[WSBAPT] Deed from PR directly to Trust

[Mike Zeno]

Inheritances are excise-tax exempt, per WAC 458-61A-202, and transfer into a revocable trust ought to be exempt under WAC 458-61A-211(2)(g).  So hopefully no excise tax.

Recorder insists on a two step process - PR W deed deceased H 1/2 interest to W and then W 100% interest to Wife's Trust.  Any other options than paying a double fee? Thanks
Mike
