| THE "DOWN-LOW" ON THE UPLOAD
 Realtors: Your head hurts when you think how it's been beaten into you how important it is to attach the legal description when writing up a Purchase and Sale Agreement. But, did you know that you can upload the legal description of your new listing into RMLSweb so that other Realtors can print it up to attach to their offers? According to RMLS, only 30% of listings contain such an attachment. Let Cascade Title help you turn that listing into $$ by obtaining from us an "Exhibit A" - the legal description - and uploading it!
Optional: order a Listing Order title report at the same time, so you can avoid surprises when an offer is received! Just call Eric Zilm at Cascade: 360.695.1301! If you need assistance in uploading to RMLSweb, call the RMLS Help Desk at 503-872-8002 (toll free 1-877-256-2169) or e-mail at [email protected]. The RMLS Training Department is accessible at 503.872.8052 or [email protected].
Practice Tip: Using the same procedure, you can upload the Seller Disclosure form!

DEALING WITH A DECEASED SELLER? BORROWER REFINANCING AFTER DEATH OF AN OWNER?
PROBATE MAY NOT BE NECESSARY!
 Many longtime real estate practitioners are unaware that probate is not always necessary when an owner of real property passes. Using a "Lack of Probate Affidavit," Cascade Title may be able to close a sale or refinance transaction without requiring probate. Scott Hogan, Manager at Cascade, is an attorney licensed to practice in Washington or Oregon. If you have questions about how this process works, give Scott a call!
