Colleagues,

I need to clear a decedent’s name off title to real property in favor of his surviving spouse.  There is a community property agreement, which was recorded in 1975.  I was under the impression that I only needed to record the certified copy of the death certificate and a REETA to transfer the property into the wife’s name….  But when I go to record the DC via Simplifile, there’s no place for uploading a REETA.  It feels incomplete to record the DC and reference the abbreviated legal and TPN on the cover sheet without a separate document explaining the transfer and the WAC citation for the exemption.  HELP!  What am I doing wrong?

Best regards,
