Additional Properties owned (ie: rental properties)

Cost is $175.00 for Deed Preparation. The San Diego County Recorder’s Office will charge $100.00 for the recording of each property Deed that is not your primary residence.

Out of State Real Property Owned

Many times the cost is less to contact an attorney in the state where the real estate is located to prepare and record the Deed to your Trust (to avoid a probate of that property in the state where the property is located). That said, our office does prepare out-of-state Deeds and records them by mail. Cost will depend on state in which theproperty is located.

Business Ownership

If you own one or more businesses, there is a $75.00 cost to add a Business Assignment to Trust for each business you own to your estate plan.
