<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to get a copy of the recorded community property agreement to file with a lack of probate affidavit for a client whose dad is the surviving spouse and not on title to their property with his wife (client's stepmom), under RCW
82.45.197(g). <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there any way to use an unrecorded community property agreement to transfer title for the property to the dad or would they have to open a probate? Or would RCW 82.45.197(f) suffice since we don't have the recorded CPA in (a)?<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">No debts, no probate ever opened for decedent wife, house is only remaining asset to be transferred. Dad is getting everything under the will.<o:p></o:p></p>
