[WSBAPT] Chicken and Egg Question - Probate - Creditor's Claim

Fri Sep 20 17:09:37 PDT 2019

Friday after 5 pm thought - have the PR set up an LLC with PR as sole member, then PR transfers the property into the LLC, and then have LLC sole member approach lenders re: loan?

Well, client has now approached two lenders and both refuse to lend to a PR of an estate.  The banks are saying he must transfer from the estate to himself personally first before they will consider a loan secured by the property.  If the creditor is not willing to allow a transfer to the PR individually, then we will get a court order.  Thanks for everyone's ideas.  They have been helpful.

Paul,
Do you have a lender? I think Eric's answer is technically correct, but I suspect that many banks would hesitate to make a loan (with the PR as borrower) in this situation. 
Just a thought,
John

Does PR have non-intervention powers? RCW 11.68.090(1) allows PR to encumber/mortgage real property belonging to the estate.

Listmates:  PR is surviving spouse.  PR needs to take out a loan secured by the family residence to pay off a creditor's claim.  Can a PR, as PR of an estate, borrow against an estate asset such as the residence or does PR have to transfer the residence into PR's name first, then borrow against the residence in order to pay off the creditor?
