Residential Listing Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 3, 2024

Can a seller terminate a Residential Listing Agreement before the agreed-upon period ends?

I recently entered into a Residential Listing Agreement with a real estate agent to sell my property, but I am now considering terminating the agreement before the agreed-upon period ends. The agent has not been able to generate any offers or interest in the property, and I am concerned about the lack of progress. I want to know if I have the right to terminate the agreement early and if there are any potential consequences or obligations I should be aware of.

Dolan W.

Answered Nov 1, 2024

Hello! I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. Legally speaking, most real estate agent agreements generally state you must pay their commissions even if you terminate the relationship, typically up to 6 months after the termination of the relationship. In theory, you have a breach of contract action if this person has not done any actual work or generated any offers or any interest in the property. This would likely make the agreement "unconscionable" in this case. So what does this mean? It means your best option is to negotiate the termination How do you do that? One little-known, but very effective tool that lawyers use to settle matters outside of court is called principled negotiation.  All this means is that you are looking to get something done on the basis of principles, even if you can’t find a law to support you.  It takes the anxiety out of dealing with the other side because you’re focused on the facts, not each other.  With that said, here are some simple steps you can follow: Figure out what the other side’s interests are (saving money, saving time, etc.?); Think about what your interests are (saving money, saving time, etc.?); Come up with 2 to 3 reasonable and objective ways to solve the problem; Present it to the other side; If the other side rejects, ask them, “Is there a reason why you do not feel it is necessary to negotiate?” Consider what your best alternative to a negotiated agreement is.  This will give you confidence that no matter what, you'll have an option. Of course, these are just building blocks to get the other party to help solve the dispute.  Believe me when I say that good lawyers use this technique all the time to keep things out of court.  You’ll find that it is very effective even with the most stubborn of individuals. Best of luck! Dolan

Quitclaim Deed

California

Asked on Oct 3, 2023

Do quitclaim deeds expire?

I recently inherited a piece of property from my late uncle. I have recently received a quitclaim deed for the property, but I'm not sure if it is still valid. I am interested in selling the property, but I need to know if the quitclaim deed is still valid and will not expire.

Sarah S.

Answered Nov 3, 2023

A quitclaim deed typically maintains its validity over time, but there are key factors to keep in mind: Proper Execution: To ensure the quitclaim deed remains valid, it must have been correctly executed when your late uncle transferred the property to you. This usually entails the presence of a notary public or witnesses and adherence to your state's legal requirements for deed execution. Recording: For safeguarding your interests and confirming the deed's legitimacy, it should be officially recorded with the relevant government office, often the county recorder's office. Recording serves to establish a public record of the property transfer.

Property Lease

California

Asked on Mar 2, 2026

I have rent to own lease agreement the owner passed away and his conservator sold the property what can I do

I explained in the first box

Matthew K.

Answered Mar 3, 2026

After the sale, did you continue living there and paying the lease amount? It's difficult to expand on my answer without reading the agreement (it cannot be oral). Assuming the agreement is what you say, you might consider recording a Lis Pendens on the property. That will get everyone's attention, I can assure you. Probably also consider a quiet title action. None of that advice is necessarily relevant; it depends on what the agreement says.

Escrow Services Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 13, 2024

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.

Answered Oct 11, 2024

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. One of the main legal obligations when using escrow is adherence to the terms outlined in the escrow agreement.

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
