[WSBARP] PC who does not want to probate

[Roger Hawkes]

John: are you saying a title company will insure title based upon viewing the will that leaves the property to sister??  Isn't there some formality or passage of time that a reasonable title company will require?

As I understand the facts that should work.  You would need a lack of probate affidavit for the death of Mom to put record title in Dad (provided there was no probate.)  Title passes on death of Dad to Sister and the lack of probate affidavit evidences that.  The deed passes title from Sister to Brother, and should be excise tax exempt provided there is no debt.

I have a PC. Title in Mom and Dad. Mom passed away several years ago and  Dad just passed away. PC wants the property transferred to him without probate. His sister is OK with that. The will leaves the property to sister.
Can we transfer with a Lack of Probate Affidavit and a deed from Sister to Brother?
