Commercial Lease
Ohio
How is the lease renewed at the end of the lease term?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a three-year commercial lease for my business. I am looking to understand the process of renewing the lease at the end of the three-year term. I am interested in learning more about the process, the timeline, and what I need to do to ensure that I can continue to operate my business at this location.
Paul S.
If your lease has a renewal option, then you renew by following that process, which involves giving notice during the specified time frame. If you did not include a renewal option in your lease, then you'll need to contact the landlord 6-12 months before the end of the term, and inform the landlord that you want to renew the lease. Then you'll have to negotiate the terms with the landlord.
Real Estate
Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
When to use a quitclaim deed?
I recently inherited a piece of property from a family member and I am looking to transfer ownership to another family member. I am not sure if a Quitclaim deed is the correct way to do this, and I am seeking legal advice to understand when to use a Quitclaim deed in this situation.
Bobby H.
Notwithstanding any statory formalities required for purposes of recording in the public records, in theory, any writing in which an owner intends to transfer propery that is adquatedly described and delivered to the transferee may function as a deed. However, in practice, you will find 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 property OR the ownership of any of the grantor's predecessors in title. In a limited warranty deed, a grantor generally only warrants and promises to defend the grantee against title claims which arose, or which are based on events occuring during the grantor's ownership. 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. Generally, in circumstances where there is a transfer of family property, between family members, in which no money is being exchanged, a quitclaim deed is fine. However, there may be certain tax consequences if the family member were to later resale the property. He/she may want to consult a tax professional prior to do so.

Purchase And Sale Agreement
Massachusetts
Purchase and sale agreement and closing costs?
I am in the process of purchasing a home and I am looking at signing a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am trying to understand what closing costs I will need to pay in order to complete the transaction. I want to make sure I am aware of all the costs associated with this purchase so that I can plan accordingly.
Moss S.
In Massachusetts it is advisable to have an attorney represent you in negotiating a Purchase and Sale Agreement. Purchasing a home is usually the most expensive item that a person buys in their lifetime. Regarding closing costs, they are driven mostly by your lender.
Real Estate
Purchase And Sale Agreement
California
Closing date in a purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a property and have a Purchase and Sale Agreement in place. The agreement includes a closing date, but I am uncertain as to what the implications are if this date is not met. I am interested in understanding my rights and obligations concerning the closing date, and any risks that I could be exposed to if the date is not adhered to.
Rosemary L.
If a closing date on a purchase agreement is not met, generally the party who has breached the agreement may not be allowed to close the transaction. Often there are penalties contained in a purchase agreement to reimburse the non-breaching party for their time, expense and fees caused by the breach of a party to fail to close on a closing date. However, if the parties are both working toward closing the sale, but certain impediments get in the way of a timely closing (such as a survey which is not completed, or a lender not having approved a loan in a timely fashion), the buyer and seller will often reach an agreement to continue the closing date to a later date. In some cases, a seller might require a buyer to pay a further amount on the deposit to insure that the buyer intends to proceed, particularly if the buyer is to forfeiet the deposit as a result of its failure to close 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.

View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project.
