Your kids pay no estate tax. Your exemption will more than cover $850,000.
I Am looking for information on putting someone on my house, and updating my will. I realize they are separate issues but would like to take care of at the same time. I am in Erie County NY
The two have nothing to do with each other. The deed and will are separate. A deed is permanent. There is no way to revoke the transfer later. However, there are structures like a trust you can use to accomplish what I think you want to accomplish.
My tenant got a order to show cause after receiving a eviction notice.Do I have to file a new Eviction notice if she was granted a extension and doesn't leave?Do I have to call the marshal to schedule a eviction or will it be automaticaly?or do I have to wait 14 days after she's scheduled to move...

The Marshal will not automatically reschedule an eviction. The landlord or his/her attorney must take the initiative. Whether you have to serve a new notice depends on the exact language of the court order disposing of the OSC
It could depend on what the matter involves and what the judge chooses. Good luck

Do they have a right to withhold this information from the owners
You have a right to see books and records of financial information. But cases are public. Type it in the computer and look it up.
It could depend what the matter involves and what a judge ordered. Some timelines are set forth in the CPLR. Good luck

I'm not filing a claim. My daughter was playing with something she shouldn't have been so it was an unfortunate accident.
They could assert that their right to request such information arises in their insurance coverage or standard operating procedures. It protects their interests if a claim should arise in the future. It also has the incidental benefit of serving the injured by establishing that an accident and... Read more »
You might want to repost this under Puerto Rico, as it appears to be something that a real estate attorney who practices in that jurisdiction would be most familiar with. You'll see Puerto Rico when you click "more states," below Washington, DC, in the third column. Good luck

upon request, yes
Months of emails, in person meetings, calls and text messages
onsite inspections, letter of intent submission
I have everything I would need to prove I am the procuring cause
So you can sue. You can also get a lien on the property itself. Requires a Supreme Court action.
If I want to lease the whole vacant building to a nonprofit how can we ensure that the potential tenants won't become stabilized?
If the building is operating under a municipal contract to provide housing to the homeless, then the tenants are exempt from rent stabilization. If there is no municipal contract, however, it is subject to rent stabilization unless otherwise exempt. One of those exemptions is where a charitable... Read more »

since I have not reviewed you actual lease, I cannot provide an answer for your specific situation. Generally, roommates are jointly and severally liable for the full amount of rent to their landlord and a roommate that leaves before the expiration of a lease remains liable to the liable to the...

She has a right to half the house, but you are entitled to credits for what you paid. If you cannot get her to sign a deed to you for her half, you have to bring a partition case.

A power of attorney may allow a person to sell real estate why the person is alive. If someone promises to split a house once they die that falls under probate and a power of attorney has no effect.
If the power of attorney specifically stated proceeds were to be split there may be grounds... Read more »

She handled all the bills (with his money from their joint bank account) but told him before everything... Read more »
Your post makes ownership of the house unclear. If the house was owned by the husband alone, and there was no pending divorce, he can sell it.
We signed contracts for a home in the middle of September (tentative closing date was October 15th). Had our mortgage commitment by mid October. As we’re waiting on a closing date, seller notifies us that their underground tank has a leak, town is involved, and they’re correcting the issue. We... Read more »
I disagree with your lawyer. Time of the essence letter is required as a predicate to anything else. Then, you can bring a specific performance action and charge them with the fees.
It may not be relevant if it was an obvious error. A corrected document has to be filed. It is done electronically. Who are you to the deal?
My ex-girlfriend is an “occupant” on my apartment lease (via a lease rider). She refuses to move out now that we have broken up. Can I give her a written notice period to get her to move out after a certain number of days? If not, is there another process to get her out of the apartment?
You need to get a court order to evict her. Or, let your landlord do it.
During a title search on a property a permanent Town sewer utility easement was recovered. In the document it says «...grant and release PERMANENT EASEMENT TEN (20) feet in width across the lands..”
Making it confusing what is the width 10 or 20 feet?
Is it necessary to correct... Read more »
Greetings. This appears to be a scrivener's error. You will need an attorney to reform the document. The attorney will file an action in court asking the court to determine whether 10 or 20 feet was intended by the parties that created the easement. The Town will be joined as a party to the...
