What A Charitable Remainder Trust Can Do For You

Estate planning docsThe website of Charitable Management Services contains an article by J. Michael Pusey (CPA) discussing the basics of charitable remainder trusts (CRT).  

The article disussess the tax and planning benefits of a CRT and the type of property contributions appropriate for such a trust, and concludes that “CRTs are fairly flexible in the planning stage but rather inflexible once in place, so plan carefully.”  Michael J.
