Do you need a certified copy of your deed?

Certified copies of your deed are usually requested for some legal transaction such as a sale or mortgage or evidence in a court case. Entities who don't have access to the land records usually will request certified copies of land records to make certain the documents are complete.

What are your rights as a mortgage cosigner?

Co-signing a mortgage doesn't provide any rights. Co-signing creates responsibility. The co-signer is completely responsible for paying the mortgage if the primary borrower fails to pay, even if they don't have any ownership in the property covered by the mortgage. Co-signing is an agreement to take legal responsibility for someone else's debt.

assuming thatthe lien has been filed or recorded in the county clerks office...you must do the following...speak with the creditor or attorney for the creditor and request a "release of lien", "discharge of lien" or "satisfaction of lien"...you are entitled to this document under the law...request that they mail this document directly to you and NOT to the county clerk...once you have received this document, take it directly to the county clerks office and have it filed...if the county clerk is requested to do so by you, they will return this document to you after it has been processed by the clerks office, which can take several months...but once the clerk has accepted this document for filing, and posted it in the public records, then your lien is released from your property

How can you locate property by the legal description?

The "legal description" of a property is the expansive and unique description of the property that is used in legal documents such as the deed. There may be a metes and bounds description, bounded description, plat reference, plan and lot reference to a recorded survey or simply a deed reference where the more particular description can be found.

If you already have the legal description then you must have the deed with the grantee's name. You can use that information at the local assessor's office to determine the location of the property on an assessor's map.

Can a person with a life estate evict the people of whom she has deeded the property to?

NO , If the deed has been delievered, whatever that means,* recorded and is in writting, that's it. (A DEED in most states is not a deed, (something which passes tittle and is such that the taxing agency can find it) if it is not in writting. There is not so much need to even think about something not in writting which is an interest in land: like the dirt, the right to sell it all, the right to cut the trees and to dig holes in it and the right to complain about somebody's running a powerline 40 feet in the air over two inches of the border of the property...just has to be in writting),** You dont get to change your mind (rescind) you dont own anything to change your mind on. Deeds just are not rescinded like car purchases, house purchases.... There's some heavy duty federal law working on those items. * See Major Law Suit which created most of the power of the federal government since about 1930... You're not talking about incidental consumer goods you know....but real property and interests in real property. There is no grace period with valid deeds for you to change your mind. In short: Once you have decided to deliver a deed in writting creating a legal life estate in property which you own, AND it is recorded, consider it done. Just like the song: You dont own me....and you have have nothing to say. Of course, you can argue; however, it seems that you really should have thought about this first. SHAMELESS PLUG: Which is one of the reasons one really ought to talk with a lawer before copying a form from the Internet and deciding that it fits his life, and situation. * state law again; it's called jurisdiction, AND subject jurisdiction and unless the alleged action opossed is in somekind of violation of the supreme contract, the U S Constitution (in the United States of America, of course, the law of the particular state when it comes to dirt, wills and who owns the body, the state calls the shots.) ** these are called 'intersts in land' same as a legal life estate; that's what you are talking about: an interst in land for somebody's lifetime.

Those elements indicate absolute ownership.

Do all undivided interest participants have to consent to one participant building a structure on the property?

It would be best but if one decides to build anyway and it is permenantly placed, the structure would fall under the interest that one has. ie if he owns 25% interest, that's all he owns of the structure and all he will get for it when/if sold. I don't think he can use the land as collatteral either.

Does community property end at death?

No. Community property doesn't "end at death". Community property laws affect the distribution of a married decedent's estate after their death. In a community property state your surviving spouse is entitled to one-half of any property you acquired during your marriage. Each party owns a one-half interest in any property acquired during the marriage by either party no matter whose name is on the title. A married decedent can give away one half of their property to anyone they wish by their will but their spouse will receive the other half by law after their death according to the laws of community property.

Once the estate has been probated the property inherited by the surviving spouse becomes their sole property.

The following are community property states:

  • Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, Wisconsin, and Alaska (although in Alaska, there must be a written agreement between the spouses). All of the remaining states follow common law.
