Does the owner of the property have to tell you if there is a utility easement on the property before you buy it if it runs the length of the back of the house and property?
It depends on the transaction. In most normal transactions the standard contract used by most Realtors will say something about clear title, a title commitment from the title company and other factors. If the buyer did not expect a clear title then it could be argued they received what they expected. The buyer should review the details of the title before signing the final documents to complete the sale. Any title insurance policy will show all easements and exceptions to a clear title. Full disclosure is best and expected but the fine details will really be based on the agreement signed by the buyer and the seller.

The owner of a house granted a power of attorney but died one month before the sale. The attorney in fact went ahead with the closing not disclosing the death. What happens now?
The POA was extinguished the moment the principal died whether or not the attorney in fact disclosed the death. Therefore he/she could not give a valid deed so the grantee did not take title to the property. The property is actually in the decedent's estate at this time.The legal expenses to clear the title will be costly. The decedent's estate must be probated. Future title examinations will reveal that the owner was deceased at the time of the sale. The AIF has committed fraud and theft of the proceeds of the sale. Those are serious criminal charges and you need to bring this situation to the attention of the "purchaser" of the property and the authorities or you may be considered an accomplice.The POA was extinguished the moment the principal died whether or not the attorney in fact disclosed the death.

Bargain and Sale Deed?
Get StartedA Bargain and Sale Deed is a type of real property (i.e. land or a building like a house or apartment) deed where the grantor or owner of the property transfers (grants) their portion of interest in the property in which the grantor has title. A Bargain and Sale Deed is commonly used when a property is transferred between parties unfamiliar to each other as it provides certain safeguards for the Grantee or buyer. A Bargain and Sale Deed can be drafted to provide a guarantee to the buyer that the seller owns the property free and clear of any debt (unless the debt is disclosed in the deed). This type of deed can also be drafted without such a guarantee in the event the Grantor has disclosed existing indebtedness to the Grantee.**If the Grantor desires to provide a guarantee against problems with the title regardless of when or under whose ownership they occurred, a Warranty Deed is more appropriate. If the Grantor only wishes to guarantee against problems with the title to the property through the time the Grantor owned the property a Special Warranty Deed is needed. If the Grantor does not desire to provide any guarantees regarding title or the seller's authority to sell the property free and clear of debt, then a Quit Claim Deed is best.
