Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers
Real Estate
Property Deed
South Dakota
We want to transfer land to our children but we want to still get the income and pay taxes until we die what kind of deed is this
We have three children the attorney made it a warranty deed to transfer our land to them but we still want to have the rent and pay the taxes what kind of deed should this be
T. Phillip B.
Depending on the land and business, I'd consider making an LLC for asset protection reasons. Then you could have a trust as the member. If you need to get the property out of your estate, this will dictate what to do with the trust.

quitclaim from deed
i have frienen is on my deed so he wants quit from deed how much charge
Michael T.
Generally speaking, getting your friend "off the title" just needs a deed granting you his interest in the property. A real estate lawyer could prepare such a deed for only a few hundred dollars. But that does not include having a title examination done, and it doesn't include the recordation cost (the deed needs to be recorded in the local land records, and the cost varies).

Real Estate Sales Contract
Pennsylvania
This is a very insignificant question but one that I cannot find an answer. On the PAR Agreement for the Sale of Real Estate there are numbers listed in parentheses after each section, such as, Purchase Price and Deposits (4-14). Are the numbers referencing something? What is the significance?
I am a trainer here in the Northeast and assisting our internal team players to understand a contract and pull information that is pertinent to their transaction.
Vicki P.
I would need to see the agreement so I could know what you mean.

Operating Agreement
New York
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.
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.

Do you handle Forbearance in Ga?
We currently were in the Forbearance program. My father passed away he is the only one listed on the title, however him and my mother are still listed on the loan. The bank will not let us do a loan motification since my father is deceased . They are wanting the missed payments all at once or they say we loose the house
Meghan T.
Hello. First, I would like to say I am sorry for your loss. Regarding your question, I can provide a more general type of answer since more specifics are needed to determine the rights of you and your mother. The ability to continue with a forbearance program under these circumstances depends on the type of program applied to this loan. For example; the COVID hardship forbearance program applies to ALL federally backed and federally sponsored mortgages (HUD/ FHA, VA, USDA, Fannie Mae/ Freddie Mac). Depending on the loan type, a total of 18 months of forbearance may be applied to the loan. If the bank applied a different type of forbearance program, there may be different stipulations and mandates. Therefore, it is important to know what type of forbearance program is being applied and what the stipulations are. In any event, forbearance is an agreement by the bank to not do something (such as place the loan in default for missing a mortgage payment) for some stipulated period of time. The mere fact that your father is the only person listed on title and has passed away, may not change that agreement especially if the loan is federally backed. This is because although many loans and forbearance agreements contain a due on sale transfer provisions, federal law prohibits enforcement of these provisions for federally backed mortgages when the transfer is death related. Thus, depending on the circumstances, the bank may be prohibited from immediately accelerating (requiring "the missed payments all at once").
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
