Can my mother force me to sell our shared building?
If I own half of a 2 flat building and my mother owns the other half, can she force me to sell the building or if she dies do I become full owner despite the will?
How does a tax lien affect property sale proceeds for tenants in common?
I plan to purchase a property as tenants in common. I would like to know, if the other owner ended up with a tax lien against the property, in the event of a sale, would that only come out of that owner's percentage of ownership, or would that be paid out of the total proceeds of both owners?
What does a 3E quit claim deed exempt mean for my property?
My title deed type for my house is listed as "3E-QUIT CLAIM DEED EXEMPT"
I am the sole individual on the mortgage but not on the title. The other individual on the title has not lived on the property in 2 years (also has not had any financial obligations on the property since). We were never married, but I am married now to another individual who now lives in the same house with me. What does 3E really mean? And what are my options getting a quit claim?
Can I sell a house with a quitclaim deed without a mortgage in my name?
I had a lease with an option to purchase. After about 6 months the owners contacted us to tell us they had financial problems and didn't pay the mortgage. We had an attorney draw up new legal papers that voided the old document and gave me the right to purchase the home for payoff. I paid the back payments to bring the house current and have been making all obligations and repairs for over 6 months since. They signed a quitclaim deed and the attorney drew up a new lease option to purchase which stated that all payements are made by me and all responsibilities are mine regarding the house. It further said I could mortgage the home anytime into my name and all equity is mine. I am granted the right to purchase at whatever the payoff is.
Here's the problem. I'd like to sell the house right now and there is a good deal of equity in it so there would be a nice profit for me. Do I have to put the mortgage in my name first or not? I don't really have great credit and would like to just sell and move on.
Also, does the quitclaim give me rights to the property or is it a useless piece of paper?
What rights does a homeowner have against a contractor's mechanic's lien?
0000What are the homeowner's rights regarding a contractor mechanic's lien on new construction which has been filed with the county and served? If a homeowner made all payments for construction as work progressed, but refused payment of a final small sum for clearly disputed additional contractor's charges, what rights does the homeowner have and how should he proceed after receiving the lien?
