<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for the answers to my earlier question- I have several who have answered that the Lack of Probate Affidavit will work for the transfer of the property in my question. There is no community property agreement in my case. Is there
an RCW that permits this lack of probate affidavit for real property transfer by married couples upon the death of the first or has it just been done by practice. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Am I creating title problems down the line for daughter? I agree, best to sell it in probate, but if she wants to keep it as a rental for a while and then tries to sell it later, have we saved money now only to have to spend it later to
clean up the shortcuts?<o:p></o:p></p>
