[WSBARP] Deed v Lack of Probate Affidavit

[Bryce Dille]

That the affidavit does not transfer a title, but establishes that there is a descedent and that there are heirs under the laws of dissent and distribution, and who they are in that title automatically vests in those heirs by virtue of RCW 11.0 4.250 and therefore no deed is required.

I’ve gotten some conflicting and/or inconclusive input in response to this question.
Is a Lack of Probate Affidavit (LPA) effective to convey fee simple title?  If your answer is “yes,” please explain how it meets the requirements for a Deed under RCW 64.04.010.
Thanks.
