When a Washington married couple wants to own real property as community
property with the right of survivorship, is it ever appropriate to use "X
and Y, husband and wife, as community property with right of survivorship"
as the vesting language?
Or must one say "X and Y, husband and wife, as joint tenants with right of
survivorship" and always rely on RCW 64.28.040(1) for the presumption that
joint tenancy interests held by a married couple are community property?
Thanks,
