Resolved Question: Real estate Legal advice?
I agreed on a purchase price for a home for $500,000.00. I had a home for sale for the same price. I was wanting to wait to move into the new home after I sold my house. The owner was adamant I moved into the new home in April 1, 2008. We agreed on a price of $10,000.00 a month which I started paying in December of 2007, and have every month since. So I have paid $100,000.00. I went to his lawyers office which is in the same office as my lawyer. I asked my lawyer if it was ok to sign the Buy Sell agreement. He said it was a basic agreement. I knew I had to get financing by 12/15/08, or I would lose my money paid toward the purchase of the new house minus some Interest. The seller moved out of his house and left everything but their personal photos. The seller is regarded as a multimillionaire. I thought it odd he and his wife would move out and leave everything and move into a 14′x60′ mobil home! The agreement listed in the Buy Sell agreement the purchase price of the furniture for $20,000.00. He was insistent we move into his home on April 1, 2008. We did. A few months later the sheriffs office started attempting to deliver papers to the Seller. They left a set of papers with my wife for us to deliver to the Seller. I couldn’t help but read this suit. It was for the sum of almost $500,000.00 for a personal guarantee they made on a loan with a major US bank. I called my lawyer, he told me to return the papers to the sherriffs office. The next day, the sherrifs office came back to my home to drop off more papers. I returned the papers to the sherrif. The officer replied they had several more to serve to the Sellor and his wife. I hired a lawyer to investigate this situation. It was found Sellor was being sued for about $1,000,000.00. The house I am paying $10,000.00 a month on also had up to a $50,000,000.00 attachment for a real estate deal he was doing on condo construction. He denied he was being served papers. He said they were someone elses. I saw the paper. They were his!
Since, Sellors sister told me Sellors condos have a huge note on them, and the loan has been called. Sellors sister was concerned because her father built a new home and the same Sellor of my home, still owns the land fathers house is built on. Sister went to court house and said all of the property my new house, and her fathers house is on is tied up with the called note. I also found out he has a Line of Credit of $350,000.00 tied up in my home also. Sister found out Sellor has been taking $10,000.00 out of fathers account, as he has POA.
Sellor has started building a new home, but construction has stopped with bricks 4′ high. So I knew something was wrong with his finances.
He has been urging, even calling banks and setting up appointments for me to go and try to get financing on the home Sellor owns. I cant get financing on this home, because I havn’t been able to sell my house.
I am in the process of moving out, as Sellor has put everything he has up for sale. Sellor called me and told me I can move out, but this house is mine. I would have to keep making the $10,000.00 payments however until I sell Sellors house. I am out $100,000.00.
My lawyer and I met today, and he said the Buy Sell contract I signed didn’t have the usual terms in it to give me an out if I couldn’t get financing. The lawyer didn’t see this and didn’t advise me it needed to be in the contract before I signed it. Sellor is saying he will sue me for Specific Performance.
I have moved out the furniture from Sellors house, as the 1st two payments went to purchase of the furniture.
I also had a banker who was wanting to finance Sellor’s house for me, but it was found the 20′ of lake front was retained by Sellor. My banker informed me he couldn’t finance the property because the property had to go to the lakes edge.Seller told me I had a nice boat landing on the water. He didn’t say I could use it, that it was his!
What are my options if any except pay for the Sellors house? My lawyer told me I can’t list the home because I don’t own it.
Do I have any other options? Any Recommendations?
Thank you all very much.

Resolved Question: Public association lying about my property to prevent sale? What would you do?
I am the owner/developer of a small development on a lake in Minnesota. We have a number of lots on a large lake. There is a lake association that has received some public money as well as grants. I learned that an elected member of the assoc. has spoken to at least two potential buyers stating the water in front of my lots is polluted. These are lies. I believe two individuals that were interested, contacted this individual with with questions about the lake and was told to stay away from my property. She has admitted to speaking to more than one person, but would not say what was said.

My questions: Do I have right to access the assoc’s correspondence to find out if these lies were indeed made by an elected member of this association? I suspect the correspondence was via email.

