Subject: [WSBAPT] Estate Planning for Non-Married Couple <br>
<br>
<div>
<div class="WordSection1">
<p class="MsoNormal">I started looking into drafting an estate plan for an unmarried couple, and I have a problem with how to retitle current assets. Let’s say the real property has a loan on it. You can’t quit claim the interest in the property without triggering
due on sale (the exclusion for transfers to family members doesn’t apply because they are not technically family), and even if the lender allowed it, DOR would want to collect 1.78% tax on the transfer. They can’t do a community property agreement since they
aren’t married. Does anyone have experience dealing with this situation? I’d appreciate any thoughts.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Best,</p>
