[WSBAPT] REETA question

[Mike Winslow]

She is in possession already, so it appears she would accept the gift. If
there is some concern she would complain about the transfer, then I would
first send a letter that says the deed and REETA need to be processed to
complete the Gift. Send her the REETA with an SASE for return (before the PR
signs). Tell her that if you don't receive the document back and do not
receive any objection, then you will presume permission to complete the
transfer and sign on her behalf. If no answer, then I would sign as
attorney. If she objects I would petition the court for instructions and ask
for permission to sign the REETA on her behalf. I think the probate court
has that authority.

Mike, would you do that as the probate lawyer without her consent?

I would sign it as "agent of the Grantee". The forms reference Grantee or
Agent on the signature line.

I have an estate in which the decedent's left his primary residence to his
daughter.  She has been difficult to work with (she is not the PR) and
uncooperative, though she moved in right away.  We are ready to transfer
title to her, but I don't think she'll agree to sign the REETA as grantee.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
