Frequently asked questions about estate planning

Anyone who wants to ensure their estate is managed efficiently, objectively, and without burdening loved ones can benefit from appointing a professional liquidator. This option is especially helpful if:

  • Your estate is complex — involving multiple properties, investments, or business interests.

  • Family dynamics could make decision-making difficult or emotional.

  • You don’t have someone close who is willing or able to take on the role.

  • You want to ensure neutral, expert administration and peace of mind for your beneficiaries.

A professional liquidator brings the expertise, transparency, and efficiency needed to settle estates properly, while relieving family members of the stress and legal responsibility that often come with the role.

Liquidator fees are typically calculated as a percentage of the estate’s total value. In Canada, a friend or family member acting as executor is usually entitled to claim up to 5% of the estate’s value as compensation for their time and responsibilities. The same rate often applies when a lawyer takes on the role of liquidator.

By comparison, bank trust companies generally charge around 4% of the estate’s value for their executor services.

With ClearEstate’s Professional Executor Service*, the fee is a transparent 1% of the estate’s value — offering the same expertise, objectivity, and peace of mind as traditional executors, but at a fraction of the cost.

*The professional plan requires your appointment of Natcan Trust Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the National Bank of Canada, as your executor.
