Agree with the Revocable Living Trust. I've had one for twenty years and have one child who will be the single beneficiary without having to pass through any court action or expense to claim the estate; the estate will automatically become hers as beneficiary, without any legal fees.

If you go this route, all holdings must be in the name of the trust.
