Estate management for Santa Barbara retirees
Hi there! My wife and I just retired in Santa Barbara, and we’re starting to think about organizing our estate for our kids. We’ve got some savings and a house, but we’re not sure how to set things up properly, like trusts or wills. It’s all a bit daunting, and we’d rather not spend a fortune. I’d love to find a local accountant who knows estate planning and can guide us through this. Any suggestions on who to contact or where to look?

Congrats on retirement! Estate planning can feel overwhelming, but it’s great you’re getting started. When my parents were in the same spot, I found a site listing Accountants in Santa Barbara, CA that was really helpful. It had local CPAs who specialize in estate planning and management for retirees. I reached out to one near Hollister Avenue, and they were fantastic at explaining trusts and wills in a way that wasn’t confusing. They also kept costs reasonable, which was a big relief. The site lists services and typical prices, so you can find someone affordable. Take a look and maybe call a few to discuss your needs!
