[WSBAPT] Deed/Title Question

[Maura McCoy]

This is a deed/title question - we have a client who is the sole beneficiary of her parents' trust. The parents' underlying RLT was created in 2007 and fully funded. 

Dad died in 2015, at which time the exemption trust was created. Real property was funded to the exemption trust, but the date of the exemption trust on the deed is from the ORIGINAL RLT date (2007, rather than 2015). All other accounts held in the exemption trust also have the original trust date. The certificate of trust from the exemption trust also has the original trust date. Mom is now deceased and we are administering the trust and noticed the error on the deed. 

Thoughts? Does this need to be corrected on the deed, or is the original trust date sufficient for title purposes?
