Public Trust Estate Administration

HI all, just wanting to encourage anyone with a public trust will to contact them and get an estimate of what your estate is likely to cost to administer.
I am a little outraged at an estimate of my mothers estate taking 8-12 months to administer with a cost at just under $11,000- .
Mum had cash in the bank and no other material assets having been in hospital level care for around 3 years.
The estate is split equally between 3 children with a token gift to 1 other estranged child which I believe was at their advice when the will was made.
I don't know what it would cost normally but it seems outrageous that cash only could incur that sort of cost.
I'd encourage people to enquire if that seems high, you do have a choice.
I know Mum would be very annoyed at this cost herself had she known.
Thanks, ian

With the 75+ population projected to double in 20 years’ time, it’s more important than ever to choose a retirement village that is equipped to support you when you’re fully independent as well as if you need care.

That’s why Ryman villages plan ahead by offering independent living in apartments and townhouses, assisted living in serviced apartments, resthome care and, in most villages, hospital and specialist dementia care.

We offer a higher ratio of care in our villages so that if your needs change, you have priority access to our care centres.

On our last buying trip to the South Island we picked up a new variety of honey - Blackcurrant Honey.
This is from hives that pollinate blackcurrant bushes and collect their nectar, it has a definite aftertaste of blackcurrants.

Blackcurrants contain high levels of anthocyanins and anti-oxidants. These support the immune system and help maintain health and well-being. This honey has a light amber colour, it has a refreshing flavour with a hint of spice.

Come in and try it - we do honey tasting.
