FAQ

How likely is it for me to win a lawsuit where a seller wants to back out of a signed commercial real estate offer/contract?
Obligatory legalese: I’m not a lawyer and you should consult one for legal advice.Generally speaking, if you have performed as specified in the contract, including putting in deposit, removing any applicable contingencies, and informing seller of your intent to close, then I think you have a pretty good case.However, in practical terms, it’s not clear if you should go to court. Lawyers are expensive and, depending on the contract and the state you’re in, you may not be able to get back your expenses, even if you win. And any case, even a winning one, is going to take a long time to complete, is it really worth your time and aggravation?

How difficult and or realistic is it to start a real estate law practice straight out of law school?
A start-up law practice is a small business like any other and faces the same challenges of identifying ones market, competitors, etc.. A good way to determine the feasibility of starting a law practice straight out of school is to write a comprehensive business plan and a companion marketing plan. It will force you to be brutally honest and confront your limitations in every facet of business including ones you weren't aware of, and if you can struggle through the exercise and emerge with a robust plan, you'll be well on your way to take on the challenge. Also do not hesitate to consult with business professionals and allow them to poke as many holes as they can in your plan, better to fail on paper than in real life. There are many online resources available as well as software packages to help you develop a plan. I recommend taking as much time as you need to embellish your ideas and way forward.

How can I get out of a real estate contract when I priced the property too low and really feel it is a mistake to sell it?
Number one thing is to step back and think objectively talking to your listing agent. Hopefully, you did use an experienced Realtor to help you set the price. If a home is priced correctly, you should expect to have interest and offers early. You may have to wait a while before you get another similar offer. When a home first goes on the market, you get both the people who’ve been looking for possibly weeks or more plus new buyers just starting.If you truly want to get out of the contract talk to a real estate attorney. As a seller contracts really don’t give you much out unless a buyer defaults. If this your homesteaded home, you may be able to avoid being forced to sell but could be held liable for buyers costs and possibly damages. Your home may even be held up from being sold to someone else. If you have a listing agreement, you may be responsible for commissions.Think carefully, then talk to an attorney.
Does the state of Missouri have a law that allows people to get out of a window replacement contract before any work has been done or money paid?
I’m not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. But read the contract you signed, does it say anything about it? Like if you cancel you lose deposit or have to pay a %? If you didn’t sign anything and it was all verbally communicated, then I believe all you have is an agreement. It’s not a contract until they either start the work, or you pay them any amount as a deposit to start. Once something of value has changed hands, either service or money. The agreement is sealed and binding.Missouri law really has nothing to do with it. Missouri law is between you and the corporation of Missouri. A deal between you and a non govt entity is private, and the laws of the deal are dictated in the contract you signed or agreed to.If the window you are referring too had to be custom made to fit your window. And the other party has already custom made that window for your window replacement. Then you probably are going to have to pay for it. They may not have come to your house yet, but they started work on the agreement that you wanted it. Not really fair for them to get stuck with a window that you ordered and they custom built, then you change your mind. Think if you were the other party? Would you want to be paid in that situation or would be be perfectly fine custom making a window for someone and eating the cost, because you can’t just sell it to someone else.Not legal advice.
In regards to property and real estate law, what is the difference between a contract and a covenant?
A contract is an agreement between two or more parties which is supported by consideration, mutual assent and has no contractual defenses to formation.A real covenant is a promise that relates to the ownership or usage of land. Although covenants, in general, fall within the province of contract law, it is important to discuss various aspects of the law regarding real covenants within the context of property law.Although covenants are similar to easements in that in both cases, the use of land is being restricted or enhanced by an obligation owed by the property owner to another party, real covenants differ from easements in that they are not considered ownership interests in land. Real covenants are promises. They can not be acquired by implication, necessity, prior use or prescription. They are agreements and thus can only be created by promises. Once in existence though, there is little practical difference between a negative easement and a real covenant.The key element of a real covenant that distinguishes it from an ordinary promise is that a real covenant can sometimes be enforced against successive owners of the property. If a covenant can be enforced against successive owners, it is said to “run with the land.” This means that, like an easement, the covenant can remain effective even if the land is transferred to a third party. Of course, this distinguishes real covenants from ordinary contracts, as all ordinary contracts are enforceable only by and against people who are parties to the contract or intended beneficiaries.THIS COMMUNICATION CREATES NO ATTORNEY CLIENT PRIVILEGE OR RELATIONSHIP BUT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY!!!!!!!Shalom aleichem lchaim.
