FAQs

A typical sale involves a purchase agreement, a deed conveying the property, and often a disclosure statement. Depending on the transaction, escrow instructions and title-related documents may also be part of the package.

Notarization is generally required for a deed to be recorded with the county recorder. Without recording, the transfer may still be valid between the parties but offers less protection against future claims from third parties.

A freehold, such as a fee simple or life estate, represents ownership of real property. A leasehold gives the tenant the right to occupy the premises for a defined period under a lease, without conveying ownership.

Short-term verbal agreements may be recognized in some circumstances, but a written lease is far safer for both parties. A written document sets clear terms for rent, duration, and obligations, reducing the risk of disputes.

Conveyancing is the legal process of transferring ownership of real property from one party to another. It typically involves preparing and executing a deed, settling any outstanding liens, and recording the transfer with the appropriate county office.
