Sounds like a place I wouldn't want to buy as the selling process for you in the future whenever you decide to sell could be quite frustrating and inflexible while scaring away potential buyers because of the extra hassle.I have bought a probate estate sell before  - unfortunately it can take a while depending on how fast it clears the courts and that is out of the control of the lawyers.

Im not going to read the whole declaration of independance, all I need to know is Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.Maybe you too can boil down your message a little?

I’ve thought about the probate court or contacting the mortgage company.

One good place to start is by doing court house research at the Register of Deeds.

When they push your sellers, (if this doesn't pan out) then faxes are recorded in the file, and can be brought to court.The seller's might have some money to push them back in court by then.

No actually the debtor can have the attorney do a motion with the court to sell home.

@Dacia Bell,I always defined my communication options with tenants and borrowers by first taking into consideration what is acceptable and admissible in a court of law in the jurisdiction where the property is located.Next consideration, many times state and local laws have defined rules for legally communicating with tenants and borrowers.I always communicate within what is acceptable by law so that should a problem later arise - and it could be years from now - every communication is within the law.I also require all communication be in written form.

Then I would sue her in a small claim court for the damages.But to be honest to you I do not think you will ever be able to collect from this tenant bc it look like she is broke...

It is my understanding that this is not part of Washington State law to actually have mailed the deposit within 14 days, but rather an estimate of accounting for the refund - seems like if you were to go court you've just burdened yourself by telling the tenant this is what you would do when in reality it wasn't required to be done that way.

One example is a lender filing a court action to foreclose, so the property is in some part of the foreclosure process.
