[WSBAPT] REET and PR Deeds

[Mike Winslow]

If I have a confirming email, I will sign for the grantees in an estate. The
risk of excise tax being assessed following an audit on this transfer is
about nil. I want the confirm so the heir cannot say they received the
property against their instructions.
Skagit has not hassled us about this so far.

Listmates, on the Real Estate Excise Tax Affidavit, the form requires the
signature of the "grantor or grantor's agent" (which is easy because it's
the personal representative) but who do you get to sign for the "grantee or
grantee's agent"?.  I don't want to have to slow the recording of the PR
Deeds (I have about 6) by hunting down the various beneficiaries to obtain
their signatures.  Thanks for your input.  -Paul Neumiller
