Can son legally stop father from selling family inheritance land to pay for bad stock deals and church annex?

Posted on October 22, 2011 by admin| 7 Comments

My partner’s father is an overzealous church deacon. His father lost a considerable amount of money at stocks, built an enormous, fund-draining home, and claims he now needs the land sale money to keep the house but he consistantly throws away $400+ a week to a small country church in the form of a “donation”. The son is furious at his father for secretively selling off portions of the family land to pay for trying to live too big and appear to be the “big man” in the county at church. The land has been in their family for several generations, and has always been kept intact, until recently. It is also suspected the father is trying to sell off land to make a very large donation for a proposed annex for the church. The son cares deeply for the land, and sees the land as a part of the family legacy, not as a commodity to dice and sell. Can the son do anything legally to prevent the further squandering of the inheritence?

Is it fraud if someone signs a real estate sales document as a single person when they are actually married?

Posted on September 28, 2011 by admin| 8 Comments

The specific circumstances are: a wife sold her house to her husband for a small amount of money, but they both signed the sales paperwork as single people and she signed her maiden name. Is this fraud and who would this be reported to if so?
They were legally married at the time, verified by copy of their marriage certificate and license. Also, she had legally changed her name prior to the sale of the house.
This took place in Florida.
The house was sold by the wife to the husband for $10.00. Yes, thats ten dollars.
Just FYI, I’m not the ex-husband… just a curious third party that heard about the situation, wondered if it was legal, and don’t know anyone that could answer the question.

how do you go about leasing a business that is already established.?

Posted on September 19, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

the business is a local store/gas station and the owner wants to retire out. He is willing to lease or sale. since we have never owned a store before we wanted to lease for acouple of yrs then consider buying .what we dont understand is the stock that is in the store now do we buy it out or does it come as part of the lease and how do we 4 of us quit our jobs immediately and have a income. and also does he get a profit from the stores sales or is this all to be our profit once the store is leased?We wanted to save extra monthly to come up with the collaterl to buy this being that it is a large amount of money… is there a lease to own or could the owner do his own financing without us going to the bank We do own homes but do not want to use them as collateral. any lease information would be greatly appreciated.

Advice for a life time renter wanting to buy a house, any help?

Posted on July 5, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

My Dad and I live together. He is recently widowed, as I lost my mother last year. We want to do what my mom’s dream was, and that’s to own a home. Here’s the situation though, we are pretty clueless about what to do to get the best deal, and if we’ll be able to get a house in the first place. The reason why we are nervous is because my Dad is 52(i’m 21) and just from my assumptions, most mortgage companies will probably turn us down for a 30 year loan due to my Dad’s age, and I don’t think we could afford 15 years. We have a significant amount of money to put down, but the problem is, we don’t make that much in overall annual income. My Dad alone brings in about $30,000 and I’m looking/hoping to bring in about 5,000-10,000 this year. Any advice or help for us first time buyers, would be highly appreciated.
