Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

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.

Property Deed

Tennessee

Asked on Aug 14, 2021

Can a grantor of a filed quit claim deed sell a home without the grantees signature, or consent?

Parent signed quit claim deed over to son and it has been filed. Parent is now threatening to sell property and not give any proceeds to son who is grantee on quit claim deed. Is this even possible, legally?

Forest H.

Answered Sep 28, 2021

The quick answer is likely no. If someone has executed and filed a quitclaim deed, they have no interest left to sell. Any buyer is going to review title to the property and not accept deed from the parent.

Residential Lease Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 13, 2023

Renewal clauses in a residential lease agreement?

I am a tenant in a residential lease agreement and I recently received a renewal offer from my landlord. I am concerned that the renewal clause may not be in line with state law and would like to know what rights I have as a tenant in this situation. I would like to understand more about the renewal clause and how it applies to my situation.

Sarah S.

Answered Sep 15, 2023

In California, residential rental agreements are governed by a set of laws and regulations designed to protect both landlords and tenants. One crucial aspect of these agreements is the rental renewal clause, which outlines the terms and conditions for extending a lease beyond its initial term. Understanding how rental renewal clauses work under California law is essential for both landlords and tenants to ensure a smooth and legal renting experience. The Basics of Rental Renewal Clauses A rental renewal clause is a provision in a lease agreement that dictates the terms and conditions under which a lease can be extended after its initial term expires. In California, rental renewal clauses are subject to specific regulations to protect the rights of tenants. Here are some key points to keep in mind: Written Notice: Under California law, landlords must provide tenants with written notice of their intent to renew the lease or terminate the tenancy. This notice must be provided within a specific timeframe, usually 30 to 60 days before the current lease expires, depending on the length of the tenancy. Rent Increases: If a landlord intends to increase the rent upon renewal, they must follow the state's rent control laws, which may limit the amount and frequency of rent increases. It's essential for tenants to be aware of their rights regarding rent hikes. Tenant Rights: Tenants have the right to accept or decline a lease renewal. If a tenant decides not to renew the lease, they are generally required to provide written notice within a specified timeframe, typically 30 days before the lease expires. Lease Term: Rental renewal clauses may specify the duration of the renewed lease term. Some may automatically renew for the same term as the initial lease, while others may offer options for shorter or longer renewal periods. Review the Lease Agreement: It's crucial for both landlords and tenants to carefully review their lease agreements to understand the specific terms and conditions related to renewal. Any agreed-upon terms should be clearly documented in the lease. Benefits for Landlords and Tenants Rental renewal clauses can benefit both landlords and tenants in several ways: For Landlords: Provides a mechanism for maintaining a stable and predictable rental income. Allows landlords to retain responsible and reliable tenants for extended periods. Streamlines the leasing process by avoiding frequent turnover. For Tenants: Offers the option to secure a home for an extended period without the risk of eviction. Provides an opportunity to negotiate for more favorable lease terms or rent rates. Helps maintain housing stability, especially in competitive rental markets. Conclusion In California, understanding rental renewal clauses is essential for both landlords and tenants to ensure a fair and legal renting experience. These clauses provide a framework for extending a lease beyond its initial term, but they must adhere to state laws and regulations. Whether you're a landlord or a tenant, knowing your rights and responsibilities regarding rental renewals is crucial for a harmonious and successful landlord-tenant relationship in the Golden State.

Purchase And Sale Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 6, 2023

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.

Answered Sep 12, 2023

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.
