Commercial Lease

Texas

Asked on May 12, 2021

What is a triple net lease?

I want to understand these better.

George O.

Answered May 12, 2021

A triple net lease designates the tenant (lessee) as having the sole responsibility for any and all costs associated to the asset being leased in the agreement, with those costs being the net real estate taxes on the leased asset, net building insurance, and net common area maintenance. The lease received its name from the three “net” fees and may also be called a Net-Net-Net Lease.

Property Transfer Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jan 3, 2023

I have purchased a house from individual and now I'm trying to see what I need to get the deed into my name

I purchase a house for $7,500 from an older gentleman that I work with and it's been 2 months since I've paid it off and I still haven't received any kind of paperwork to get the date in my name from him so now I'm trying to get it started what do I need to do

Judi P.

Answered Feb 15, 2023

Although I am not licensed in Texas, I have extensive knowledge and experience in real estate law and can provide you with general advice about your issue. In a nutshell and without knowing the particular details of your transaction with this older gentleman, you will ultimately need to obtain a legal document from him conveying title to the property into your name.

Contract for Deed

Texas

Asked on Feb 14, 2022

Need help with a property issue

My wife and I took over a house from a friend in August of 2008 due to his job transfer from Houston to Nigeria. We agreed to the following terms: We will continue paying the mortgage plus a second loan attached, apply for mortgage approval, and change ownership to our name. We had a written agreement. We applied for a loan in 2009 but was not approved due to poor credit. We decided to wait and continue paying and reducing the outstanding before reapplying. In August of 2021, we reapplied and were given a loan approval to assume the house in our name. Our agent requested that we should have the other party communicate with them. I called and informed him to reach out to our agent but he kept promising to call the agent but never kept his promise. About the middle of January 2022, he stopped picking up our calls. We sent several emails and he never cared to respond. We need help on what to do next.

Kelvin R.

Answered Mar 8, 2022

You may have an executory contract under Texas law. There may be an argument to be made for an equitable title in the property. You need a lawyer to review the document to ensure compliance under applicable contract for deed or other laws. Without seeing the contract we simply have no way to know your options. Roquemore Skierski PLLC are experienced, Texas-based attorneys who support owner operated, owner-managed businesses and entrepreneurs with a full range of legal services.

Purchase and Sale Agreement

Texas

Asked on May 12, 2021

Does Texas have any specific real estate rules?

I am moving from California and wanted to see if there is anything I should know.

George O.

Answered May 12, 2021

Like any state, Texas does have rules specific to transactions occurring within its state lines. For example, the Texas Property Code governs most real estate matters, along with Landlord/Tenant matters. However realtors and transactions of that nature are governed by the Texas Occupations Code, which seems odd, but that is how it is.

Asked on Oct 15, 2025

How to get my home equity after foreclosure

My home got foreclosed for 120 thousand and it's worth 250 thousand

Jerome L.

Answered Nov 4, 2025

If your Texas home sold for more than what you owed, you may be entitled to what is called surplus or excess funds. These funds are held by the county or trustee after foreclosure. To claim them, you must file a petition for release of surplus funds with proof of ownership and sale details. An attorney can help confirm eligibility and make sure you recover the full amount before others claim it.

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.
