<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style='FONT-FAMILY: "Times New Roman",serif'>I have a
title person in Jefferson county telling me it’s common practice in title
companies when property is acquired as “husband and wife” (the type of ownership
– TIC or JTWROS is not indicated in the deed) to pass the ownership to the
surviving spouse without any kind of conveyance since Washington is a community
property state, all they require is proof of death of the spouse. Title
has always done this, we’ve used death certificates, lack of probate affidavit’s
or actual probates as proof of death of the spouse and then just vest the
ownership in the surviving spouse.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style='FONT-FAMILY: "Times New Roman",serif'><o:p></o:p></SPAN> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style='FONT-FAMILY: "Times New Roman",serif'>My
understanding is that a transfer to H&W (or any conveyance to more than one
person) without indicating the type of ownership creates a tenancy in common,
RCW 64.28.020. In our case the decedent left his entire estate in
trust for his surviving spouse, which I would conclude would include his TIC
share in real property. Title transferred it all to the surviving
spouse. It would seem we have to claw it back.
