Deeds and Ownership

In Florida, the age to legally enter into a contract is 18. A minor may enter into an employment agreement, and collect payment once service is rendered. A person must be 21-yearsof age to purchase or consume alcohol in the state of Florida.

The deed should be recorded in the deed-book in the archives section of the hall of records or courthouse at the county seat of the county in which the property is located. A copy is usually available for a fee. jb

Title would pass according to the state laws of intestacy. Generally title passes to the surviving spouse but some states grant an interest to children. You can check the laws of your state at the related question link provided below.

ADVICE: Go see a Lawyer!!! But also, in general, it is possible to sue an individual, and in winning, you would have a judgment listed in the courthouse of your domicile, which in most states can be turned into an action to seize personal property(anything other than real estate), or go to a different court (I would guess it would have to be a forced bankruptcy by a creditor) and try to then seize a piece of real estate...I repeat, Go see a lawyer, it just might save your house. But, I'm not a lawyer, just trying to help.

It depends upon the state laws when and if the surviving spouse will be entitled to the property. The state probate and property succession laws will apply. If the married couple resided in a community property state she will only need to have the title amended once probate procedures have been completed. In other states, the surviving spouse may not be entitled to the property or may only be entitled to portion of the property, due to the fact that her name was not included in the titling of such. This will hold especially true if the property was bought by the deceased before the marriage.

Generally, no. The owner of property has the right to grant life estates. Family members or other concerned individuals can take the matter to court if they think the grantor is being unduly influenced but as part of that proceeding a guardianship should also be considered.

The quit claim deed is a valid document by utself and as such does not have to be protected by recording it in the recording offices books. This act does not reflect the intent of the grantor. The deeding over of property to another person. The recording reflects to the recorder information only not intent.

The title to the property can be cleared by recording a copy of the death certificate in the land records.

A will that transfers real property must be probated in order for title to the real estate to pass to the beneficiary legally. The beneficiary doesn't have to arrange to have a deed in their name, the probate is a public record and can be cited as the legal source of title. If the beneficiary wishes to obtain a deed in their own name that can be accomplished after the estate has been probated. It should be done by the attorney who handled the estate. The beneficiary, as the legal owner, would convey the property to a straw. The straw would convey the property back to the beneficiary and the beneficiary would become the record owner of the property in the land records. This transfer should be done under the supervision of an attorney who specializes in real estate and probate law.

yes

A deed poll is a legal document, which you can have prepared by a solicitor or legal firm.

You'll need to send the deed poll to the Passport Office, DVLA, and all other official organisations to have your ID documents and other records updated in your name.

Once you've done that, you'll be legally known by your new name (in the U.K. your legal name is established by usage).

The grantees on the most recent deed are the legal owners but the property is subject to a mortgage. The type of ownership will affect the rights of the other party.

For a discussion of the complicated issue of different names on deeds and mortgages see the related question link.

Best practices dictate that you work with you association-savvy attorney, who can review your governing documents and employ the guidelines there to verify that the board has completed all the necessary steps that must occur before filing a lien.

Then, your attorney can file a lien, of the proper form, and for the appropriate amount, that includes not only the unpaid assessments, but interest, fines, filing fees and attorney expenses.

That depends on the laws in any particular jurisdiction. Some allow private property ownership and some do not. Regardless of a belief in some inherent rights, in reality a citizen is subject to the laws of their particular country.

Robert E. Lee's. Well, it was actually his wife's house. Arlington was the estate. Lee's wife was a granddaughter of Martha Washington, by her first husband, before George. She inherited the house from her Custis ancestors. Martha was married to a Custis before George.

During the Civil War Montgomery Meigs was the Quartermaster General of the US Army. Among his responsibilities was seeing to burial of Union dead. Available cemetery space was soon used, and Meigs seized Arlington for use as a cemetery. Meig's son had been recently killed fighting the Rebels, and he might have been feeling a little extra vindictive. Meigs visited the cemetery and found burial crews interring Union soldiers in a remote corner of the estate. He flew into a rage, and ordered that dead soldiers be buried right beside the foundation of the house, so that no one could ever live in it again. I'm not sure exactly how that was supposed to keep anybody from being able to live in the house. If the bodies were placed beside the foundation and it bothered future occupants, the bodies could be moved. At any rate Lee never lived in the house again, and no one has. Eventually, after Lee was dead, the government paid his son for the property, many years later.

No word on how families of dead soldiers might have felt about the bodies of their loved ones being used as instruments of General Meig's spitefulness.

Its called the Custis-Lee House. John F. Kennedy visited it a few months before he was murdered, and remarked what a lovely place it would be to be buried, as he looked out over at the city of Washington from the veranda of the house atop its hill. Kennedy is now buried just down the hill from the house.

Most lenders require the borrower to pay for it as one of the closing costs.

Vested means you own the land unconditionally. For example, if your grandfather died and left his land to you in his will you have an equitable right to the property. To perfect (and protect) your right, his will must be probated. Once the will has been proved and allowed by the court the title to the real estate will vestin you. You would then be the legal owner.

After a persons death, the deed and a copy of the death certificate can be used to change the title if it was titled as "or". If the deed is titled as "and" it may be necessary to execute the will beofre changing the deed.

There is no prefix in the word deed.

parcel no pacel. It is an open piece of property.

No. A quitclaim deed transfers the property to a new owner permanently.

A mortgage deed is a conditional deed that transfers title to the bank only until the mortgage is paid and then the bank must release its interest.
