<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">I didn't get many responses, but so far no one has come up with any case law or theory that avoids the basic rule under Ch. 11.10 RCW, where estate expenses and debts simply abate estate property ratably in accordance
with their classification as gifts. So, I think the authority I thought was out there, ain't.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I cannot find the authority that I swear is out there--<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Estate expenses (costs of administration, post-death expenses) are normally paid from estate assets pursuant to the abatement statutes, RCW 11.10.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But, if the Estate includes an item property that causes specific expenses – for example, a house that requires a new roof to prevent new substantial damage from leaks during the rainy season, or even just payment of delinquent real property
taxes – it is permissible to charge those specific expenses against that specific property.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In such a case, if the property is given to a particular heir (by specific bequest, or other distribution in kind), that heir's share of the estate is therefore charged specially with those expenses.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyone have authority, statutory or case law? Or am I searching for something that isn't there?<u></u><u></u></p>
