Hi All,
 
 
I have a client who some how had previously quit claimed their primary residence to a RLT, but they told me they have never signed an RLT document. Has anyone encountered this?
 
My thoughts as next steps:
 
TEDRA to undo? 
 
Or using RCW 11.98.014, consider their prior trust to be an oral trust, and simply quit claim to their new trust?
 
 
Thanks all,
