(2) A homestead may be selected from property contributed by the settlor to a revocable trust when the property would otherwise qualify under this chapter if it were not for the transfer of property to the revocable trust. For the purpose of this chapter, the claimant is the husband, wife, or unmarried person that is the settlor of the revocable trust. All provisions of this chapter apply to the settlor claimant in the same manner as an individual claimant, regardless of trust status.
(3) For the purposes of this section, “revocable” and “settlor” have the same meaning as provided in 72-38-103.