What expectations/requirements do they have in terms of saving such correspondence? Would I be able to access this without an attorney or do I need an attorney to request this information?
The individual with the association fought the development from the start because she feels it’s being overdeveloped. It is just under 5,000 acres, so by no means a small lake.
$200K x 18 lots so yes, very valuable. I know an attorney will see $$$ and want to take the case based on seeing $$ regardless of how good of case they think it is. Plus I have 5 that have yet to be plotted out. I think they’ve cost me at least two sales as two people who were very interested just vanished and purchased elsewhere. One had inquired about the lake and was going to talk to the lake association.

Having a basement that is functional and useful not only adds value to your home but living space too. It is the perfect place to relax on weekends with friends. You can also have your children use a corner as play pen.

There are so many ways to use your basement. Practically everything you can think of. But before all the convenience and comfort take place, it is important to put some investment on your basement wall system. By investment, it means both time and money.

To have a safe and secure basement wall system, here are some items that you must know and ensure that they are present in a well prepared and constructed basement:

1. The External Insulation – You will have to do a lot of digging. This is because the soil outside of your house is in contact to your basement walls. You will have to insulate that surface area where your wall is exposed to the damp earth. Check some utilities that may be placed in these areas. These are things like gas, hydro, telephone, water, sewage. Ensure their safety and maintenance. Insulating your exterior walls prevents heat loss in your basement. All this can be overwhelming if you?re new to this business. You may want to consult or hire a professional to do the external basement wall system for you. Or you may do it yourself. But just be sure to do it right. Otherwise, you might have to dig extensively again in the future.

2. Internal Insulation. The interior walls must also be insulated. This is because air leaks in very easily. The air is cold outside. You have no control over that. But you do have control over preventing air flow to come in. A good basement wall system for internal insulation does that. Usually, this type uses fiberglass materials layered in your walls. Some would use foam type or plastic fixtures. This may cost you but it?s a worthy investment. You don?t want to have a cold basement room, do you?

3. Waterproofing – Your basement must be free from molds, mildew, bacteria and all other fungus that will start spreading in. It will make your basement smell bad. And since these molds are not easy to find, you?ll have a hard time figuring out where it?s coming from. When this happens, nobody wants to stay in your basement anymore. So this is basement waterproofing comes in. Some basements have rubber plastic adhesive solutions layered in joints and walls to prevent moisture to set in. You may also want to check other basement wall system options in waterproofing. Just make sure they?re safe.

You may have the best basement design. It?s very cozy, well lit and probably the most livable place in your home. But if you a poor basement wall system, chances are you won?t be enjoying its benefits for long.

Your basement should be free from moisture and dampness in order for it to be functional and efficient. These things cause bad smell, cold room temperature, and not to mention damage to your foundation walls. If this happens, you will spend some time each year doing repairs. Not only that, it will cost you and eventually spend more.

As a new homeowner, there are certain things you need to get completed in order to ensure you are paying the correct amount of property taxes. If they are unaware of the need to take these steps, they might end up paying more on their property taxes than required. In order to get your taxes set straight make certain to follow these steps.

Getting a Tax Certificate

Before you even purchase a new home, you should work with your mortgage company and obtain a tax certificate for the home. Ensure to get a certificate from all jurisdictions that tax the property.

This certificate will prove if there are any delinquent taxes owed on the property. If there are any delinquent taxes, you won’t be able to get a clear property title. Therefore, you will need to work out something with the current homeowner in order to get these taxes paid or you will either need to pay these taxes. In some cases, you may be accountable for paying the taxes but you can get the price of the house reduced according to the amount of the taxes owed. In this way, the previous owner still pays the expense of the taxes.

Arrange for Escrow Billing

Various property owners select to have the mortgage company pay for their property taxes from an escrow account. Make certain the taxing unit sends the original tax bills to the mortgage company if you decide to set up an escrow account. This way, they will receive the bill in a timely manner and your taxes will get paid. Requesting a receipt from the mortgage company that shows that the taxes were paid on time is a good idea.

Apply for Exemptions

You have to actually apply for the exemptions for which you are eligible. And you need to remember this. Hence, make sure that you apply to the appraisal district that is responsible for appraising your home. Be certain to file an exemption with each district if more than one appraisal district values your home.

