DW and I were talking about what we'd do if one of us died. Financially, we have set our pensions to be 100% survivorships. We plan on leaving the higher social security to age 70 (probably leave both SS to age 70), and Roth converting to the top of the 12% bracket as fast as possible so the survivor doesn't get dinged by heavy taxation.
A realtor would handle the sale of the house if one dies. One thing we don't have a handle on-----What is the most efficient way to sell belongings that would no longer be needed in the future survivor's life? Are there estate sellers that guarantee to work in the best interest of the client. I can see how this process could be severely abused to the benefit of the Estate selling company.
We've successfully planned and executed retirement. Now we want to create an efficient death plan if one of us bites the bullet early.
