[WSBARP] deed for successor trustee

[Kary Krismer]

I'm not sure a deed is required, because it's not the trustee in title, 
it's the trust.  Can you record a notice of resignation of trustee and 
appointment of successor trustee?

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong because I recently went through 
this on some family trust property.  My mother was the trustee under a 
will from 1994, and with her passing my brother and I are now successor 
trustees.  Kitsap County is refusing to change the billing name from my 
mother as trustee, but is willing to send duplicate tax statements.  I 
figure that's good enough given the fact that when we list the title 
company is recognizing my brother and I as trustees.  And the owner 
remains the same--Trust under will of . . ..