Pay On Time and In Full

Make certain to pay your property taxes in full and to pay them on time. Else, you will have to pay a 50% delinquent fee as a penalty. In addition, you will have to pay interest on the amount of money you owe. If you aren’t using an escrow service with your mortgage company, you should receive a bill in April or May. So, if you don’t receive one, contact the district and request the bill be sent to you.

There is simply nothing more important than the home, remember, it’s where the heart is. What people consider a home is something a lot more than just where they live and how it looks, it’s a certain state of mind that brings a person peace of mind. Whether it’s a trailer or a mansion, there is always that feel that brings a person inner solace in the fact that they are where they belong, even in the case of corporate housing, where it may be something temporary.

What is Corporate Housing, and why is it better?

Corporate housing is a term used to describe where a company would rent furnished apartments or homes to a patron, an alternative to being in an extended stay hotel room. That particular alternative is something that is clearly better, as hotel rooms; do not give off a feeling of home. The hotel room can be something that is one of the nicest in the world, but it can never beat the feeling that you are where you should be.

The hotel is something isn’t something that is designed to be really lived in, as everything can be quite drab and feel as if it is just a box. In corporate housing, it brings the feeling of home when you’re not exactly home. Corporate housing floor plans generally dwarf those of extended stays, as well.

How does it work?

Corporate housing is something quite simple, actually. By contacting an agency prior to a business trip or something of the sort, a person would then get floor plans of where they may have them available. After talking about a few things such as duration of the stay and how the payment will be handled. The issue of payment in corporate housing is usually handled on a month to month basis, similar to an apartment. The bill can be sent to the employer, the person staying, or the insurance company.

Many corporate housing companies are pretty streamlined, and are even willing to turn off the utilities in the room if the person does not get around to it. They work similar to a hotel in this way, yet they are generally not as invasive as a hotel can be at times. Many corporate housing solutions do not generally have the housekeepers that enter the room to clean, as most of this is done between occupants. In the case of corporate housing, the company is usually willing to do a lot of the work for the person, as the person on the business trip would rather be concerned with the business aspect.

Corporate housing is something that is quite wonderful, especially considering the alternative of a extended stay. Touting bigger floor plans and a more personalized feel, it makes it something of a no-brainer. The operation is something that isn’t particularly too much different than that of a hotel, operating in big cities and providing the services that a person would need to have a successful business trip.

Billboards, news print advertisements, billboards, and television and radio commercials are the most common forms of marketing that Realtors turn to when it comes to their overall marketing strategy. However, in this day and age it is dire that creative marketing for Realtors is turned to in order to produce the results that a real estate agent or company desires to have.

However, there are numerous marketing strategies that Realtors can consider that are far more effective than those listed above. In fact, Internet Marketing for Realtors is one of the most effective and proven methods of marketing for Realtors. In fact, according to recent polls conducted amongst Realtors, they make more sales from online marketing than all types of physical marketing combined.

The first thing that should be consider when it concerns marketing for Realtors, is creating a dynamic web-presence. A website is a must if you are a Realtor. Your website should be user friendly and she would easy enough for a teenager to navigate.

Many real estate companies will simply list the addresses of properties that they have for rent or sale on their website. This then requires home searchers to actually leave their homes in order to check out the properties. Proper Internet Marketing should allow these searchers to find and see everything they need on your website. Your website should allow them to take virtual tours with photos and videos.

Numerous Realtors have discovered that they increase their sales and exposure by simply turning to a major video outlet and community such as YouTube or Viddler in order to place video tours of all the properties that they list. They can then embed these videos on their website, or these properties can be browsed by regular users of YouTube.

The use of simple flyers with property listings and general real estate information have been proven to be more effective than simple newspaper ads and text property listings. In fact, a Realtor is 56% more likely to make a sale from flyer circulation than from simple newspaper advertisements. However, many Realtors feel that they are “above” this type of marketing.

There is no denying that creativity in marketing is by and far the best method of marketing. The more creative you get the better results that you will produce. The public has become so used to general advertising ploys that you will have to seriously begin thinking outside of the box in order to produce the results that you desire.
