Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
Are there risks in accepting a quitclaim deed?
I recently inherited a property from my aunt and I am considering transferring ownership to my cousin using a quitclaim deed. I have heard that there are some risks associated with this type of deed, and I wanted to make sure that I understand all of the potential implications before making a decision. I am looking for advice on how to proceed in a way that is most beneficial for all parties involved.
Bobby H.
There are generally three broad categories of deeds mostly used to convey property in Georgia, depending on certain warranties, or the lack thereof, contained therein. These categorizes include warranty deeds, limited warranty deeds, and quitclaim deeds. In a warranty or general warranty deed, the grantor generally warrants title, and promises to defend the grantee against third party title claims that either arose, or which are based on events occuring at anytime during the grantor's ownership of the property OR the ownership of any of the grantor's predecessors in title. In a limited warranty deed, a grantor generally warrants and promises to defend the grantee against title claims which arose, or which are based on events occuring during the grantor's ownership only. A quitclaim deed generally contains no warranties. Therefore, the grantee or transferee of a quitclaim deed has little to no recourse against the grantor if there is an issue with the title to the property based on the deed alone. Quitclaim deeds are often used when there is little or no money being exchanged for the property such as when there is a transfer of family property, between family members or where property is gifted.

Purchase and Sale Agreement
Florida
Purchase and sale agreement and inspections?
I am in the process of buying a home, and I recently received a Purchase and Sale Agreement from the seller. I'm concerned about the inspection contingency in the agreement, because I'm not sure if it protects me as a buyer if there are any issues with the home. I want to make sure my interests are fully protected in the agreement, so I'm looking for legal advice on how to properly interpret and negotiate the inspection contingency.
Linda W.
It is recommended that you seek the assistance of an attorney before signing any contract. In addition, it is recommended that you sign an as-is contract, because the inspection period provides you the opportunity to terminate the contract for any reason, if you are not satisfied with the results of the inspection. But you must terminate within a timely period as set forth in the contract.

Warranty Deed
Texas
what do I need to do transfer the property on mine and my husband 's name I have two of my kids on it?
my house is on my name including my husband and two of my kids
Craig C.
Unfortunately, this requires the standard lawyer answer of "it depends." However, at face value it appears you would need to file a general warranty deed conveying the property from whoever you want "OFF" of the deed to you.

HVAC Contract
New York
Can I terminate an HVAC contract if the contractor fails to complete the agreed-upon work within the specified timeframe?
I hired a contractor to install a new HVAC system in my home, and we signed a contract that stated the work would be completed within four weeks. However, it has been three months, and the contractor has not finished the installation. Despite numerous promises and excuses, there has been no progress made, and I am growing increasingly frustrated. Can I terminate this HVAC contract due to the contractor's failure to meet the agreed-upon timeframe?
Arthur S.
Simple answer...yes. The failure of the contractor to timely complete performance through no fault of the homeowner can be the basis for termination of the contract. Of course, the terms of the contract will control on this subject. It is customary for contracts to require that a written notice be provided by the homeowner to the contractor setting forth, in reasonable detail, the nature and scope of the default by the contractor and requiring that the default be cured within a state time period following delivery of the notice...failing which, the homeowner will be entitled to terminate the contract and, in certain instances, seek recovery of damages by reason of such default..

You will need an attorney to advise you, as such, you will need to post your project on the website Here are the steps you need to take to accomplish this 1. Post the job you need to get accomplished – for example “ I am looking for a California attorney to assist me in the sale of my property and to help me get the county to approve the sale -------------“ 2. Once posted, attorneys on the website that are interested and qualified will respond to your posting 3. Choose an attorney/s based upon their qualifications and cover letter to have a quick call so that you can decide who you would like to hire. 4.
