Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers
Real Estate
Warranty Deed
Texas
what do I need to do transfer the property on mine and my husband 's name I have two of my kids on it?
my house is on my name including my husband and two of my kids
Craig C.
Unfortunately, this requires the standard lawyer answer of "it depends." However, at face value it appears you would need to file a general warranty deed conveying the property from whoever you want "OFF" of the deed to you.
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.
Real Estate
Financing Agreement
New York
Can refinancing my mortgage help me save money in the long run?
I am currently considering refinancing my mortgage and would like to know if this option can help me save money in the long run. I purchased my home three years ago and have been making regular mortgage payments since then. However, I recently learned that interest rates have significantly dropped since I obtained my mortgage, and I am wondering if refinancing would allow me to secure a lower interest rate and reduce my monthly mortgage payments. I am also curious to know if there are any potential drawbacks or costs associated with refinancing that I should be aware of before making a decision.
Arthur S.
Depending on the rate differential between your current mortgage loan and the refinancing proposal, the saving in the long term can be substantilal. In the short term, the savings in debt service payments will be off-set by the cost of the refinancing, e.g. commitment and loan fees, appraisal and other underwriting costs imposed by a new lender), mortgage title fees and atty fees (taking into account you, the borrower, customarily pays the new lender's atty costs). That said, many residential lenders limit the costs to residential borrowers of the financing costs of any such refinancing),
Real Estate
Commercial Lease
Florida
What's the parking situation in a commercial lease?
I am currently in the process of signing a commercial lease for a retail store and I need to know the parking situation that is included in the lease. I have read through the lease and I'm not sure if the parking is included or if I have to arrange it myself. I need to know if I will be able to provide adequate parking for my customers and employees.
Diane D.
The only way to answer this question is to have an attorney read the lease.
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.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
