# Buying through a Trust

> Complete a digital EOI for a trust purchaser: capture the trustee's registration and the trust, add the people behind it, and upload each person's ID.

A trust buys as a single purchaser. You capture the trustee's registration, the trust's name and deed, and the people behind the trust, then upload each person's ID. Start the EOI [as usual](/help-guide/06-agent-portal/13-digital-eoi) and choose **Trust** on the purchase structure page.

## Before you start

* The trustee's ACN or ABN and registered name
* The trust's name, and the trust deed if available (optional)
* Each person's name, email, mobile and date of birth
* A clear photo of each person's ID

## The trustee and the trust

Enter the trustee's ACN or ABN and legal entity name, then the trust's own name. **Check** confirms the registration with the ABR and fills the trustee name for you. Attach the trust deed if the buyer has it.

## Who is behind the trust?

Add the beneficiaries, the trustee or trustees, the appointor and the authorised signatory, one person per screen. Fill in the person and click **Continue**: they are saved and the list of everyone added so far appears, where **Add another person** starts the next one. **Continue** from the list moves the EOI on.

## Deal details and IDs

Details, finance, solicitor and broker work exactly as for [individual buyers](/help-guide/06-agent-portal/13-digital-eoi/01-individual-buyers). Two differences:

* **Guarantors**: if the trust is borrowing, lenders usually require a guarantor. Add them on the Finance step; guarantors are recorded for financing only and are never ID-verified.
* **IDs**: the trust itself is never ID-verified: its people are. Upload the sighted ID for each person you added, one at a time, ticking the consent confirmation that they were given the privacy notice and agreed, then review and submit as usual. Every person's ID must be on file before you can submit.
