time of death. We can often times use that appraisal for our trust loan. Doing so saves the client hundreds of dollars and can speed up the trust loan process. Once I receive that appraisal, I submit it to our review department to confirm the value still holds true and that the home is in habitable condition. That appraisal review process typically takes 24-48 hours to complete. “What if we never got an appraisal done at the time of death?” GREAT question! I am happy you asked that…. we have can offer a few simple options for you. We can order an appraisal for you! Appraisals are usually completed in 2-5 business days; depending on the area where the home is located. A full residential appraisal typically costs between $350-$550, depending on the area, approximate size and value of the home.
A Copy of the Trust and all Amendments. This condition is only applicable when we are providing a mortgage to a trust. If a client does not have this information available, it is typically easy to solve by calling their Trust attorney and requesting them to email a copy over to me. Often times trust documents ranges from 5 to over 100 pages in size. I know it’s a pain if you are one of the lucky ones that have a very thick trust and no access to a scanner. To help we can always send you an overnight FedEx envelope so you can provide us with the trust documents that way. Once I receive the trust information, I review it with title and escrow. We confirm how many trustees there are and that they have the ability to sign on behalf of the trust. This review process typically takes about 24 hours.
The Trust Tax ID Number is the condition that I typically get calls from clients on the most.The most common question is “where I can find our trust tax ID #”. The Trust Tax ID Number is not typically in the Trust paper work. It is issued by the IRS. I usually request an old tax form from the client which shows that tax ID number. Some clients have accountants associated with the trust and can also them for the Trust Tax ID Number. The Trust Tax ID Number is needed because at the end of each year we send out a 1098 to each and everyone of our clients so they have it for tax season.
The reason why we ask for a current ID is to confirm that the Trustee name matches our clients. We also use it to confirm the mailing address on the ID.
Because our loans are typically “short term” loans we want to make sure that the client has a plan or the ability to pay off the mortgage. We request review either the most recent bank statement showing that the funds are available for repayment, or an approval letter from a license mortgage banker showing you qualify for permanent. We can also provide you with permanent financing if needed and assist you with getting approved.
The reason we require a Copy of the Insurance Declaration Page is because while our loan is out, we need to make sure that it is covered by insurance in case of damage or disaster. If a client has a hard time getting this policy, no problem. I can always move this to a funding conditions and help the client obtain a policy from the insurance agency. If the home is not currently covered by hazard insurance, we have a handful of insurance agents we can recommend that will take excellent care of the client.
We ask for a Copy of Death Certificates on every file because 8 out of 10 clients have not filed an Affidavit of Death on title. An Affidavit of Death is used to notify businesses, courts, and other places of someone’s death. This legal document is a sworn statement that legally states someone has passed away. The affidavit of death is typically used in conjunction with a certified death) In order to lend to the trust after passing, this must be filed before the new deed gets filed. This is a added service we do for all of our clients at no extra charge. We want to make sure that its done the right way, so years after our transaction you will not run into problems.
We ask for the Bank Account information for the Trust (if applicable) because we need to know where to wire the loan proceeds. Because the Trust is borrowing the money, the funds must go to the trust. We typically cannot send the money to an individual when lending to a trust. To be extra cautious we do call the Trustee at the time of closing and ask them to verbally give us the account and routing number. We do that to help prevent fraud. We do our very best to protect our clients. Some of the issues I have ran into with past clients on this, is the bank account has been dissolved at the time of death and the trust is no longer associated to a bank account. In that case we ask the borrowers to call their current banker and ask them to open up a new account in the Trusts name. If the clients have trouble with that, we can contact the attorney to help find a solution, that works best for that client (so far, we haven’t had to do that yet).

