What are the four basic types of trusts?
Revocable trusts can be amended or revoked during the grantor's lifetime. Once the grantor dies, the trust typically becomes irrevocable.
Irrevocable trusts cannot be changed after they're made. They're often used to fund legacies for children or grandchildren, or make gifts of property or life insurance.
Testamentary trusts are usually included in a person's will. They take effect after the grantor has died. They are also considered revocable because your will can be changed anytime during your lifetime.
Living trusts take effect during the grantor's lifetime.
