[WSBARP] Continuing saga of REETA's

[Craig Sjostrom]

The latest one was recorded a month ago (I've always recorded them, even
though it may not be strictly necessary). My client now is selling the
property and the sale can't close until the Assessor changes the name on the
tax rolls from the old (dead) owners to my client, and they won't do so
without the REETA.

 

Grrrr

It is my vague recollection that the court's filing are all that's needed.
I think the title boys have chimed in on this issue in the past.  If the
property is in the county where you obtained the QT judgment, it is
unnecessary to also record the judgment.  The title companies also do a
search of the court records in a standard title search.  At what point is
Skagit County approaching you and demanding a REETA?

Hello all

 

I'm at my wit's end dealing with Skagit County concerning excise affidavits
in quiet title cases. I've had several recent decrees quieting title
(usually based on adverse possession) entered and recorded, and the County
is insisting on REETA's being executed, with no explanation as to the basis
or justification thereof. We've been filing them under protest.

 

I'm thinking of naming the County as a defendant in my next QT case, seeking
a finding that no REETA is necessary and an order compelling recording of
the decree without one. I wonder what the collective thinks about that?
