What assets most often trigger the need for a CRT?
Those that have appreciated quite a bit since you acquired them. They typically include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and real estate.
Real estate is particularly popular because a CRT is the only way to sell real estate and get out of the burden of having to continue to manage it without paying taxes on capital gains.
The best real properties for a CRT are those with little or no debt on them.
