Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need a trust if I own lake-adjacent property?

    A trust keeps real estate transfers private and faster than probate.

  • Can my health care power of attorney and financial power of attorney be the same person?

    Yes. Many people choose a single trusted individual to handle both medical and financial decisions. However, you can also appoint different agents if you prefer to divide responsibilities. We’ll help you weigh your options.

  • Will my out-of-state timeshare complicate things?

    No. We include ancillary affidavits so your executor avoids another probate.

  • Can a POA start only if I’m incapacitated?

    Yes—ask about adding a springing trigger signed by two physicians.

  • How often should I review my plan?

    Every three years or after buying new property in Troutman’s I-77 corridor.
