[WSBAPT] LOPA Question

[James Dolan]

H & W second marriage.  Both H & W have children from previous marriages.

H purchases real property in his name prior to marriage.  This property is the residence where both H & W live.

H dies without a Will.  H & W did not have a CPA.  Real property is still in his name only.  All financial assets are POD to W.  The only property remaining in H's name is the residence.

I don't see any way to convey this property without intestate probate.  On paper it is not community property, so a LOPA will not work?

Anyone have a better idea?
