[WSBARP] Perfecting custodial real estate interest at 18

[Claudia A Gowan]

Colleagues:

When an interest in real estate is transferred via WUTMA and the minor turns 18, is it necessary to take any step to enter a record of attainment of majority at the Recorder's office?

Looking at the statutes, I am not seeing anything required. Common sense tells me that if the property were sold later, all that would be necessary is to show escrow proof of age.

But, maybe I am all wet...

Thanks, Claudia
