Thank you – and to everyone for all the good ideas!

This is true, but don’t forget the new rules requiring the recording of both a lack of probate affidavit and of a death certificate.
The recorded LOP affidavit can be found at the Department of Revenue web site, but for convenience I have attached a copy

Ask your local title company about Lack of Probate Affidavit.

Title company may be willing to insure title with this.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Getting deceased husband off the deed

Have a question to what is likely a common problem, I just haven't dealt with it yet.

Husband and wife own property. Husband dies with no will and no other assets.

Years later wife is trying to transfer property to son and county won't allow it because husband is still on the deed.

I'm getting a copy of the deed to make sure the property wasn't held in an unusual way, but assuming the property was held jointly as it normally is in the state, any ideas on how to get husband off the title?

Thank you for your help.

Cheers,
