My practice involves counseling businesses and individuals on a variety of contracts, such as business formation, technology/IP, real estate, leases, and even domestic relations agreements. Much of my practice is dedicated to litigation. As such, I approach contract and transactional work from a litigation perspective by advising clients of the risks involved in failing to develop proper contracts. It takes more than knowledge of the law to be a good lawyer. A good lawyer is honest and forthcoming with clients and has a counseling ethos. And, to me, a good lawyer stands in the shoes of the client when considering how to best serve that client. Whether my client is a business or an individual, I am passionate about helping my clients understand their rights, responsibilities, risks, and possibilities.

Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Purchase Agreement

Washington

Asked on Oct 31, 2023

Can I back out of a purchase agreement?

I recently signed a purchase agreement for a house. I was unaware of some major repairs that need to be done and now I am worried that I won't be able to afford them. I am trying to figure out if there is any way I can back out of the purchase agreement and if so, what steps would I need to take.

Merry K.

Answered Nov 10, 2023

A well-written purchase offer usually includes several ways for a buyer to back out of the purchase without any penalty - for example, if the buyer doesn't like the inspector's report, one can usually back out on that basis - another typical one is failing to obtain a loan. I hope your buyer's agent wrote up the offer in a way that gave you 2 or 3 "escape clauses" - you should talk with your agent, but if there are problems, I would recommend that you have a real estate attorney review your offer and help you get out of the offer - if possible - with minimal or no cost to you.

Residential Lease Agreement

Ohio

Asked on Sep 10, 2023

Security deposits in residential lease agreement?

I recently signed a residential lease agreement for an apartment. I was informed that I would need to pay a security deposit as part of the agreement. I am trying to understand what the security deposit covers and what happens to the deposit at the end of the lease agreement. I want to make sure I am fully aware of my rights and obligations regarding this security deposit.

Georgie A.

Answered Sep 15, 2023

A security deposit in a residential lease serves the following key purposes: 1. Property Protection: It covers damage or excessive wear and tear to the rental property during the tenant's stay. 2. Rent Arrears: It can be used to cover unpaid rent or other financial obligations if the tenant fails to pay rent. 3. Tenant Responsibility: It encourages tenants to take care of the property and fulfill lease obligations. 4. Landlord's Peace of Mind: It acts as insurance for landlords against potential losses. 5. Legal Compliance: Landlords must follow specific laws for holding and returning deposits. 6. Tenant Refund: Tenants get the deposit back if they meet lease terms, encouraging compliance. 7. Understanding deposit terms and local regulations is crucial to prevent disputes.

Quitclaim Deed

California

Asked on Oct 1, 2023

Recording a quitclaim deed: how?

I recently inherited a property from my aunt and I am looking to transfer the title to my name. My aunt had created a Quitclaim deed transferring the title to me, but I am unsure of the process to record the deed and make it official. I would like to understand the process of recording a quitclaim deed to ensure that the title to the property is legally transferred to me.

Boris K.

Answered Nov 14, 2023

You probably want an attorney to review the deed and make sure it looks ok. You also want an attorney to help you with completing the Preliminary Change of Ownership Form (used by county to determine reassessment of taxes). If all of that looks good, then you want to record the deed with the county recorder. I can review deed and help with Preliminary Change of Ownership Form for $295. Same Day Service.

Deed of Reconveyance

Minnesota

Asked on Dec 10, 2021

Can you add someone to title deeds?

I am 92+ years old and would like to add my son’s name to my condo deed. We have the paperwork done and notorized. What’s next?

Jaren J.

Answered Dec 17, 2021

You need to file it with the county recorder or registrar and pay the recording fees. You can take it in to the county to file (if the desk is open . . call ahead) or give it to a title company to record (and pay their service fee).

Purchase and Sale Agreement

Florida

Asked on Sep 5, 2023

Who drafts the purchase and sale agreement?

I am in the process of purchasing a property and am in need of a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am unclear on who typically drafts the agreement and am looking for advice from a lawyer. I understand that the agreement should be tailored to my specific needs and am looking for guidance on how to best proceed.

Linda W.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

Either the seller or the buyer can prepare a purchase agreement. Like any contract, it can be a standard document that one party uses in the normal course of business or it can be the end result of back-and-forth negotiations. Most often, the buyer's real estate agent will write up and prepare the purchase agreement for a house. Note that agents (not being practicing attorneys themselves) can't create their own contracts. In Florida commonly the parties utilize the Florida Realtors/FloridaBar-ASIS-6 Rev. 10/21/2021. That is an example of a approved form.
