[WSBAPT] Deeding house to revocable living trust

Several California attorneys I've talked to say that if a house is owned by
a husband and wife (and deed does not specify CP), they will deed the
property to H&W as community property with right of survivorship first,
*then* deed into the RLT. This is to ensure a double step-up in basis with
no headaches.

Is that kind of two-deed process necessary here in Washington to get a
double step-up in basis?