That was a mouthful! The most important thing to keep in mind is that I am here to serve you. I am also just a phone call away and you can reach me at 877-464-1066 if there is anything that you need. So here is a quick recap of the Commercial Loan Corporation loan process:

I send out needs list to the borrower
Get everything back on the needs list from the client
I open title and escrow (that comes back within 48 hours typically)
I then submit the appraisal for review to confirm value of home (that comes back within 24 hours)
I do a final review of all the conditions along with title and appraisal review
Once everything is verified, I call the borrower and attorney and give them great news that we are ready to wrap up the trust loan. I then confirm the loan amount, net amount and all fees and terms with both client and attorney.
Once everyone agrees on terms and fees, I draw loan docs and releases them for review to the client and attorney (turn time to draw loan docs in about 3 hours)
Once the Client and attorney give Commercial Loan Corporation the thumbs up on the loan docs, escrow will send a notary out to the client and sit with them while they sign the loan document package. The signing typically takes 30 minutes.
After the documents are verified, the loan is funded!
WAIT!!!! One more thing…. We always ask our clients to let us know how their experience was with Commercial Loan Corporation. Here are some testimonials from past Commercial Loan Corporation clients.

Thanks to California Proposition 58, a parent is permitted to transfer their low property tax rate to a child on an inherited piece of real estate. Unfortunately, in some situations receiving an exclusion from property tax reassessment can be easier said than done. Specific steps must be taken to receive your exclusion from your local County Tax Assessors Office and if they are not done correctly, you may lose your ability to preserve your parents low property tax rate. Commercial Loan Corporation specializes in providing loans to estates and trusts. These specialty private money mortgages assist our clients in qualifying for the Prop 58 property tax exclusion from reassessment. In addition to providing third party private money trust and estate mortgages, we can also put you in contact with a qualified estate attorney, probate attorney, fiduciary or California property tax consultant to assist you in qualifying for your Proposition 58 benefits.If you need an estate or trust loan, or have questions, please call us at 877-464-1066 or complete our information request form located here.

Proposition 58 Exclusion From Property Tax Reassessment

In 1986 California enacted Proposition 58. Proposition 58 allows for an inheriting property owner to avoid a property tax reassessment when acquiring real estate from their parents. The inheriting owner’s property taxes are calculated on the established Proposition 13 factored value, instead of the current market value, saving them potentially thousands of dollars annually. This is especially important if one of the children inheriting the property wants to either keep the home as a residence or as an investment property. If the parent has owned the home for an extended period of time, there is a high probability that Prop 13 has kept their property tax rate much lower than it would be if the property was reassessed at current market value.

Under Proposition 58, retaining a parents low property tax rate can become complicated when there is not enough liquid assets in the trust or estate to create an equal distribution to all siblings. In this situation a third party loan placed against the inherited home may be the only option to make an equal distribution. The additional cash made available from our 3rd party loan allows each of the siblings to receive an equal share of the assets. If the third party loan is not handled properly, the County Assessors Office may reject your request for a Proposition 58 exclusion from property tax reassessment and the property taxes will be calculated on the homes current assessed value. If you, one of your siblings or a client of yours is in need of a third party loan to take advantage of California Proposition 58’s exclusion from property tax reassessment, call Us at 877-464-1066. We specialize in providing private money loans to trusts and estates and can assist you.

California Residential Property Tax Specialist, Proposition 13 and Proposition 58

California Residential Property Tax Specialists

The Importance Of Working With A Residential Property Tax Specialist

Working with the right business professionals can make all the difference. When it comes time to secure a Proposition 58 Exclusion From Property Tax Reassessment, through Prop 58, that could not be more true. The process of obtaining your exclusion from property tax reassessment can be littered with pitfalls. Even just one small mistake can be the difference between obtaining an exclusion or not. Retaining a Parent’s or Grandparent’s low Proposition 13 property tax rate can save you potentially thousands of dollars each year. That is why it is important to have a good Private Money Lender, Attorney and or California Property Tax Specialist on your side to help guide you.

When providing clients with a third party loan to a trust, we always recommend that they work with either a Trust & Estate Attorney, Qualified Trust Administrator and or a Property Tax Specialist. Attorneys and Residential Property Tax Specialists provide different services. Some California Residential Property Tax Consultants specialize in assisting clients in obtaining a Proposition 58 exclusion from property tax reassessment. Their expertise in these matters can be invaluable. The best of them even have experience working for the County as a Property Tax Assessor. This gives them a great deal of insight into what the assessors office will need in order to grant your exclusion. It can be especially helpful in complex situations where time is of the essence. In California, you only have three years to file for the exclusion from property tax reassessment. A long process can also delay the distribution of a trust in some cases.

