Samenvatting:

Finally, an Estate Planning Guide for Californians

Every Californian’s Guide to Estate Planning helps you understand the basics of leaving money and property to loved ones and charities, and naming a guardian for children—with a special focus on issues unique to California, like:

• how community property rules affect inheritance and taxes
• minimizing capital gains on high-value real estate
• legal and tax rules that apply to non-citizens and U.S. permanent residents
• choosing a guardian for your minor children
• understanding California’s rules for property tax reassessments and inheriting a low property tax rate, and
• avoiding California’s slow and expensive probate system through options such as transfer-on-death deeds.
