Property Law

THE BUYER OF THE HOUSE PAYS EARNEST MONEY. NO MATTER WHO'S RESPONSIBILITY IT IS FOR GETTING IT THE ONE WHO PAYS DOESN'T CHANGE NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS

The only places you could check would be at her attorney's office or at the local probate court. Some courts allow persons to file a Will for safekeeping until their death at which time the Will can be retrieved and submitted for probate.

Otherwise you need to start searching. See the related question link for more information about where to search.

Yes. Withholding mail is a FEDERAL offense and is therefore illegal in every state, including Georgia.

It depends on the nature of the easement. You need to get a copy of the easement from your county records office, and see what rights it gives the neighbor to build on the easement. Odds are, if it's a utility easement, it belongs to the utility company alone. See a real estate attorney for detailed information on your state's laws.

Yes you can, just by parking your vehicle at the end of the driveway where the strangers are unable to pull their vehicle onto your driveway. Yes, if you build a gate on the inside of your property line and clear of the public property "easement". Of course, that answer is dependant on the local regulations.

Petts Wood is in Kent for the same reason that Orpington is in Kent and Bromley is in Kent, they are all in the London Borough of Bromley in the County of Kent - these areas do not have a London post code. Has anybody out there ever written to someone at 92 Blah Blah Road, Greater London? If they had would they really expect the letter to be correctly delivered to the addressee? Come on people think!

Intangible properties are the properties which can be carried on or move on they are fix in physical state.

No.

Generally, you have no right to enter someone's dwelling unless there is some sort of invitation or unless you are law enforcement or fire department officials acting in the line of duty.

Maybe. It depends on the exact circumstances, and the laws of your particular state.

Most states in the U.S. (as well as other common-law countries, such as Canada and the UK) adhere fairly closely to the common-law rules of adverse possession, which is a doctrine allowing a squatter to take title to land if they occupy it continuously for a certain period of time.

To take title under adverse possession, several elements have to be met. They are:

1. Continuous occupation of land

2. In a manner adverse to the ownership interest of the true owner (so, if you're there with the explicit permission of the owner, you can never take title under adverse possession)

3. In a manner which is open and notorious, meaning that a reasonable owner would be put on notice that someone is occupying the land.

4. The land is used in a manner consistent with a true owner - for example, if the land is suited only for agriculture, the adverse possessor should use it for that purpose. Likewise, if the land is only suited for human use for part of the year (perhaps it's in the wilderness and inaccessible in winter), occupation only during the times it is accessible will satisfy the requirement of continuous occupation.

5. All of the above elements were continuously satisfied for a statutorily set period. This varies from state to state, and many states have different time limits depending on the circumstances, but it is generally 7 to 20 years.

Basically, adverse possession is a statute of limitations for continuous trespass - the owner of the land has to remove an adverse possessor from the land within the statutory time limit, or they run the risk of losing title to the property.

You should note that adverse possession does not apply if you have permission to be on the land, even if all the other elements are met, because, in such a case, you aren't an "adverse" possessor. However, if the owner explicitly revokes permission, but does nothing to actually eject you from the land, then you become an adverse possession, and the time period begins to run from that point forward.

You tell them the reasons that they need to leave and give them a reasonable time to move out. If they refuse to leave if it something as a result of payment issues, then you can go to the police. They can then get them evicted if you can give them a probably cause. If it is not for financial reasons or abuse of the contract or living privileges then I am not sure how you can go about that.

A writ is a legal order or command, an official mandate requiring the performance of a specific act. Examples of writs include a writ of possession, writ of execution, writ of garnishment, etc.

Presumably the writ referred to in the question would have something to do with a home or other real estate.

The only way to legally take over your parents house is by a deed, Will or through the state laws of intestacy. If your parent has died their estate must be probated.

Yes. If you LET him. Adverse possession or squatter's rights are established when and if you allow someone to live on that property without your permission. In most states, this depends on the titleholder KNOWING that the squatter is living there - so if you know someone is living on your land, tell him to vacate immediately. If he doesn't, call the police, and start creating a documented, verifiable paper trail showing that you have made reasonable attempts to evict the person or persons from your property. If you tell a person to leave and he doesn't, and you take no further action, you're helping him establish a legal right to use your property. As soon as you have information that someone is living on your property against your will, contact the authorities and tell them you want that party off your property this second. This helps establish you as the owner enforcing your right to your use of the land you own.

DO NOT FOLLOW THE ABOVE ADVICE!!!!! It is possible that adverse rights have already ripened. If that is the case, they can sue you for the above actions. It is better to get a court order and let the law decide. Adverse rights are varied depending on state, and most consider it to start on discovery or when the land owner should have discovered the adverse possession. You need a lawyer, not wiki.

It's not so much a list as it is an index or table of contents. The city outsources the service to a company that does the same thing for many other governing bodies. There is sometimes a delay in getting new items "codified" and posted. Along with the Code of Ordinances, you will find the City Charter, another interesting read, considering how business is done in defiance of this local body of law. Here's the link.

The government - in the form of the local tax appraiser - comes up with a value (i.e. appraises) property so that the government knows how much tax to assess that property. Alternatively a landowner can hire a private appraiser to give the landowner an idea of how much the property might be worth or sell for, a value which could be useful in determining how much insurance to have, or whether to refinance, or estate planning reasons, etc.

On a zero lot line property, the ownership of the fence typically depends on local laws and the specific agreements between neighboring property owners. Generally, if the fence is placed directly on the property line, both owners may share responsibility for its maintenance. However, if the fence is on one owner's property, that owner is usually responsible for its upkeep. It's advisable for neighbors to discuss and clarify ownership and maintenance responsibilities to avoid disputes.

Yes, but it will only affect the half interest of the co-owner named in the judgment.
