How to Create a Living Trust Online - California Living Trust Guide

How to Create a Living Trust Online in California

  1. Choose a California-specific online trust service that includes attorney review and meets state requirements
  2. Complete the questionnaire about your assets, family, and wishes (15-30 minutes)
  3. Name your trustee and successor trustee who will manage the trust if you become incapacitated or pass away
  4. Designate your beneficiaries and their shares (who inherits what percentage)
  5. Review your generated documents carefully to ensure all information is correct
  6. Print, sign, and notarize your trust documents (required in California)
  7. Fund your trust by transferring assets (record deed, update accounts)
  8. Store original documents safely and give copies to your trustee

How to Transfer Your House to a Living Trust

  1. Obtain a grant deed transferring property from yourself to your trust (included in our package)
  2. Fill in the property description (copy from your current deed exactly as written)
  3. Sign the deed and have it notarized (California requirement)
  4. Complete a Preliminary Change of Ownership Report (PCOR) form (required in California)
  5. Record the deed at your county recorder's office ($15-$75 fee)
  6. Notify your mortgage company (transfer doesn't trigger due-on-sale clause)
  7. Update your homeowner's insurance to show trust ownership
  8. Keep the recorded deed with your trust documents in a safe location

What to Do After Creating Your Living Trust

  1. Sign and notarize all trust documents to make them legally valid
  2. Record your property transfer deed with the county recorder's office
  3. Update bank account titles to include trust name or designate trust as beneficiary
  4. Change beneficiaries on retirement accounts and life insurance (these typically use beneficiary designations, not trust ownership)
  5. Transfer vehicle titles if desired (optional but recommended for valuable vehicles)
  6. Update your homeowner's and auto insurance policies to reflect trust ownership
  7. Give copies of Certificate of Trust to financial institutions as needed
  8. Store originals in a fireproof safe and tell your trustee the location
