Can you sign a legal document aged 16?

Yeah right if they want to get arrested ! Minors can sign tax returns at any age, the catch is, if there is a problem with the filing the parents or legal guardian will be held responsible. Other documents both state and federal sometimes require the parents and the minor's signature, but any parent who has custody of the minor can sign any document on the minor's behalf. Regardless of the situation, parents and legal guardians are ALWAYS responsible for the minor child/children until they reach the age of majority, meaning whether the minor signs or not is irrelevant. The only exception is when the issue is one of medical care.

NO. The owner of the property must sign the mortgage and all the owners must sign if there are multiple owners. All the owners must consent to the mortgage so that in the case of a default, the lender can take possession of the property by foreclosure.

When you co-sign a mortgage for property that belongs to another person you have agreed to pay the loan if the principal borrower defaults. You have no rights nor interest in the property unless your name is on the deed. You have simply volunteered to pay for property you do not own.

What is the difference between conveyance deed and sale deed?

The meaning of "sell" is to exchange something/anything for money or some other value. In the law of real property the word "convey" means to transfer the title to real property from one to another. A conveyance is the transfer of real property. == Additional Answer== In the law of real property there is a distinction between "sale" and "conveyance". A sale occurs immediately upon the signing of the seller and buyer of the contract of sale. Although the real property has now been sold, the conveyance does not take place until the closing , when the seller delivers the deed to the buyer. The term conveyance should not be intermixed with the term sale.
