Help Me Raise Money for MDA

I am helping raise money for MDA. I'm excited to tell you that I have chosen to serve as an MDA Jailbird and am being Locked-Up...that's right, I'm going behind bars to help Jerry's Kids©. In order to be released on good behavior, I need your help to raise my “bail.”

My bail has been set at $3,200.00 and if everyone I know makes a tax-deductible donation, I’ll reach my goal quickly!

To make a secure, online donation before 08/19/10, go to www.joinmda.org/telupw2010/sravenscroft/.
Thank you for your consideration.

Three ways to avoid Probate for Real Estate

Would you like to avoid the probate court process, upon your death, with your home or other Arizona real estate? This can be done by (1) deeding the property to your revocable trust; (2)recording a beneficiary deed and listing your beneficiaries; or (3) titling the property as joint tenants with right of survivorship or community property with right of survivorship. With a trust, the trustee can execute a deed to your beneficiaries upon your death. With the beneficiary deed or "right of survivorship" deeds, the beneficiaries simply record your death certificate to vest title. Be careful though, with the "right of survivorship" deeds, the other tenant has immediate ownership interest and the tenant's creditors can reach the property. Thus, if you really do not own the property with someone else, use the trust or beneficiary deed.
