What is the difference between a Ladybird Deed and a Land Trust?

A Ladybird Deed only avoids probate. This allows the owner to maintain full ownership and control of the property during their life, and will not affect Medicaid eligibility. The owner can also change their mind and remove the remainderman from the deed without their consent. However, when the owner dies, any judgments against the remaindermen can attach to the property if homestead is not maintained.

As for a Land Trust, this avoids probate, but also provides privacy and asset protection for the beneficiaries. The asset protection piece is the biggest difference between a Land Trust and a Ladybird Deed. Along with this, there is more flexibility to add multiple layers of successor beneficiaries. A Land Trust is managed by a trustee, which can be different from the beneficiaries and provides convenience and professional management of the property.

Another smooth closing from start to finish! 🏡✨

Honored to represent this amazing family for the 4th time. As they transition into an almost empty-nester lifestyle, they decided it was time to sell their beautiful home, enjoy renting for a few months, and patiently wait for the right opportunity for their next chapter.

Nothing means more to me than repeat clients who continue to place their trust in me and my services. Thank you for your loyalty, confidence, and friendship throughout the years.

🏡✨ First-Time Homebuyer Success Story ✨🏡

It was a privilege to help Gevette, a dedicated healthcare professional, purchase her very first home. During our initial consultation, she shared exactly what she wanted—from location and schools to the smallest details that mattered most. We viewed homes just once and found the perfect match!

With the support of an amazing team, a smooth transaction, Hometown Heroes assistance, and successful negotiations that included a brand-new roof, closing day couldn't have gone better.

Thank you, Gevette, for trusting me throughout this journey, and a special thank you to Dan Longman and the entire team who helped make homeownership more affordable and achievable.

Congratulations to Gevette and her son on this exciting new chapter! Wishing your family many years of happiness, love, and beautiful memories in your new home. ❤️🏠

All I can say is this…

Hiring a professional, experienced Realtor is key when negotiating.

A Realtor doesn’t just open doors. There are a million other highly important factors involved — market knowledge, contract expertise, negotiation skills, risk management, and protecting your client’s money.

It’s very easy… just Google a Realtor’s name and check their history. Experience leaves a trail.

Don’t jeopardize your hard-earned money by choosing the wrong representation.

Choose wisely.
