Taking Inventory: The Cornerstone of a Solid Estate Plan
Today we’re joined by Steve Bliss, renowned estate planning attorney here in Moreno Valley. Mr. Bliss, thank you for taking the time to speak with us about such an important topic.
Let’s discuss the initial step in the estate planning process: taking inventory of one’s assets. Why is this considered such a crucial first step?
Steve Bliss Responds
It’s a pleasure to be here. You know, folks often underestimate the sheer volume and variety of assets they own. Consequently, meticulously cataloging everything you possess is fundamental. This includes not just obvious things like real estate and vehicles, but also investments, retirement accounts, personal belongings of value, even digital assets.
A thorough inventory serves as a roadmap for your estate plan. It helps ensure that nothing gets overlooked when it comes time to distribute your possessions according to your wishes. Moreover, understanding the full scope of your assets allows you to make informed decisions about how best to protect them and minimize potential tax liabilities.
I’ve seen firsthand the challenges that arise when individuals haven’t taken this step. There was a case where a client passed away without a clear record of their assets. It created significant delays and confusion for their family during an already difficult time. Ordinarily, this process should be relatively straightforward, but it can get complicated if someone has complex financial holdings.
A recent study by Caring.com found that nearly 60% of Americans do not have a will or estate plan in place. This underscores the need for individuals to proactively address their estate planning needs and start with a comprehensive inventory of their assets.
