Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Agreement To Sell Real Estate
Pennsylvania
Acceptance of residential Real Estate Offer in Pennsylvania
Selling Agent told our Buyers Agent (i am buyer) that there was another buyer, that they would do highest & best / Best and Final offers by Sat NOON time. We provided our best and final offer by Sat at NOON. Sunday approx. 3PM the sellers agent told our buyers agent that the sellers have selected your buyers offer, it was due to removing the inspection contingency and being within 5K of the other bidder, we were very excited. We do not have a conter-signed PA real estate contract, we have an email note from the seller's agent representing the seller to our buyers agent indicating the the seller has accepted your buyers offer. My Question: the acceptance was in writing (email) and signed by sender of email - Sellers agent, specifically indicating they accepted our offer which was signed and in writing. Subsequently the sellers agent indicated when they did not sign our offer, that since they had not signed and had not signed the specific contract, that they were accepting a 2nd offer at a higher price. Any hope of wining based on the acceptance of our offer was first, it was in writing (email) and signed by sellers agent?
Angela H.
The agent’s email will not be enough. You will need the agreement signed by the sellers, as they are the contracting party.
Real Estate
Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
Are there risks in accepting a quitclaim deed?
I recently inherited a property from my aunt and I am considering transferring ownership to my cousin using a quitclaim deed. I have heard that there are some risks associated with this type of deed, and I wanted to make sure that I understand all of the potential implications before making a decision. I am looking for advice on how to proceed in a way that is most beneficial for all parties involved.
Bobby H.
There are generally three broad categories of deeds mostly used to convey property in Georgia, depending on certain warranties, or the lack thereof, contained therein. These categorizes include warranty deeds, limited warranty deeds, and quitclaim deeds. In a warranty or general warranty deed, the grantor generally warrants title, and promises to defend the grantee against third party title claims that either arose, or which are based on events occuring at anytime during the grantor's ownership of the property OR the ownership of any of the grantor's predecessors in title. In a limited warranty deed, a grantor generally warrants and promises to defend the grantee against title claims which arose, or which are based on events occuring during the grantor's ownership only. A quitclaim deed generally contains no warranties. Therefore, the grantee or transferee of a quitclaim deed has little to no recourse against the grantor if there is an issue with the title to the property based on the deed alone. Quitclaim deeds are often used when there is little or no money being exchanged for the property such as when there is a transfer of family property, between family members or where property is gifted.
Real Estate
Mortgage Loan Agreement
Pennsylvania
If I am separating with someone I co-own a house with, not married, are there any repercussions to me moving out of the house before we have a signed agreement?
I bought a house with my boyfriend, we are now breaking up. We built the house and moved in in October 2022. It's too soon to sell and make money off of it. I am willing to move out, but I want the cash that I initially put into the house during settlement. We are attempting to come up with an agreement, which I would like an attorney to review before I sign.
Ryan W.
Whether there are any repercussions depends upon the circumstances surrounding your purchase. For example, whether or not a mortgage exists can affect the situation. If you are on the mortgage, it would not matter what agreement you sign with your boyfriend, you are still on the hook for the mortgage unless you can negotiate with the lender to remove yourself from the mortgage. It may require your boyfriend to refinance. You are certainly making the right move by having an attorney review any agreement between you and your boyfriend. You just need to consider the third-party lender and how that may also affect you.

Purchase and Sale Agreement
Texas
Does a wholesaler need to be at closing?
As a wholesale from another state trying to execute a purchase and sale agreement on a property, do i need to be physically present in that state to complete this process. For example, i live in Texas. The property is in California. How do i conduct a purchase and sale agreement with a seller or their real estate agent. I live in Texas. I am trying to execute a purchase and sale agreement with a seller or their real estate agent who live in California.
Rebecca S.
The short answer is you can be an out of state purchaser but you need to right support team behind you. Signing the contract can be done electronically and you don’t need to be in California to do that. Either a real estate attorney or hiring your own agent.
Real Estate
Purchase and Sale Agreement
North Carolina
Title issues in a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of buying a piece of property, and I am currently in the middle of negotiating the purchase and sale agreement. I am concerned about potential title issues that may arise due to the history of the property, as I am not sure if the seller has clear title to the property. I would like to know what I should look out for in the agreement to ensure that I am protected from any potential title issues.
N'kia N.
A typical purchase and sale agreement for real property (commonly called an "Offer to Purchase and Contract" in North Carolina) includes due diligence. Due diligence is the buyer's opportunity to investigate the property. During the due diligence period, the buyer will usually have the property inspected. However, the buyer may also conduct a title search on the property. Additionally, a purchase and sale agreement might specify that the deal is contingent upon the seller being able to deliver clear title to the property. Anyone who is considering entering into a purchase and sale agreement for real property should also consider at least having an attorney review the agreement. It probably would not hurt to have attorney representation throughout the transaction.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
