Commercial Lease

California

Asked on Apr 21, 2023

What's the property description in a commercial lease?

I am a small business owner who is looking to lease a property for my business. I am currently reviewing a commercial lease and am trying to understand what is included in the property description in the lease. I am hoping to gain more clarity on what the property description entails and how it affects my business.

Gagandeep K.

Answered May 24, 2023

A property description in a commercial lease has to sufficiently identify the extent and boundaries of the property being leased. For example, it can be described by a map reference or by metes and bounds, or include a description such as "that certain building on the south-westerly corner of California and Larkin Streets." The commercial lease will include defined terms such as "Building," "Property," and "Premises". The defined terms define/describe the "Property" on which the "Building" is located which has the "Premises"/"Space" that is being leased. A sample definition of is Property Description in a Commercial Lease: ""Property" means the real property on which the Building is located together with the Building and all appurtenant fixtures and personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Building and/or the Property, and any other improvements now existing or hereafter constructed thereon[, including the parking lot, walkways, and landscaped ground as depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit [LETTER]]."

Purchase Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 30, 2023

Are oral purchase agreements valid?

I'm in the process of purchasing a property and the seller and I have verbally agreed to the terms of the purchase. I'm concerned about the validity of the agreement and want to ensure that I am properly protected under the law. I am looking for clarification on whether an oral purchase agreement is legally binding.

Michael C.

Answered Oct 31, 2023

Your question suggests a real estate purchase. Oral contracts for the sale or transfer of land are subject to the statute of frauds in most states. This requires such agreements to be in writing and signed by the parties to be enforceable. Although there are some limited exceptions, I recommend trying to get your verbal agreement memorialized in writing as soon as possible.

Real Estate Purchase Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jun 19, 2022

Deed

I am on a deed with my brother. He took a loan out on the home and fallen behind on payments. What can I do to protect my half of the deed and keep from losing our home.

Jason Q.

Answered Jul 8, 2022

A joint owner of real estate can generally encumber the property, such as by mortgaging their interest, without permission of the other joint owner. If your brother falls behind on payments, the lender could foreclose on his interest in the property. They could then probably force a sale of the property in an action for partition. To prevent this, one option would be to pay off or assume the loan and buy out your brother's interest in the real estate. Since he is behind on his loan, you could probably drive a pretty hard bargain. If you do nothing, the lender could eventually take your brother's interest in the property and force a sale.

Purchase and Sale Agreement

Texas

Asked on Aug 18, 2021

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.

Answered Aug 18, 2021

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.

Property Deed

South Dakota

Asked on Feb 2, 2022

We want to transfer land to our children but we want to still get the income and pay taxes until we die what kind of deed is this

We have three children the attorney made it a warranty deed to transfer our land to them but we still want to have the rent and pay the taxes what kind of deed should this be

T. Phillip B.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

Depending on the land and business, I'd consider making an LLC for asset protection reasons. Then you could have a trust as the member. If you need to get the property out of your estate, this will dictate what to do with the trust.
