Did you know that your heirs may have to liquidate your home or rental properties immediately after your death, unless you create an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT)?

Most people are interested in passing their wealth to their heirs. With the demise of the baby-boomer generation, an enormous transfer of wealth will occur during the coming years. The government is poised to capture this wealth through the estate tax, which is imposed upon death.
