[WSBARP] Title / Conveyance Question

[Samuel M. Meyler]

Listmates,

 

H and W are in the process of finalizing a divorce.  H is under contract to
close on a home before the court will sign the decree.  It seems that this
can be accomplished as follows:

 

1.	Seller conveys the property to H as "a married man, for his separate
estate and not as community property."  
2.	W executes a Quit Claim Deed which is recorded contemporaneously
and, "conveys and quitclaims to H all rights, interest and title in the
property, including any and all after-acquired rights, interest and title."

 

Does this prevent W from coming back to claim an interest in the property
down the road?  Is there some other language or a different approach that
should be taken?  

 

What would the correct excise tax exemption be in this scenario?  To
establish separate property pursuant to WAC 458-61A-203(1)?  Or to clear
title pursuant to WAC 458-61A-215?  

 

Thanks for your thoughts.

 

Sam
