Ask a real estate pro: What happens to deal to sell our house after buyer unexpectedly died? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Q: We are selling our home and are under contract with a buyer who was getting a mortgage. Last week we were told the buyer died unexpectedly. We feel terrible for the family, but we have already put money down on our next house, which depends on this sale closing. Where does this leave us? Is the deal dead, and what happens to the deposit? — Gloria A: This is a very unfortunate situation, and everyone involved deserves sympathy. That said, it does not necessarily mean your sale is lost. Like ev
Ask a real estate pro: How do we fix title company’s issue with solar panels on home we’re selling? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Q: We are selling our home and thought we were days away from closing. Then the title company found a “UCC” filing for the solar panels we leased a few years ago, and now the buyer’s lender is refusing to move forward until it is cleared up. We had no idea this was a problem. What is going on, and how do we save our sale? — Howard A: Do not panic. This is a common problem with a well-known solution, and it rarely kills a sale outright. The title company found a public notice indicating that the
Ask a real estate pro: How do I get my money out of house I co-own with my ex? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Q: My ex and I bought a house together two years ago when we were still a couple. We are both on the deed and on the mortgage. Now we have split up and moved out, and she refuses to either sell the house or buy me out. I am still paying half the mortgage on a home I cannot live in. How do I force the issue and get my money out? — Andre A: You are not the first person to be trapped like this, and the law does offer you a way out. When two people own property together and cannot agree on what to d
Ask a real estate pro: Can landlord keep most of security deposit for ‘repainting and cleaning’? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Q: We moved out of our rental after three years, left the place clean and gave the landlord our new address. Almost a month later, he mailed us a fraction of our deposit, with the rest deducted for “repainting and cleaning.” The paint showed only normal fading, and we cleaned before we left. Can he keep our money for that, and what can we do? — Theresa A: Your security deposit remains your money, even after you hand it over to the landlord. The landlord is only holding it and may keep part or al
Ask a real estate pro: Can my mortgage company hold money from insurance check for home repair? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Q: A storm damaged our roof, and we filed a claim. The insurance company finally sent the check, but it is made out to our mortgage company and us, and now the mortgage company says it will hold the money and release it as the work gets done. We are current on our loan and just want to pay our roofer and be done with it. Can they really do this? — Renee A: Yes, they can. Although it may feel like your money is being held hostage, there is a logical reason for it. Your home is the collateral for
