Trust Services

Vista Bank offers a wide array of Trust Services. In short, the purpose of a trust is to conduct business on behalf of another person. Trusts are often created for minor children, wasteful heirs, estate tax considerations, and to protect assets from creditors. We can also be the executor of your will.

Our specialty is the management of farmland. We act as landlord, selecting suitable tenants, supervising the maintenance of the land, complying with government regulations, collecting revenue and paying expenses. We charge a very modest fee, but will only accept farmland in or near our bank branch locations.

We also often handle business affairs through a Power-of-Attorney arrangement, similar to a revocable trust but simpler.