The complexities of obtaining an exclusion from property tax reassessment should not be understated. Unless you deal with California’s Proposition 58 Exclusions From Property Tax Reassessments on a regular basis, it can be difficult to avoid mishaps. Here are just a few examples of issues that a qualified California Property Tax Consultant can assist you with.

Common Proposition 58 Exclusion From Property Tax Reassessment Mistakes:

Not conducting the 3rd party financing properly and causing a property tax reassessment to occur.

Not keeping track of each eligible transferor’s $1 million limit; thereby exceeding the $1 million limit and triggering a reassessment for the overage.

Avoiding situations where an acquiring beneficiary lends money to the trust when funds are needed to make an even distribution. The California Board of Equalization views this as a child buying out another child as opposed to a parent to child transfer. The exclusion for reassessment requires a transfer from parent to child.

These are just a few examples of circumstances where a California Property Tax Specialist can assist you. If you are in need of a third party loan for a trust, a qualified Trust & Estate Attorney or a Property Tax Consultant referral, please call us at 877-464-1066 so that we may assist you.

Why Choose Commercial Loan Corporation?

Posted on April 5, 2018 by admin

Commercial Loan Corporation, A California Proposition 58 Lender

Why Commercial Loan Corporation

There are several things that separate Commercial Loan Corporation from other California private money lenders. Perhaps most important is that Commercial Loan Corporation specializes in loans to trusts with the specific goal of retaining the original prop 13 tax status. There are a few lenders that consider these transactions occasionally but these loans are a small percentage of what they do. It is critically important that this transaction is done correctly to ensure that the county doesn’t reassess the property. There are a lot of mistakes that can be made if it’s not done correctly. We work directly with both the customer and the attorney to assist in this process. We have adjusted our documents with the help of numerous attorneys to provide a seamless transition when the property is distributed from the trust to the individual taking the property in the distribution from the trust. We understand the process better than most, because it’s all we focus on. And we are the lender so we make all of the decisions ourselves. You are right at the source.

Another very important thing that separates us from anyone out there is our policy on early payment. You will find that other private money lenders want to make as much interest as possible off of the transaction. This is not a bad thing. Companies are in business to make a profit. However, our policy on prepayment penalties helps us stand apart from other lenders. Most lenders, in addition to their loan costs, require a pre-payment penalty of some sort. This can be a standard 6 month or 1 year early payoff penalty or in some cases can be a specific number of months of required interest. If a lender requires that you make 3 or 6 payments of interest on a loan prior to being paid off, it is the same thing as a prepayment penalty. A requirement for certain number on month’s interest guarantees a lender that the loan will be more profitable. If a borrower is required to make a specific number of interest payments, it adds to the cost of the loan. For example, if a borrower is required to make 90 days of payments on a loan, it is the equivalent of adding 2 to 3 percent of the loan amount in loan costs.

Commercial Loan Corporation has no prepayment penalties of any kind. None. This can be extremely beneficial to the customer financially. If the money to pay the loan back is readily available we have worked with customers that pay off our loan immediately eliminating virtually any interest costs on the loan. This means that the initial fees charged for the loan is the entire cost of the loan.

Here is an example…

Say the customer has a personal line of credit available to pay off our loan from their lending institution. We can work with them to determine the best timing to fund our loan depending on the availability of their funds. If we fund our loan on Monday, they can pay off our loan on Tuesday, effectively eliminating the accrual of interest. This can be a great tool to potentially save thousands of dollars in interest payments.

We also work with the attorney and the customer to decide when to file the re-conveyance showing that the loan has been paid off. Some of the attorneys we work with want to wait to file the reconveyence (proof the loan is paid off) until they are satisfied that the county has concluded the Exemption for Reassessment of property taxes. We can accommodate the preference of the attorney in the timing of filing the reconveyence.

Don’t let any of this confuse you, we are here to answer any questions you have on the subject and look forward to helping! We tend to do business the old-fashioned way. We do what we say we’re going to do and we focus on speed and customer service.

For assistance, contact us at 877-464-1066 or call our California Account Executive Mike Riggs at 714-442-8901 or mriggs@cloanc.com.
