Safeguard your home from care fees, remarriage risks and financial difficulties — preserving it for your children.
Request a Free ConsultationA Property Protection Trust (PPT) is a type of trust written into your Will that ensures your share of the family home passes into trust on your death, rather than outright to your surviving spouse or partner.
This means your share of the property is protected and cannot be taken by care home fees, lost through a new marriage, or accidentally diverted away from your children — giving you peace of mind that your home will ultimately benefit those you intend.
Your share of the property is held in trust and cannot be used to fund your survivor's care home costs, protecting it for your children.
If your surviving spouse remarries, your share of the home is protected and cannot pass to a new partner or their family.
Ensures your share of the property ultimately passes to your children or other chosen beneficiaries, not stepchildren or other unintended recipients.
Your share is protected from creditors and financial difficulties that may affect the surviving owner after your death.
The trust is established within your Will and comes into effect on your death. Your surviving spouse retains the right to live in the property for the rest of their life — the trust does not disrupt their home life in any way. They simply cannot sell the property and keep your share, or allow it to be taken by care fees or a new partner.
