*The Following Washington and Klickitat County supplemental forms are included as a courtesy with your order.
Real Estate Excise Tax
Submit this form and real estate excise tax payment, if owed, within 1 month of sale to avoid penalty and interest payments. The form is used to calculate tax amounts; it contains instructions on the second page. For exemptions, see the list of statutes. Some exemptions (e.g. gifts) require the supplemental statement form as well.
Change in Controlling Interest
The transfer of a controlling interest in an entity that has an interest in real property is considered a taxable sale for purposes of the real estate excise tax. This form is often used in corporate transfers of real property. When claiming an exemption, the supplemental statement form may be required as well.
Supplemental Statement
For certain tax exemptions, this form must be filed along with the Real Estate Excise Tax Form or the Controlling Interest Form.
Cover Sheet
Use the cover sheet if the first page of the document does not conform to the recording requirements. Only for emergency non-standard recordings, sign the statement at the bottom of the form.
Notary Certificates
The supplemental forms in this section can be used as loose certificates by notaries in the state.

Transferring a Washington Real Estate Title to a Transfer on Death Beneficiary
The Revised Statutes of Washington set out the rules for transfer on death deeds at Chapter 64.80. Property transferred in this way is not passed in a will; instead, the named beneficiary's share is conveyed as a function of law, but not until after the property owner dies.
To perfect the title, RCW 82.45.197(7) discusses recording a certified copy of the owner's death certificate. Otherwise, the deceased owner's name would remain on the title. This inaccuracy can create confusion during a title search and slow down the transfer process. In addition, outdated information might interfere with property tax billing, possibly leading to fees and/or penalties.
By executing and recording an affidavit of facts as to death to accompany the death certificate the beneficiary can clarify the intended outcome of the transfer. This action keeps property records up-to-date, verifies interests and rights to the title, and ensures smoother transfers in the future.
Each circumstance is unique, so please contact an attorney with questions or for complex situations.
