Default Candians home

We have a revocable trust. We are US citizens living in Florida. Our attorney did not include our home in our trust because we have tenent in entirety which according to our attorney affords us rights and credits via the Homestead Act. Following the death of the first spouse the attorney then suggests placing the home in trust and deeding it accordingly.
