Deborah S., thank you for that info. We are in NJ, contemplating a move to SC. Our trust was done here and will be revised in SC. The lawyers here who did our trust are licensed in NY but wouldn't touch getting TMC out of our trust, they said NY requires too much paper work. I am debating hunting up a NYC lawyer to have him get ours out of the trust, which it has been in since purchase in 2005. The suggested solution from a lawyer at the firm here was to get it out of the trust and just do not probate the will because everything else will be in the trust. I think some states require some sort of probate even with a trust, because my brother had to do that in Fla even though our parents had everything in trusts.
