Relationship Break up, Property Involved
My boyfriend and I are breaking up after 4 yrs. We bought a house, on land contract, last year. He is not very stable in keeping a job. What should I do so I do not lose my investment in the property? If I leave the home, am I considered abondoning it and lose my rights to the property?
Please advise how to handle this situation. Thank you,–

Land Contract Default
We sold Florida comm. prop. on land contract to husband & wife. They were going to get divorced & Wife signed Quitclaim Deed. Husband died, no Will, did not get divorced. Wife committed suicide 8 months later, no Will. We didn’t know she had died, did not receive payments so we sent her a certified letter of default,letter was returned to us as no one picked it up for a month but they did pick up her other mail. We term. contract by default because of no response by the date specified in letter. Husband had no children, wife had 4. Contract states all convenenants & agreements in contract extend & be obligatory upon the successors,heirs, etc.; and in the event of termination of contract by default the Buyer shall & will execute a Quitclaim Deed to Seller, if failer to do so the Buyer shall & will pay to Seller all Expenses, etc. to remove the contract from record as a cloud on title to the property. Did not hear from siblings for 8 months after their mother died. No payments have been sent for 14 months and we paid the taxes too. Sent siblings Quitclaim Deed for all to sign, a wk before due back to us they call & say they want to talk about payment options. Shouldn’t these 4 siblings honor the contract & sign the QC Deed?

I would appreciate information about a Contract for deed. I am intending to sell a land and a mobile home. How much would be your fee for writting a contract? We are located in Broward county. Florida.
Thank you for your tiime.

Listing a Land Contrct
Is it legal for a Realtor in Collier County to list a property(in Sunshine MLS) that has a land contract. Who is owner of record vs the Public Records that my not rflect the Land Contract?

I am contemplating selling my home to a young lady in her twenties. I would be letting her make payments to me on the $80,000. I would like for her to be able to take the home-buyer stimulus. Can she do this if a Contract for Deed is the only instrument used? And, must this be executed by April 30, 2010. Do we both need to sign the paperwork in the presence of a notary before it is filed with the Clerk? Thank you.
