What Makes a GREAT ESTATE PLAN? In a nutshell, the key elements that hold an effective estate plan together are teamwork, collaboration, and communication. With that in mind, you are only as strong as your weakest link. Estate planning is an interactive process with mutual accountability. The most successful clients take an active role, delegate control, show a desire to understand and self-educate. OUR ESTATE PLANNING MODULES: Our firm has designed a Seven Module Estate Planning Process that begins with financial planning and ends with charitable giving. As shown in the graphic below, each module is simply a piece of the estate planning puzzle, and each component complements the others
We will also discuss the importance of measuring your team’s performance and making adjustments as needed. What are the best benchmarks and metrics to review and evaluate your team to make the appropriate shifts throughout the planning process? 3. Risk Management Often clients ask what the differences are between things like risk management, asset preservation, or estate & financial planning. The industries can do a better job explaining these differences, however, it is important to also note the commonalities between each area of expertise. We will break down the different elements each team member may be responsible for, as well as the products and services that each offers.
4. Core documents and essential components to a comprehensive plan While estate planning can be complicated and even cumbersome at times, there are a small number of items that make up the backbone or the core of your plan. These are your six primary estate planning documents that spell out your wishes for the future and establish clear instructions for the others that will potentially be involved in decision making on your behalf. In addition to the core documents, we will discuss ancillary matters including but not limited to umbrella insurance, long term care insurance, and family law documents such as post-nuptials and pre-nuptial agreements. We will also address the use of the separate writing for the disposition of your tangible personal property. Finally, we will discuss the appropriateness of a letter of intent, bible/roadmap, ethical will, and funding instructions for implementation. 5. Customization of Trusts Many times, a trust or multiple trusts are critical components of a successful estate plan. While there are many best practices available, as well as the most common trusts, choosing the appropriate trust structure for your situation is key to taking your plan to the next level.
SIX KEY COMPONENTS OF A GREAT ESTATE PLAN:
1. Building a Road Map for Estate Planning and Financial success A great estate plan begins with organization and clear direction. While it is essential to have your six basic estate planning documents completed, a superior estate plan encompasses your complete financial picture. This picture includes all aspects of how you wish to build a secure financial future for you and your loved ones. 2. Team building: Original building of team One common factor across many of our successful case studies is the coordination with a proactive team of advisors. After building your estate and financial planning team, you must develop a strategy to create the glue for the team. Who leads the team? Who organizes the team meetings? Who is responsible for creating communication between the team members? Choosing the right team members can be a defining factor in the effectiveness of your planning process. Some of the critical factors to look for are: credentials, personal style, cohesive fit, ability to communicate.
Some of the items to consider are as follows: traditional vs. alternative trust provisions, unitrust, special needs trust, total discretionary trust, hybrid trust. We will also review the use of powers of appointment and trust protector provisions. These custom trust structures allow for greater flexibility and control. Customization will allow you to make more explicit decisions that provide greater protection for your heirs. 6. Legacy component While last on our checklist, the legacy component is undoubtedly one of the most important pieces of your plan. Many clients feel that they will deal with charitable giving as they go, on an annual basis, rather than incorporate it into their estate plan. However, charitable giving during your lifetime can provide enormous income tax savings that you may otherwise lose at the time of your passing. A combination of multiple charitable giving techniques including cash gifts, planned gifts, including gifts to a donor-advised fund both during your lifetime and upon your death will supercharge your estate plan.

