<DIV><FONT size=4>What I have done in the past has been to negotiate a % of the
sale price to pay for administrative costs etc. in the neighborhood of 15%
to 20% of the sale price that is paid to DSHS. If through the negotiation
you end up still as a nonintervention estate, then you can pay and close
estate. If you can’t get it down far enough, then you turn it into an
intervention estate and the judge says who gets what. This assumes no lien
has been recorded.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>Does anyone have experience with a high DSHS claim when a primary
residence remains? I have my first case where the probate, after receiving
the claim from DSHS, will become insolvent and I am struggling with seeing the
picture of steps. House is worth $380 or so, with a mortgage of $100, but
a DSHS claim of over $300...
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I see the priority list of an estate, no problem, but I am amiss at the
next step. ie: DSHS has made a claim so they need to seek a court order to
capture the remaining funds of the house proceeds and are treated within the
priority of the estate claims? Or, do they file a claim and they are paid
like a secured claim (mortgage) vs unsecured?<BR>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If someone has dealt with DSHS before and has 10 min to spare (ya, right) I
would greatly appreciate guidance.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you!<BR clear=all>
