Refinance Headaches with Title Company

Good day everyone!

Location: Hawaii

We’re currently refinancing our home, supposed to close on Saturday 7/6/24. Currently on the original deed and title are my parents, husband, and myself. My mom passed away last year. We are joint tenants on deed and title.

The situation is that we received an email from the title company demanding a copy of Petition to Note Death of my mom. We have already provided them a certified death certificate. Going through with a Petition to Note Death will at least take 2 weeks and that’s on the Land Court side, it can take another few weeks to record on the side of Bureau of Conveyances as they are two separate bodies here in Hawaii.

My questions are:

Shouldn’t the official death certificate be enough? Shouldn’t the refinance fix the removal of mom on the title? As joint tenants, doesn’t her share automatically move to the remaining tenants which is my dad, me, and husband?

I’m not understanding why the title company is putting through the wringer. Any insight would help, thank you!

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
