Either hire an AR attorney to sue for an injunction, or check into bidding at the sale (without telling anyone of the contents, or forget about it. Apparently you have been wasting your time complaining to the lessor.
Home grown up and really not livable, brand new truck still on drive. Is truck up for sale with property and who do I talk to about purchasing it all

What does the State have to do with it? Search the title and start asking around about who his heirs and next of kin is. They are the owners at his death unless he had a probated Will.
I live in arkansas, and my apartment complex got my lease end date wrong on the lease, but almost correct on my welcome letter. I was told that since no 7 month lease choice was available, to just choose the 8 month lease and they would fix it on their end. Now they are telling me that they can... View More

An Arkansas attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. It may have remained open because it was overlooked in the posted categories - you could repost and add "Landlord-Tenant" as a category for better chances of a response. Good luck
With me. I currently live in the home.

Hire an AR attorney to search the title and determine heirship. Then get an Affidavit of Heirship drafted and recorded as the heirs' source of title.

By being an heir at law of the decedent landowner at his death.
My 2 brothers and I jointly own our family farm. It was deeded to us by our parents undivided. I and one brother each own 37.5%, the other brother owns 25%. Can one owner force a sale instead of having it divided? Would a judge typically force a sale over division?
answered on May 23, 2023
If you sue for Partition, a Partition in Kind is possible to give each owner certain parts of the tract. If it cannot be fairly physically divided, then a Partition Sale will be ordered to divide the Sale Proceeds. Consult with an AR attorney.
I was required to grant a right of way dedication for a project at the entrance of my land to the county. I have canceled the project. I was required to sign a quitclaim deed to get the project approved. I have canceled the project and plan to sell. The right of away is not needed anymore. It... View More

Assuming it was recorded (which would have been required to obtain the approval), you cannot cancel a conveyance and you will need the county to convey it back to you.

I am answering this question from my New York Perspective.
Dad passed in 2015. Girlfriend has contacted me this week wanting me to sign a quitclaim deed so she can sell this property. Do I have any rights to my Dad's portion of this property? Would the deed say heirs on it.? Right now the county tax accessors has it listed with her name- and his hame... View More

Hire a competent AR attorney to at least read the Deed. It is very possible that you own an one/half undivided interest as a tenant in common. But someone needs to determine the title. If you are one of the two owners, then agree to the sale and do not sign a Deed until you are paid half the... View More
I live in Michigan.
In Arkansas, my brother and I inherited land from my deceased father. Using a lawyer, he had purchased land from relatives using quit claim deeds.
However, to save money, he used a Bill of Sale to purchase land from one relative. This relative is still... View More

Bill of Sale is not a conveyance. Suing for Specific Performance will cost some money. Call AR attorneys who handle property litigation. A Partition suit is probably your best option, and hopefully the lawyers can get paid from sale proceeds.

Is this Joint Tendency? Property transfer to me? What do I do to remove his name. I have a Certified Death Certificate

Sounds like a Tenancy In Common where both owned one/half Undivided Interests, if no survivorship condition is shown. But an examination of the Deed and a Title Search are necessary. It sounds like his Heirs took his interest.
Other spouse

It sounds like only one spouse is the titled owner, who can convey. An immediate divorce action might bring all property of the Parties into play, especially with a possible Injunction requested. Hire an AR attorney now.

Hire a competent AR attorney to search the Title and determine ownership.
I'm basically wondering if I'll be able to keep my license active and sell real estate part time while working as an assessor and eventually an appraiser for Pulaski County or not.

Contact your State Regulatory Agency which licenses real estate agents and ask them.
Hi my grandmother passed away back in 1993. My father her eldest son moved in her home and lived there for 24-25 yrs until his death in 2014.

You will need to hire an attorney to determine Heirship as the Heirs own the land a Tenants In Common. Then an Affidavit of Heirship will need to be recorded. And someone still needs to pay taxes.
There is no home or house property they are staying in a travel trailer . Do i have to do a eviction on them ?
answered on Feb 14, 2022
Immediately hire a competent AR lawyer to prosecute a possessory/eviction action. Hopefully the occupants will not claim Adverse Possession or that the SOL has run.
answered on Nov 11, 2021
It probably means that you do not own the home. It is owned by the estate of someone who has passed and either his or her will requires the house to be sold or it needs to be sold to pay his or her debts. A local probate attorney can help you with this.
Easement is to the property behind us. The property is primarily woods and pasture area not used. The people who own that land do not use the easement properly and go through out property as an "easier" route. We would like to terminate the easement but are unsure if that's possible.
answered on Sep 24, 2021
Hire a competent AR attorney for specific advice after searching both titles. Easement descriptions do not have to amount to much, not like the property's legal description.
Termination is possible in many ways, but it sounds like they will ignore your efforts and probably will sue you.

I doubt you have a portion of 30 acres owned with other tenants in common. Hire a competent AR attorney to search the title to determine what exactly you own. Then file an action for Partition if the others will not agree to sell or buy you out.
The husband did not have a will. And it never went through probate. But she never took his name off of the house.

More than likely the wife took the fee as the surviving tenant by the entirety, which would mean her heirs own it as tenants in common. But it all depends on what estate was created when they purchased it. Hire a competent AR attorney to search the title.
Also, if I have an ingress egress easement across their property line that runs the same length and width of the one on my property, but my easement is encroached on the entire length of the easement is that grounds to have the easement removed?
answered on Aug 16, 2021
Yes. No. You need to talk to a competent attorney. Searching both Titles may help as the Easements need to be closely examined as they may not be enforceable.
