[WSBAPT] [SPAM] Clearing title where there is a deed which conveyed no interest.

[Beth McDaniel]

Dirt types,

 

1.        John owns separate real property and marries.  No CPA.

2.       Wife dies.  

3.       For whatever reason, Wife’s estate is probated, John is
appointed, and an interest in John’s separate property is conveyed from
wife to wife’s children.

4.       John comes to see me and is upset that lawyer advised him to do
that.  I send QCDs to wife’s children asking them to please convey the
interest they did not have back to John.  Not a single child responds.

5.       John dies.

6.       John Jr. probate’s John’s estate.  A title report is obtained
which states in part ‘The public records do not recognize wife as having
any interest in the real estate.  She was married to John, but no document
was ever recorded to create a community interest nor was a community
record found of public records . . . we reserve further opinion pending
submission of material facts.’

7.       Sale of property is pending.  Title Officer advises to execute a
PR deed and he’ll send QCDs to wife’s children asking them to convey their
interests back to John’s estate.

 

What are the other options to clear the title so that this property can
close?  Thanks!!
