Real estate
Investment accounts
Business interests
Family heirlooms
Cash or charitable contributions

As of 2025, the federal lifetime gift and estate tax exemption is subject to change due to expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Proper planning now can lock in today’s favorable rates and exemptions before potential reductions.
