Being declared incompetent after changing deed and life insurance beneficiary
An elderly woman whose mental state has been deteriorating for some time, added an unrelated person to her home’s deed.She also changed the beneficiary on her life insurance to the same person, 7 months ago. We believe she would not have done this if mentally stable and believe she was manipulated by the newly named beneficiary. The woman’s nephew who lives in another state, was named as her power of attorney, years ago. Due to her current mental state, she is likely to be declared incompetent. Can her nephew petition the court to reverse the changes made to her deed and life insurance? What are the chances the court will have the second name removed from the deed and reinstate the original beneficiary to the life insurance policy?

Real Estate Agreement of Sale–PA
I am a seller of a home in PA that closes this week. The Agreement of Sale (AOS) is written on the standard PA Association of Realtors form Revised 9/05. Our septic system did not pass so a new one is being installed now although even if the new one is not in by closing it will not prevent our closing the deal as the current system is functioning. Once we knew the septic needed replacement and the Buyer wanted us to deal with it we presented the Buyer with the contractually required Written Corrective Proposal to which per the AOS the Buyer had 5 days to respond to as spelled out in line 338 of AOS. He did not so my read is that since the Buyer chose Option 1 per line 333 he is bound by the provisions of line 184 which says he accepts the property and releases us per line 513. In other words by not responding he accepted our Written Corrective Proposal and is on the hook for his deposit and must close. Because the AOS is so darn confusing, should I ask for a hold harmless or general release at closing to be sure that once the new septic is in we are done with this matter or does what I just stated protect me enough?

Notice to Quit
We purchased property in order to provide housing for a friend from out of state. We are only charging her $200/mo due to her circumstances of unemployable; she receives around $600 from the State. Is not on HUD list for Dauphin County. We can no longer afford to subsidise her in addition to her manic-depressive problems, the relationship has also become a mental burden for me.
We would like to put the property up for sale 1 Jan 2005. We intend to give as much notice as possible. Will her ‘condition’ have any negative repurcussions to our wanting the property vacated? Thank you. Of course, we are 1st time Landlords – and LAST time.

Eviction notice, paying to stay, something seems wrong
I live in PA, and we are behind on rent. We recieved a ‘notice to quit’ and now a summons to the district justice. That date is 6/7/06 and we are planning to pay the rent and all dues by 6/4/06 to avoid being evicted. Our rent is $744 plus a pet fee and washer and dryer fee, for a total of $809. The papers filed by our landlord state we owe $809 plus a $50 late fee for May, $136 for court costs, and $809 for June. However, the landlord came and removed the washer and dryer today (6/1/06). My question is, how is that legal if the summons papers include the w/d fee for June? When I talked to the landlord, I was told we did not owe the fee for the w/d in June, but the court papers filed include those fees. This is all over $30-40 dollars, so it is not a big deal in that aspect, but we get a strong feeling that we are not wanted here and they are purposly making it difficult. So with that said if I have ANY legal grounds I would like to know.
