Legal Answers
229 Questions Answered
- Q. Buyer for my home dropped out and won't release the earnest money
- A: Your question says you are in WVA. If this is a Maryland property, with the standard MAR contracts, you have a direct route to resolution via mandatory mediation followed by a lawsuit for any decrease in price, plus your extra carrying charges. But only a lawyer who reviews your documents and circumstances can advise you on the next step.
- Q. Do you all prepare legal deeds? I want to assume the loan to my late father's home and need a drafted deed
- A: Yes. But you describe two very different things. Are you purchasing the home, and the price is assumption of the mortgage? And what about your father's equity in the house? Is he gifting that to you?
- Q. In Maryland, under contract to sell, do not want to give title company my social security number. what to do?
- A: The title company needs this to establish your property tax account. Use of your SS# has become ubiquitous. There is no avoiding. What is your concern?
