Does my Life Estate Qualify for Real Estate Tax Relief?
|
Q. My mom has owned a home in Fairfax County for over 20 years. Last year she came to your firm and did an irrevocable Medicaid Asset Protection Trust. Your firm deeded her house into the trust, but had her keep a life estate in the house. She now wants to apply for real estate tax relief, which you suggested, but Fairfax County is saying she may not qualify due to the fact
that the trust her home is in is irrevocable. Is this true? How about in Maryland or DC, or in other parts of Northern Virginia? We have some friends in similar situations. Thanks for your help!
