Gaining Protection from Creditors and Legal Action
If the family home is held in trust it is usually protected from creditors of the beneficiaries. A common situation in New Zealand is when parents have personal liabilities often related to their business interests, and they wish to protect their home from these liabilities (in the event they are unable to meet them).
In most circumstances a trust protects the family home away from these personal liability risks, that is, as long as the home has been fully gifted to the trust at least five years prior to any financial difficulties occuring.
