[WSBARP] Departed husband

[John McCrady]

>From the facts you present, you should be able to get a title company to insure title free of the husband's interest, using a lack of probate affidavit and copy of the husband's death certificate.
You can give me a call and discuss if you like.

Subject: [WSBARP] Departed husband

I have an estate transferring wife's home to one of her kids as an inheritance.  The husband died first a couple years ago - no will and no community property agreement.
Do we need to do husband's probate to transfer good title?  Will title insure a transfer if all kids agree on disposition of the home without a probate?
