Null and void title?

A null and void title would indicate that the deed that created it contained such serious defects that it failed to convey the fee. The problem may be as simple as the person who conveyed the property didn't own it. The deed would be null and void. However, there are dfferent laws in every state that can render a deed null and void. In some states it takes a substantial problem to nullify a deed. In some states one tenant by the entirety cannot convey their interest. If they executed a deed it would be null and void. In Massachusetts there is nothing in the law to prevent one tenant by the entirety from conveying their interest subject to the survivorship rights of the other tenant. I recently heard of a situation in Connecticut where a fiduciary inadvertantly recited warranty covenants in their deed. Fiduciaries are not permitted to give warranty deeds. Instead of extinguishing the warranty covenants by a simple operation of law- under Connecticut law the deed was considered null and void.


What is association constitution?

An association's constitution -- insofar as a real estate ownership in common association is concerned -- is also known as the '[condominium] declaration, containing covenants, conditions, restrictions and reservations'. This document is also called 'our decs', or the CC&Rs. It is the basis for the governing documents for the association, that also includes by-laws, and may also include other amendments. Governing documents define the private democracy under which the association operates, usually led by a board of directors. The decs are the most difficult to amend, modify and change, since they establish the most basic agreements among owners who purchase real estate within the association. Most decs are based on or around state 'real estate association' law, with different chapters that address co-ops, home owners associations and condominium associations. When you purchase real estate in an ownership-in-common scheme, it is important that you understand and appreciate your roles and responsibilities as an owner and voting member of this legal entity. (You can start by reading the tables of contents, and then using them as tools to reference the sections you need in order to better understand your situation.)

Are Restrictive covenants in title deeds to property enforceable?

Yes. Restrictions are enforceable and the time period during which they are enforceable depends on the type and the statute of limitations in your jurisdiction regarding restrictive covenants.In Massachusetts if you purchased land that is encumbered with restrictive covenants "that run with the land", the covenants can last for 30 years by law.Some documents that create restrictive covenants recite a termination date. You need to check the language of the instrument that created the restrictive covenants and your state statute of limitations to determine if they have expired. If they are not expired then they are indeed enforceable.Certain restrictive covenants may not be enforceable even if the term of effectiveness has not expired depending on the restriction. For example, a restriction that the property shall only be sold to members of a particular race or shall not be sold to members of a particular race. In SHELLEY V. KRAEMER , 334 U.S. 1 (1948), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that racially restricted covenants were non-enforceable. Laws such as the Fair Housing Act of 1968 additionally made such restrictions illegal to enforce.

Can a gated community restrict an owner from leasing their property?

Gated communities generally have extensive restrictive and protective covenants to protect the investments and quality of life for all the property owners and also to maintain the exclusivity of the community. Renters do not have any vested interest in those goals. Therefore, most gated communities do indeed have restrictions against leasing the properties.If you purchase a property in such a community and there is such a restriction of record, then you are legally bound by it.
