Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers
Real Estate
Deed of Trust
Illinois
Can a Deed of Trust be modified without the consent of all parties involved?
I recently purchased a property with the help of a mortgage loan, and a Deed of Trust was executed to secure the loan. However, I have come across some financial difficulties and am considering refinancing the mortgage to lower my monthly payments. I have been informed that the terms of the Deed of Trust may need to be modified in order for the refinancing to take place, but I am unsure whether all parties involved, including the lender and the trustee, need to provide their consent for such modifications to be made. Can a Deed of Trust be modified without the consent of all parties involved, or do I need to obtain their approval before proceeding with refinancing?
David U.
You must have their consent. In the general/miscellaneous provisions toward the bottom of the DOT, you should see a standard provision, stating that no amendment to the deed of trust will be valid unless evidenced by a fully executed written agreement.

Escrow Services Agreement
California
What are the legal obligations and potential risks involved in using escrow services for a real estate transaction?
I am currently in the process of purchasing a property and my real estate agent has recommended using an escrow service to ensure a secure and smooth transaction. However, I have heard conflicting information about the legal obligations and potential risks associated with using escrow services. I want to make sure I fully understand the legal implications and any potential risks involved before proceeding with this option.
Dolan W.
Hello! Welcome to contractscounsel.com. So in your case, using an escrow service in a real estate transaction is super common as it helps facilitate a secure and smooth transfer of property ownership. In an escrow arrangement, a neutral third party holds the funds, documents, and other assets until all terms and conditions of the sale are met, ensuring that neither the buyer nor the seller is at risk of losing money or property if the other party fails to fulfill their obligations. They are basically a middleman. One of the main legal obligations when using escrow is adherence to the terms outlined in the escrow agreement. Both parties must comply with the instructions provided in the contract, including deadlines for deposits, inspections, and disclosures. The escrow company is legally bound to act according to the instructions from the buyer and seller and can only release funds or documents when all conditions are met. If a dispute arises, the escrow company may require mutual agreement or a court order before taking any action, which could delay the process.

If a dispute arises, the escrow company may require mutual agreement or a court order before taking any action, which could delay the process. Potential risks of using escrow services include issues related to the service provider's reliability and the risk of fraud. It's important to choose a reputable and licensed escrow company to minimize risks. In some cases, fraudulent companies may present themselves as escrow services, taking advantage of unsuspecting buyers or sellers. I would verify with others in the field or even friends and family, in addition to doing your own research online to sniff out any scams. Best of luck! Dolan
Real Estate
Mortgage Agreement
Georgia
Which court document shows the mortgagee?
Just asking
Howard B.
To be clear, the mortgagor is the person taking the loan and giving the creditor a security interest in real property. The mortgagee is the creditor, typically a bank. Which court document depends on what type of proceeding you are involved in. If you are asking about a foreclosure action, the mortgage instrument is typically filed with the petition/complaint initiating the action. However, I'm an Oklahoma attorney, not a Georgia attorney, so I don't know if the same requirement applies to filings in your state. However, that's what is typical. The problem is that the loan is often sold, so the promissory note and the mortgage are assigned to other companies. The manner in which that happens varies by state. There might be attachments showing the documents were assigned to other financial institutions who presumably bought the note and mortgage. Those are usually pages attached to the back of the mortgage agreement. Also, there is a company called the Mortgage Electronic Registration, Inc. ("MERS") that tracks ownership of loans without making a separate assignment each time a loan is transferred from one financial institution to another. In a MERS case, there is typically a statement from MERS, often in a long legalese document called an affidavit. Somewhere in that affidavit, it likely says who the present owner is. Alternatively, the affidavit simply verifies that some other document is a true copy of their business records, and THAT document will have the mortgagee information. For more detailed information, you will need to take whatever documents you have and whatever case information you have (especially the case number) to an attorney in the state where the property is located, preferably in the county where the property is located. Good luck!
Real Estate
Lease Agreement
Texas
Lease renewal clause definition?
I want to know exactly what my renewal term paragraph in my lease means? Just want some clarification. Landlord says he is upping the rent considerable at end of my term for another 2 years, but my lease agreement says something different I believe and would like someone with lease expertise to see what they think?
Forest H.
Good morning, feel free to contact me through the contracts counsel portal with the language in question and I would be happy to give you my opinion.
Real Estate
Agreement To Rent Or Lease
Georgia
what is the best method when it comes to contracts if you plan to do property listing for travelers is there a vast difference between a regular rental contract?
Currently looking into overseeing my parent's rental property and want to make sure we're doing the right process in terms of contracts when it comes to renting out a property whether it is a long-term or short-term.
Darryl S.
Not a VAST difference, but not the same either. You should have a lawyer create an AirBNB or short term rental type agreement and you should not use a standard lease agreement. As examples, the short term agreement might cover check in and out policies, prohibit big parties, etc. and more.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
