Real Property
Purchase and Sale Agreement
Massachusetts
Breaches of a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a property and have recently signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement. However, I am concerned that the Seller may be in breach of the Agreement, and I am seeking legal advice regarding my rights in this situation. Specifically, I would like to know what remedies are available to me if the Seller does breach the Agreement.
Moss S.
The usual remedy for a Seller breach of a Purchase and Sale Agreement is known as specific performance. That means that you could sue the Seller to force him to complete the sale of the property. To see if there are any other remedies, I would have to review the agreement.
Real Property
Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
Can a quitclaim deed be used to transfer ownership of a property without the consent of all parties involved?
I recently discovered that my ex-spouse, without my knowledge or consent, used a quitclaim deed to transfer our jointly owned property solely into their name. We had agreed to sell the property and split the proceeds, but they have now refused to do so, claiming full ownership. I would like to know if a quitclaim deed can be valid in this situation and if I have any legal recourse to regain my share of the property.
Jon F.
No. You would need to have every owner sign away on their ownership. There is no way to divest people of their property without them knowing absent some kind of fraud. The quitclaim deed doing what you described in the way you described it can be challenged and should be challenged successfully.
Real Property
Real Estate Sale Agreement
Massachusetts
Can a seller back out of a Real Estate Sale Agreement after signing it?
I recently entered into a Real Estate Sale Agreement with a seller to purchase a property. However, a few days after signing the agreement, the seller expressed their desire to back out of the deal. They claim that they received a better offer from another buyer. I'm wondering if the seller has the right to do this, or if I have any legal recourse to enforce the agreement and proceed with the purchase of the property.
Moss S.
It all depends on the contingencies that are contained in the agreement. Some of those contingencies include an inspection, financing, title defects and more. I would have to review the agreement to let you know precisely what rights that you have to terminate the transaction.
Landlord Tenant
Residential Lease Agreement
New York
Pets and residential lease agreements?
I am a tenant in a residential property and I am considering adopting a pet. The lease agreement does not specifically mention anything about having pets in the residence. I am looking to understand the legal implications of having a pet in the rental property and what my rights are as a tenant in this situation.
Paola R.
It depends on the type of premises(building) you reside. There are specific laws that are applicable even if the lease does not mention certain terms and provisions. Your rights as a tenant not only arise from the lease but also from certain laws. It also depends on the type of pet you are thinking of adopting, ie. service animal. I am a tenant’s attorney.
Real Property
Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
Obligations after receiving a quitclaim deed?
I recently purchased a home in a different state from the seller. The seller provided me with a quitclaim deed, but I am unsure of what my obligations are now that I own the property. I am concerned about potential legal issues that may arise and want to make sure I am taking the proper steps to protect both myself and the seller.
Bobby H.
Provided you have fully paid the purchase price, you should not have any further obligations as it relates to the Seller. This, however, may depend on whether there are specific terms in the sales agreement that survive the closing. Although your obligations as the new owner of the property to other persons largely depends on the state, in most, if not all states, you will be responsible for paying any taxes or assements to the state, county, or any municipality in which the propery is located subject to any qualifying exemptions. Also, most states impose a general duty on propery owners to avoid and/or discover and warn of certain risks of harm to any guests or persons invited by you to be present on the property depending on how the property is used (e.g., like whether the property is used for residential or commerical purposes). In some states, there may even be a similar, although limited duty to avoid or warn of certain risks of harm to trespassers on the property. A home or property owner's insurance policy will likely provide some protection with respect to the latter. Additionall, a quitclaim deed generally does not provide any protection for the purchaser if there's an issue with the title to the property. Therefore, an owner's title insurance policy may be advisable if you have not already obtained one.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
