Property Lease
California
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.
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.

Purchase Agreement
California
Can a seller back out of a purchase agreement after accepting an offer?
I recently entered into a purchase agreement to buy a house, and the seller accepted my offer. However, just a few days later, the seller informed me that they have changed their mind and no longer want to sell the property. I have already made arrangements for financing and I am concerned about my rights as a buyer. Can the seller legally back out of the purchase agreement after accepting my offer?
Dolan W.
I'm so sorry about this situation! So legally speaking, the answer is no. Under California law, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill a legal duty the contract created and causes damages for the plaintiff. (California Civil Jury Instructions Number 303.) The measure of damages is the amount that will compensate the aggrieved party for all the detriment caused thereby or likely to result therefrom. (Cal. Civ. Code § 3300.) You may also seek specific performance of the agreement, too. You have some options you can explore: You can send them a demand for performance or some financial compensation. I have a template letter you can use here - https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/document-form-checkout/119 Otherwise, you can file a lawsuit in your local court. If you’ve already sent a bunch of letters, then the truth is this is the only way to compel them to do anything. Best of luck!

Purchase and Sale Agreement
California
When to sign a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a property and need to know when I should sign the purchase and sale agreement. I have been given an offer from the seller and have been told that I need to sign the agreement in order to move forward with the purchase. I am concerned about signing the agreement too soon and have questions about the timing and what risks I may be taking if I sign before I am sure I am ready.
Myrna L.
If you are not ready to buy a property, it is only fair not to waste sellers’ time who are trying to sell their property. If, however, you are ready to buy a property but is concerned about unforeseeable risks, you can mitigate or eliminate your risks by spelling out contingencies in your Purchase and Sales Agreement. If the conditions or contingencies are not met, you do not have to go through with the deal.

Release of Lien
California
Can you explain the process of releasing a lien on a property and what steps I need to take?
I recently purchased a property and discovered that there is a lien on it from a previous owner's unpaid taxes. I have been informed that I need to have the lien released in order to obtain clear title to the property. I am unsure of the specific steps involved in the release of lien process and would like to understand what actions I need to take to resolve this issue and ensure the lien is properly released.
Dolan W.
Hello! My name is Dolan and thank you so much for coming to the site. Once you’ve identified the lienholder (usually it's the county assessor), you’ll need to resolve the outstanding debt. Depending on the circumstances, this might mean paying off the unpaid taxes yourself if they were not cleared during the sale. If you’re paying the lien yourself, make sure to get documentation from the lienholder showing that the debt has been satisfied. Usually, this may just require going online to get a receipt or proof that the property has a zero balance. What else you can get is a lien release or satisfaction of lien. The lienholder is responsible for filing the release with the county recorder’s office (these are often in the same agencies), but it’s always a good idea to follow up and make sure it’s actually recorded. Let us know how else we can help! Thanks!
