How to Protect Your Land for the Next Generation

If your land is part of your legacy, it’s worth protecting. Here are 5 strategies to make sure it’s passed down the right way:

Create a Land Trust or LLC: Helps avoid probate, split ownership, and simplify management.
Have a Clear Will: Specify who inherits what — and why.
Talk With Heirs Now: Avoid surprises later by setting expectations.
Use Conservation Easements: Protect land use and potentially earn tax benefits.
Keep Records Organized: Titles, surveys, tax documents — all in one place.

Land is more than an asset — it’s a responsibility. Plan now to preserve its value.
