Charitable remainder unitrust for income

A charitable remainder unitrust pays you income that reflects trust investments. There is the potential that your income could increase over time with growth in the trust.

How to select the right unitrust payout for you

There are several unitrust payout options to meet your needs:

• The standard unitrust pays out a percentage of the trust assets each year
• Another payout option, used commonly for real estate, permits the trust to sell the property tax free and then begins paying you income after the property has been sold
