Quitclaim Deed

Georgia

Asked on Jun 8, 2024

Can a quitclaim deed be used to transfer ownership of a property without the consent of all parties involved?

I recently discovered that my ex-spouse, without my knowledge or consent, used a quitclaim deed to transfer our jointly owned property solely into their name. We had agreed to sell the property and split the proceeds, but they have now refused to do so, claiming full ownership. I would like to know if a quitclaim deed can be valid in this situation and if I have any legal recourse to regain my share of the property.

Jon F.

Answered Jun 11, 2024

No. You would need to have every owner sign away on their ownership. There is no way to divest people of their property without them knowing absent some kind of fraud. The quitclaim deed doing what you described in the way you described it can be challenged and should be challenged successfully.

Quitclaim Deed

Florida

Asked on Oct 3, 2023

Quitclaim deed vs. title transfer?

I recently purchased a property and am in the process of transferring the title. I am trying to understand the difference between a Quitclaim deed and a title transfer. I am looking to make sure I am making the best decision for my situation when transferring the title of the property.

Linda W.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

A Quitclaim Deed is a form of title transfer as is a Warranty Deed and a Special Warranty Deed. Quitclaim Deed – provides the grantee with the least protection; it contains no promises or warranties, and only conveys whatever title and interest the grantor has. A quitclaim deed makes no assurance that the grantor actually has an ownership interest in a property; it merely states that if the grantor does, they release those ownership rights. Quitclaim deeds are typically used to transfer property in non-sale situations, such as transfers of property between family members. Warranty Deed - makes a promise to the buyer that the seller has good title to the property. A quitclaim deed, on the other hand, makes no promises.

Resolutions

New York

Asked on Jun 26, 2024

Can a resolution passed by a homeowners' association be challenged in court?

I am a homeowner in a residential community that is governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). Recently, the HOA passed a resolution that imposes new restrictions on the use of common areas, which significantly impacts my ability to enjoy the amenities provided. I believe that this resolution is unfair and may even be in violation of our HOA's governing documents. I would like to know if there is a legal recourse to challenge this resolution in court and potentially have it overturned.

Arthur S.

Answered Aug 7, 2024

HOA resolutions are generally enforceable if they are reasonable, clear and comply with state and local laws. They cannot override state or federal laws. In NYS HOAs are generally governed by the NY Business Corporation Law and NY Condominium Act. I would need to know more about the scope of the Resolution and the process used to pass it before I would be able to provided advice as to viability.

Real Estate Purchase Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 3, 2024

Can the seller back out of a Real Estate Purchase Agreement after signing it?

I am in the process of purchasing a property and have signed a Real Estate Purchase Agreement with the seller. However, the seller has recently expressed some concerns about the sale and is considering backing out. I am uncertain about the legal implications in this situation and would like to know if the seller has the right to do so after signing the agreement.

Damien B.

Answered Dec 3, 2024

Hello! My name is Damien Bosco, Esq. My law office is in Long Island City, across from Manhattan. A seller's ability to back out of a real estate purchase agreement after signing it is generally very limited, as contracts for the sale of real estate are legally binding once both parties sign it. The seller's ability to back out typically depends on the specific contingencies outlined in the agreement. For instance, if the contract includes a contingency that hasn't been satisfied (e.g., the buyer's financing falls through), the seller may have grounds to terminate. You may want an attorney to review the Agreement to see whether there is a potential breach of contract claim. Feel free to reach out.

Purchase Contract

New York

Asked on Jul 27, 2024

Can a seller back out of a purchase contract after accepting an offer?

I recently made an offer on a property and the seller accepted it, and we signed a purchase contract outlining the terms and conditions of the sale. However, a few days later, the seller informed me that they have received a higher offer from another buyer and now want to back out of our agreement. I am wondering if the seller has the legal right to do so, and if not, what options do I have to enforce the purchase contract and proceed with the sale?

Arthur S.

Answered Sep 3, 2024

A contract "purchaser" has definite rights under its contract to purchase the property. The contract is binding on both parties. Every contract is different...and some do contain provisions entitling either part to terminate the contract on the occurrence of certain events or prior to the expiration of certain time period,,,,but it would be unusual for a contract to entitle a Seller to terminate in the absence of Purchaser's breach or the occurrence of a specified event. Assuming your contract (i) does not entitle your seller to simply walk away from his obligations under the contract simply because he no longer wants to sell to you (in this case, because he received a higher offer), and (ii) does not prohibit the commencement by you of a "specific enforcement" action to force your Seller to transfer title to you in compliance with the contract enforce, then, and in such event, you are entitled to commence an immediate action to specifically enforce your rights under the contract. Further, concurrently with the commencement of such action, you are also entitled to immediately file a "lis pendens" against the property pending the outcome of your action. A lis pendens is a notice to the world (filed against the property) that you have commenced an action to enforce your contract....and anyone acquiring title to the property after the filing of the lis pendens does so subject to your superior right to title acquire title. The filing of a lis pendens is a very powerful tool and effectively tells all other prospective buyers of the property that they would be doing so at their own risk.
