According to New Hampshire law RSA 529:26, the one-year redemption period for a foreclosed property starts on the day of the foreclosure auction sale, not when the new deed is made.
Specifically, RSA 529:26 states:

answered on Apr 30, 2024
A trustee and a beneficiary are not the same thing. You can be both the trustee and a beneficiary or there can be one or multiple beneficiaries and this may not include the trustee. A trustee is responsible for managing the trust. A beneficiary is the person(s) who will receive the assets of the... View More

I notice that they added a name to my policy that was not associated with my home to give me that rate but I never asked for that or approved that the company did it on their own. When I... View More

A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. However, any attorney is likely to ask questions about the addition of the person, their capacity, why they were added, etc. A New Hampshire attorney could advise more meaningfully with the benefit of knowing...

No, you will have to sue them first, get a judgment, then record the judgment as a lien.

Your only hope is to sue her for a constructive/resulting trust, and partition sale thereafter. Hire a competent NH attorney as it will be difficult. A notice lis pendens will need to be filed at suit initiation.

In New Hampshire, when it comes to residential mortgage loans, lenders are generally obligated to provide payoff statements to borrowers in a timely manner. Under the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA), upon receipt of a written request from the borrower, the servicer is usually... View More
2 years ago I purchased a home with the partner I’d been with for 8 years, both our names were put on the deed and mortgage (though I put in more than double the money he did and it was MY great credit that got us it).

Unless it is his homestead, this sounds like a job for a suit to partition by sale. Co-owners of real property (called co-tenants in common in law) can petition the court at any time to partition the property by sale. The court will balance the equities based upon each party's contributions... View More

You do not have to ever record a Deed. But if you do not, then the Deed is only controlling between the Parties in the Deed, with no notice to the world of title. Without recording, others can claim title instead of the actual owner.
is it better to ask for all names to be on the lease or use a separate contract between the 4 tenants so the one who actually signs the lease is not 100% responsible. Thanks

We bought a house four years ago. As of recent, we have discovered serious issues with the well. We called the same plumber the previous owner used. He disclosed to us that the previous owner was aware of issues with the well since 2006. Nothing was disclosed to us at closing or at all. Can we sue?
answered on Sep 30, 2022
The short answer is, maybe. The purchase agreements, disclosure documents and other related documents would need to be reviewed to determine how best to proceed. Often time, the contract will require mediation first. A real estate attorney would be able to help you review these documents and... View More

First, not all power of attorney agreement will include the authority to sell property. Often if it does, it is applicable only while the donor is alive unless there was some sort of transfer of that right. Second, whether or not the property has already been transferred or disposed of would be an... View More

Thanks for your question. In order to answer fully, I'd need to know, at a minimum, terms of the business purchase and what you want to patent. I'd also need to review the business purchase documents. If you're interested in hiring my firm for this, please just let me know. Thank you.

I would need a bit more information to thoroughly and thoughtfully answer this question. Having a lien on a property does not necessarily lead to ownership. A lienholder would need to foreclose or auction the property, if applicable, and the highest bidder would become the owner of the property.... View More

This really depends on your claim. In New Hampshire, undischarged mortgages that have been on record for more than 50 years become void unless prior to the 50 years the mortgagee or assignee state the mortgage is not discharged, and upon recording of such, the 50 years begins again. N.H. RSA... View More

This is an interesting question, but probably not one where you will find a definitive answer. In particular, if the tree is within the airspace and poses a danger, property ownership of the tree may not be the sole determining factor for who is responsible for it.

I may file bankruptcy. Is the real property in the trust considered my asset? Can it be taken away from me? (I am co-trustee and beneficiary)

The answer could go either way depending on the terms of the trust. Have an attorney who understands trusts and asset protection review this trust.
