Will I Avoid Problems With Probate if My Mother Transfers the House to My Name Only?
My mother and I own a home jointly. She is 90 years old and would like to put the house in my name. If we did not transfer the ownership to just myself, would I have any problems with probate at the time of her passing or should I buy her part of the home for a 1.00 ?
Can a New Owner Deny Me Access to a Water Easement I've Used for 12 Years?
I own a mobile home as a rental and have been buying water from a pvt. water system for 12 years. I am on a easement type road and the county will not run a water line to my property. A well is on my property but is contaminated so the system owner who buys water from the county and has a line running past my property is the only way I can get water. The seller without notice to me has cut the connection to my property and refuses to answer telephone calls and has not replied to a letter I mailed him. I went to his house and talked to his wife and she stated that he did not want to sell me water any more. The water line belonged to someone else when I bought the property 12 years ago and this guy took it over about 4 years ago. I have been paying the water bills they put in my mailbox without fail for 12 years. I think he has to continue selling water to me. What can I do?
Who is Liable for Not Telling Me about an Encroaching Sewer Pipeline?
I bought a house 9 years ago, I understand that i have to maintain my septic tank and make repairs as needed. But now i have the state of Alaska telling me I have to replace my whole septic system because it is illegal, It seems when we bought the house the current septic tank is pipe directly below our house into our neighbors yard. This is totally illegal and now the state wants it fixed. We had no clue of this and it was never disclosed to us at the time of purchase. We just found out last week. Who can i go after on this issue? I do not feel that it is my responsibility and if I would have know about it i would not of purchase the house for the price ask. I would have either had them fix it, or take the cost off the price of the house.
How Do I Transfer Property to My Ex-Wife?
I divorced ex wife back in 1994. Since she did not attend divorce court date, house property was awarded to me. The house deed record is still under both our names. I never went to County deed records office to change property under my name only. Presently, I remarried, and does not live at my old property home. I am living at my new wife home. I asked my ex-wife to live at my property house (one we used to share ownership) it which is paid off. She accepted and moved in with our two older sons 28 and 24 yrs old. My question is: what do I need to do to have that property under her name and if / or my sons name. I don't live there and don't want that house anymore. Do I need to notify IRS of such change of ownership, is IRS will go after for tax purposes, is this change of ownership will be expensive? Please need your advise and expertise on this matter. Thanks you.
