[WSBAPT] Affidavit of Lack of Probate - surviving Child

[John McCrady]

As I understand the facts, I would say that title passes to the sole heir by the laws of intestacy.  The Lack of Probate Affidavit merely puts evidence of such passage of title in the public record.

Shouldn't that be a question for the title company?

Single parent dies leaving one child. No Will.   House was in the name of parent and child, as tenants in common.  Will an Affidavit of Lack of Probate work to transfer title to child as child would take under laws of intestacy?
