[WSBARP] County Assessor Fails to Pick Up Recording

[Jeff Davis]

Listmates,

 

Last year we recorded a death certificate to transfer title to the surviving
joint tenants.  The coversheet contained the Decedent as Grantor, the
surviving Joint Tenants as Grantees, properly referenced the deed creating
the joint tenancy with right of survivorship and the tax parcel ID.  County
assessor has not picked up the recording with the decedent's name still on
title.  Have any of you had this happen in the past.  Do I just write the
assessor and provide them a copy of the recorded death certificate?
