Inheritance question

Hi,

Question...I bought my 4-plex in California 3 years ago and at the time I was (and still am) married. My wife is Japanese (non-US citizen), we have a kid with dual citizenship and we live and work in Japan. When we were buying our property, my wife signed off on sole and separate property to me because at the time we were on a strict timeline and we didn't have the flexibility of being able to have all the necessary checks the lending company wanted to conduct on her. I'm curious if in the event of anything happening to me, would she get the property even though she's not a US citizen and signed over the sole and separate property rights to me? I definitely would want her to get the property.

Thanks in advance!
