A trust is a legal arrangement that allows property to be held for the benefit of a named beneficiary. There are a variety of trusts that can fit almost any legal purpose. However, if a trust is not a grantor trust or the trust is created by two or more people, you will need to set up a tax identification number for the trust. A grantor trust is a living revocable trust in which the grantor maintains control of the trust and is the primary beneficiary.
