    If there is nothing left to distribute, it sounds like a final return to me.

      Is it an estate (for a deceased person)?

      Or a trust (Successor Trustee)?

      Who/what legally owns the house?

      What happens to the house when Successor Trustee dies?

      The more I know the more I don’t know.

          I misread that.  If the trust owns the house until the last man standing, the trust is still alive.  Although that kind of sucks for the next round of beneficiaries if the house appreciates in value.
