Quitclaim Deed

Georgia

Asked on Sep 30, 2023

How enforceable is a quitclaim deed?

I recently inherited a piece of property from a family member and have been told that a quitclaim deed is the only way to transfer the title to my name. I am concerned about the enforceability of this document and would like to understand the potential risks and benefits associated with using a quitclaim deed. I am also curious about the legal requirements for making a quitclaim deed valid.

Bobby H.

Answered Oct 20, 2023

In theory, any writing in which an owner intends to transfer propery that is adquatedly described and delivered to the transferee is enforcable against the GRANTOR. Thus, a quitclaim deed is generally a valid deed, provided that it has been executed with the requiste formalities for purposes of recording in the public records, and adequetly describes the property. Generally, the term "quitclaim" simply signifies the the grantor does not promise to defend the grantee against any third party title claims. To be properly executed, the deed generally must be executed by the grantor in the presence of the notary, notarized, and signed by the notary and one additional witness. Without meeting these requirements, the deed may not be accepted for recordation in the property records, which also makes the deed "enforceable" against third parties, because it service as notice to those who do not have a previously recorded interest in the property of the grantee's title. In sum, a deed, including a quitclaim deed is generally enforceable against the grantor, but must be executed with the above formalities AND recorded to be "enforceable" against, or serve a notice to third parties of the new owner's interest in the property.

Rental Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 8, 2023

Does a rental agreement need witnesses?

I recently signed a rental agreement for an apartment that I am moving into next month. I was not asked to have any witnesses present when I signed the agreement, so I am wondering if a rental agreement needs witnesses in order for it to be legally binding. I would like to make sure that the agreement is valid before I move in.

Answered Oct 27, 2023

Witnesses are not generally required for rental agreements.

Triple Net Lease

Texas

Asked on Mar 25, 2025

What are the rights and responsibilities of a tenant in a triple net lease?

As a small business owner, I am considering entering into a triple net lease agreement for a commercial property. I have heard that in a triple net lease, the tenant is responsible for paying not only the rent but also additional expenses such as property taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs. Before signing any agreement, I would like to understand the specific rights and responsibilities I would have as a tenant in a triple net lease, and how these differ from a standard lease agreement.

Samantha O.

Answered Apr 29, 2025

Hello there! Yes, typically a triple-net ("NNN") lease pushes all of the property (or portion thereof) expenses onto the tenant - essentially as if the tenant was the owner. This differs from a gross lease, where a tenant pays rent only (therefore, the tenant can more accurately predict annual costs). In a NNN lease, it is important for a tenant to (at minimum) be able to estimate how much the NNN expenses will be prior to executing the lease. If a NNN lease is the only option, there are many ways the lease can be revised to mitigate risk for the tenant. I’d be happy to review the lease and suggest such revisions. Thank you!

Commercial Lease

Ohio

Asked on Apr 20, 2023

How is the lease renewed at the end of the lease term?

I am a small business owner who recently signed a three-year commercial lease for my business. I am looking to understand the process of renewing the lease at the end of the three-year term. I am interested in learning more about the process, the timeline, and what I need to do to ensure that I can continue to operate my business at this location.

Paul S.

Answered Apr 21, 2023

If your lease has a renewal option, then you renew by following that process, which involves giving notice during the specified time frame. If you did not include a renewal option in your lease, then you'll need to contact the landlord 6-12 months before the end of the term, and inform the landlord that you want to renew the lease. Then you'll have to negotiate the terms with the landlord.
