Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Real Estate

Purchase Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 30, 2023

Are oral purchase agreements valid?

I'm in the process of purchasing a property and the seller and I have verbally agreed to the terms of the purchase. I'm concerned about the validity of the agreement and want to ensure that I am properly protected under the law. I am looking for clarification on whether an oral purchase agreement is legally binding.

Michael C.

Answered Oct 31, 2023

Your question suggests a real estate purchase. Oral contracts for the sale or transfer of land are subject to the statute of frauds in most states. This requires such agreements to be in writing and signed by the parties to be enforceable. Although there are some limited exceptions, I recommend trying to get your verbal agreement memorialized in writing as soon as possible.

Real Estate Purchase Agreement

Connecticut

Asked on Apr 19, 2023

Can the purchase price be negotiated and, if so, how?

I am interested in purchasing a piece of property, and am curious if the purchase price can be negotiated. The seller has listed the property for a price which is slightly above what I am willing to pay, and I would like to know if it is possible to negotiate the price lower. I have had experience in negotiating prices in the past, but am uncertain of the legalities involved in this particular situation.

Thomas L.

Answered May 19, 2023

Always. The purchase price is an offer. You can always make a counter-offer.

Operating Agreement

New York

Asked on Jul 21, 2024

What should be included in an operating agreement for a small business?

I am in the process of starting a small business with a partner and we are looking to draft an operating agreement. We want to ensure that all important aspects of our business are covered in this agreement, such as ownership percentages, decision-making processes, profit distribution, and dispute resolution mechanisms. We are seeking guidance on what specific clauses and provisions should be included in the operating agreement to protect our interests and ensure a smooth operation of the business.

Arthur S.

Answered Aug 7, 2024

LLC Operating Agreements are comprehensive in nature. You have identified several important provisions. Some other provisions that may be considered are capital contribution obligations, Buy/Sell provisions (including Impasse Buy/Sell), financing guarantee obligations, (if any), assignability provisions, tax allocation provisions, SPE provisions, governing law provisions, etc. The list is numerous and much depends on the nature and scope of the business and specific needs of the parties. I have participated in CLE lectures on this subject.

Co-Ownership Agreement

New York

Asked on Feb 12, 2025

Need advice on Co-ownership Agreement.

I am considering purchasing a property with a friend and we want to draft a Co-ownership Agreement to outline our rights and responsibilities. However, we have different financial contributions and I want to ensure that my investment is protected in case of any disputes or if one of us wants to sell the property. Can you provide guidance on what should be included in the agreement to address these concerns and any other important aspects we should consider?

Damien B.

Answered Feb 13, 2025

Hello. An option is to create an LLC to purchase the property. This would provide liability protection. As part of the LLC, the members would have an Operating Agreement outlining the terms and conditions of managing the LLC (which owns the property), including provisions regarding financial contributions, disbursement, resolutions of disputes or disagreements, and how a property sale would occur.

Residential Lease Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Mar 8, 2022

What are the laws for subletting a bedroom in 2 bhk appartment without landlord consent in Illinois?

I wanted to sublet my apartment without landlord consent, since my lease with this landlord doesn't allow sublease, May I know if there is any possible way to make this bedroom sublet without landlord agreement. My city is Peoria, Illinois

T. Phillip B.

Answered Apr 15, 2022

If your lease doesn't allow a sublease, you can't do it. I'd just approach the landlord and see what could be done. If the person moving in would be willing to sign a one-year lease and do the typical background check, the landlord may let you out of your lease.

I 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.

I 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.
