I think a short statement explaining the net rents returned, together with a check and the deed makes sense. The recipient will also need to sign off on the excise tax affidavit accompanying the deed, and should be notified that the property is transferring with sufficient time to change their insurance to reflect their ownership. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Heather <o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Vladimir Script";color:#1F497D'>Heather S. de Vrieze</span><b><span style='font-size:16.0pt;color:#1F497D'><br></span></b><i><span style='font-family:"Garamond","serif";color:#1F497D'>Attorney-at-Law<o:p></o:p></span></i></p><p class=MsoNormal><i><span style='font-family:"Garamond","serif";color:#1F497D'><img width=189 height=105 id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image005.jpg@01D2FF2C.3D2B7DB0" alt="cid:image001.jpg@01D013C2.30F35160"></span></i><i><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></i></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'>3909 California Avenue SW<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'>Seattle, WA 98116-3705 <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'>(206)938-5500 <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><a href="mailto:heatherd@westseattlelaw.com"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'>heatherd@westseattlelaw.com</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><a href="http://www.westseattlelaw.com/"><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'>www.westseattlelaw.com</span></a></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#002E8A'>Click here to connect with de Vrieze | Carney on Facebook: </span><span style='color:#1F497D'> </span></b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/DeVriezeCarney"><b><span style='color:blue;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=72 height=21 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image006.png@01D2FF2C.3D2B7DB0" alt="FB Logo"></span></b></a><span style='font-family:Nyala;color:#44524E'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:8.0pt;color:#A6A6A6'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:8.0pt;color:#A6A6A6'>CONFIDENTIAL & PRIVILEGED.

Testate Decedent with no family leaves duplexes to various long-term tenants who are paying rent. There is a professional property manager. Ok so far but what happens to paid rents after the date of death but before the date of distribution? The real property transfers to the heirs and beneficiaries upon date of death (RCW 11.04.250) . The rents have been deposited into a bank account that are still available for reimbursement so we can deliver the PR deeds to the tenants along with a refund check (paid rent minus utilities paid). Does this sound about right?