Why Real Estate is a
Sound Investvement There are lots of reasons why you might want to invest in real estate. The stock market is currently strong, but with potential volatility across different sectors, here are some really good reasons to allocate some market profits into sound real estate markets.
Real estate has a high tangible asset value. Tangible assets are physical things — like property, computers, and equipment — that are worth money. Real estate, especially, will always have some kind of monetary value. Compare this to investing in stocks where, if the market crashes, it is possible that something you paid $500 for could suddenly be worth $0. With real estate — land and real property — your investment will always be worth something.
Appreciation. Real estate tends to appreciate in value over time. Not only will the building or home itself likely grow in value, but the actual land that it’s built on will also usually be worth more over the years. In some markets, it’s not uncommon for the land to be worth more than the house that stands on it — or for the land value to continue to rise even without a house on it. A couple from Northern Ohio, bought a piece of land for $10,000 in the 1980s, a lakefront lot in a small undeveloped community. They had intended to build on it and make it a summer home, but never did. Over the years, houses went up all around their lot, and the community grew. Now the lot — still empty — is worth right around $1 million. It will be part of their legacy to their children.
You can improve your property value. One of the best things about real estate is that you can improve a property if you want — add amenities like a pool, or improve it with an updated kitchen or bath. You can then either rent it out or sell it for more than you paid for it. Since real estate is a tangible asset, any improvements you make to it will increase its value. Some things that bring the biggest return for your money are garage door replacements, kitchen remodels, and deck additions.
Build equity. If you invest in actual houses, your equity in the home should increase the longer you own it. Equity is the portion of the home you own outright — as opposed to the part a bank may own if you have some kind of loan or financing. As you pay off your loan, you generally build more equity in a property (the exception could be if the market takes a severe downturn, but downturns are generally temporary, so if you can hold on to the property until the market stabilizes, your ability to build equity should resume). Also, as the value of the property appreciates through the years, the house becomes worth more, adding to your equity.
Real estate may offer better returns than the stock market. In Florida, “Real estate has been appreciating at 6% to 8% a year. Compare that to a money market investment of 1% or 2%, and real estate offers a much better return.” Nationally, singlefamily homes offer yearly returns of 9% — a yield that’s tough to come by with stock investments.

FINE FEATURED ARTICLE
So many options. There are all sorts of ways to invest in real estate. Buying your own house counts. Or you can buy a fixer-upper, renovate it, and flip it. You can rent out a home, offer a lease-option agreement (rent-to-own), or invest in a REIT or a crowdfunding app. Whatever your level of commitment, you can probably find a way to invest in real estate. A REIT is a real estate investment trust. Individuals can invest in the trust that, in turn, usually owns and manages a large number of real estate investments that produce income — things like shopping malls, hotels, and resorts.

Diversify your portfolio. This is another way to lower some of your risk, especially if you’re investing lots of dollars in other opportunities. Most experts recommend diversifying your portfolio so you won’t lose everything in one fell swoop if the market where you’ve most heavily invested happens to go south. Real estate is an excellent place to park some of your money — a place much safer than many other investments. Ever hear the term, “safe as houses”? There’s a reason people use it.
Some real estate crowdfunding apps include Fundrise, Crowdstreet, and Roofstock. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission places limits on much you can invest annually in any crowdfunded offering. This limit depends on your annual income and your net worth. For instance, if either your annual income or your net worth is less than $107,000, you can invest either $2,200 or 5% of your income or net worth (the lower of the two) in crowdfunding. Yes, this is confusing — what the SEC is saying is that if you meet the income or net worth limit ($107,000) you can invest either 5% of your income or your net worth (whichever of the two is lowest), or $2,200. Once you understand what those two figures are, you may invest whichever is higher. For example: if your annual income is $95,000 and your net worth is $65,000, 5% of those (respectively) would be: $4,750 and $3,250. Therefore, $3,250 is the amount you use to compare with the $2,200 amount. Because $3,250 is greater than $2,200, that’s the maximum amount you’re allowed to invest in real estate in a given year.
Unique tax benefits. If you own your own house, you can deduct mortgage interest. State and local property taxes are also usually deductible. For investment properties, you can often deduct operating expenses and costs, insurance, property taxes, and maintenance.Capital gain taxes (the taxes you pay if you sell investment properties, or your own home within certain limitations) are 15% to 20%, typically lower than your personal tax bracket, which can be a huge advantage over other types of investments.If you use the money from a sale of one property to buy another property, you can defer your capital gains. This means you aren’t taxed at all on that money because it went directly toward the purchase of another property. Make sure you report to the IRS that this is what you’ve done, or they’ll send you a letter asking why you haven’t paid taxes on a property sale.
Real estate doesn’t have to tie up a lot of cash. In many instances, you can put down as little as 10% on a property, then essentially use the bank’s money to grow your investment. Lending is becoming more accessible and friendly to buyers, according to a Florida real estate agent. More so than what it was after the housing crisis. They seem to be lessening constraints, and local banks are lending more to builders and doing more in house portfolio loans — so there is just a better environment than ten years ago.
