[WSBAPT] TDD

[John McCrady]

The rule as I understand it is that the deed must be “delivered” to the grantee before the death of the grantor.  I believe the Washington Real Property Deskbook has an excellent discussion of “Delivery.”

Deed notarized a few years ago but client did not record the Deed before he died. Beneficiary recorded the Deed the4 next business day after he died. Is this effective to convey ?
Thanks
Mike
