[WSBARP] Question re Trustee Signatures on Conveyance Documents

[Dwight Bickel]

Mark's preferred description with the trust name is better, even if not required. The chain of title should clearly show identity of the same Trust as Grantee then Grantor. Though true that the Trustee is the party in title, there are often successor, alternative, or survivors as new Trustees, without a recording to document the change, so the name of the Trust should be stated in each conveyance. A later title examination should not have the burden to determine the Trust and powers of the later Trustee.
