#5 Way to Avoid Probate after Death: Vehicles, Boats, Motors

Although these may seem like small, somewhat less significant items, when you need to change title on a vehicle, boat or motor, this process is very useful.

The “No Administrator Affidavit” is made available by the Motor Vehicle Division of the Oklahoma Tax Commission through tag agencies across the state.  By completing the require form (found here) and supplying a certified copy of the death certificate, the survivor may obtain title to a vehicle, boat or outboard motor where there is no probate or administration proceeding and no other person would have a prior right to have the property.
