Quitclaim Deed

California

Asked on Oct 3, 2023

Do quitclaim deeds expire?

I recently inherited a piece of property from my late uncle. I have recently received a quitclaim deed for the property, but I'm not sure if it is still valid. I am interested in selling the property, but I need to know if the quitclaim deed is still valid and will not expire.

Sarah S.

Answered Nov 3, 2023

A quitclaim deed typically maintains its validity over time, but there are key factors to keep in mind: Proper Execution: To ensure the quitclaim deed remains valid, it must have been correctly executed when your late uncle transferred the property to you. This usually entails the presence of a notary public or witnesses and adherence to your state's legal requirements for deed execution. Recording: For safeguarding your interests and confirming the deed's legitimacy, it should be officially recorded with the relevant government office, often the county recorder's office. Recording serves to establish a public record of the property transfer.

Quitclaim Deed

Georgia

Asked on Sep 30, 2023

What is a quitclaim deed?

I recently inherited a property from a family member and I was told it was transferred to me through a quitclaim deed. I am not familiar with this type of deed and would like to know more about it, including what rights and responsibilities I have as the recipient of this deed. I have also heard that quitclaim deeds can be used to transfer property from one person to another, so I would like to know more about what this process entails.

Bobby H.

Answered Oct 20, 2023

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 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.

Warranty Deed

Illinois

Asked on Jun 1, 2022

CAN YOU TELL ME THE PROCEDURES OF A WARRANTY DEED

I RECIEVED A WARRANTY DEED IN THE MAIL AFTER THE SELLERS REFUSED TO SPEAK TO ME AFTER A FIRE OCCURED LAST YEAR

T. Phillip B.

Answered Jul 12, 2022

Did you purchase the property before or after the fire? If before, did you have insurance? If after, what was the agreement you had with respect to the insurance proceeds the Seller was to receive? The Warranty Deed is what is offered when there is a transfer of real estate and the seller warrants ownership to another. Frequently this will also involve title insurance to back up the warranty deed if there were other claims against the property

Real Estate Contract for Sale

Iowa

Asked on Dec 28, 2023

If a property is under contract as "seller financed" is it possible for the last buyer to enter into an option to buy contract with a new buyer?

The current owner of a property is under contract making monthly payments with the previous seller/title holder who is financing the loan. The property under contract is not occupied by the current owner. Another party is interested in buying the property, but desires to do research first, and would like to enter into a 6-12 month option to buy contract with the current owner. Is it possible for two contracts to exist on the same property?

Brad B.

Answered Jan 16, 2024

Typically interests in real estate are assignable - meaning either the buyer or the seller could sell their rights under the contract to another party. An interested buyer could also enter into a contract where the second buyer have the right to buy the property even though the seller doesn't have full legal title to the property yet. Assuming there is no contractual provision restricting the assignment of rights under the contract, Buyer I and Buyer II could enter into an agreement that states that Buyer II would have the option to purchase Buyer I's interest under the contract. If Buyer II executed the option, then Buyer II would start making the payments are required by the contract. It's important to note that Buyer I would still be liable to make the payments to seller if Buyer II failed to do so. As an agreement between Buyer I and Buyer II does not change the contract between Buyer I and Seller. If the Seller is involved, the original contract could be amended or assigned to Buyer II. As an alternative, Buyer I and Buyer could enter into an agreement where upon Buyer II's executing their option to buy the real estate, Buyer II would provide funds to Buyer I, who would in turn pay Seller what is owned under the contract. Buyer I would then be obligated to convey the real estate to Buyer II. Depending on the facts there might be other alternatives or possible solutions. Each matter depends on the facts. An attorney would be able to review the transaction and make a determination of what the best course would be given the client's needs.

Lease To Purchase Option Agreement

Tennessee

Asked on Jun 15, 2022

If you're doing a rent to own on a house and the owner dies, can the executor or heirs kick you out of the house, raise the monthly price, or raise the amount of the house or do they have to honor the contract in it's entirety? In Tennessee

I have been renting to own for a few years now. We pay so much a month and have put additional money in the house fixing the house up. We have a certain price that we are paying for the house. The owner died yesterday, and the sister/executor of the will called me this morning saying he died and they were coming to look at the house. Said they were probably going to raise the monthly payment and probably going to raise the price of the house. I'm scared they are either going to kick me out or not let me do rent to own or raise the price. She also said I owed rent for this month which I have already paid!

Rebecca R.

Answered Jun 17, 2022

If your rent-to-own contract is in writing then the contract should be binding on the owner's estate, although there may be some practical challenges in enforcing it. If your contract is not in writing you will have several practical proof problems to overcome, and you may have trouble overcoming the executor's challenges to the contract. As a tenant in possession you may have additional rights to recover investments in the house, or maintain your current amount of rent. As with the purchase option, your rights may depend on the language of your written agreement.
