bigred | My Dad died and my Mom wants to sell me her house for $1.00. How does she go about it and it be legal? |
My Mom doesn't want to bother with a realitor because she can't afford it and I can't afford to pay any more. She just wants a simple thing between her and I, but we want it to be legal in case of her death. What should we do? |

Sorry you lost your dad. You and mom must miss him a lot.
Different states have different rules. You have to make sure you comply with the rules in your state.
If she wants to bequeath the house to you or make sure you have it before she passes, the easiest way is to NOT sell it for $1.
Buy a deed -- grant deed or bargain and sale deed from a stationary store. Cost? Less than $2.
You will use language something like:
Evelyn Johnson conveys the property (legal description from your property tax records) to
Evelyn Johnson and Tammy Johnson, not as tenants in common but with rights of survivorship.
If there is a blank for consideration, just put zero or 'love and affection' I like to see that on a deed.
You will have to sign in front of a Notary or both of you just go to the county courthouse, Records Office. Sign it in front of the Records clerk and bring two pieces of picture ID.
Both are now on the title. Beware, if you get sued, you now have an asset and are at risk.
Make sure you record your Dad's Death Certificate, too.
There might be tax consequences if she passes and you sell the house. You should look to IRS.gov for that.
There is not enough information and it is too big of a topic for this forum.

get a real estate lawyer and sign the papers. the $1.00 is exchanged because the property is deeded and in order to be legally binding contract, money must be exchanged for the property.
It will be a simple closing, less the paperwork for the mortgage. |

A sale of real estate is a deed transfer. In this case it would be a deed of the property from your mother to you. You do not need a realtor at all since you are not looking for a buyer. Because your father is probably on the original deed ask a lawyer about the implications of a death of one of the parties to the original deed.
Upon your future sale of the property you may have no tax to pay because you would be elgible for the one-time exemption for capital gains on the sale of your residence. |

For the most part, everything that you have been told thus far is correct, however, one thing that I have not read yet is whether there is still a mortgage attached to the property. If this is the case, then you cannot simply sign the deed over and everything be okay. The mortgage would still be in your parent(s) name(s). Make absolutely sure that there is no morgage on the property. I would even go as far as calling a title company and asking them to pull title on the property to see if there are any other liens on the property that could possibly make a mess of things. Do your homewok on this. This is a great deal, but be sure to talk to a land title company and or go to your local county court house and pull the mortgage records and lien records on the property. Also make sure that the taxes have been paid up as well.... |

QUESTION FOR A REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY. PERIOD.
Make sure they specialize in Real Estate. You'll get eaten alive by taxes, but they may be able to help lessen the blow. They may even set it up in some kind of corporation for you to avoid them all together.
Bottom line, get off of Yahoo and get an attorney! You'll be sorry if you don't. |

write it up as a reciept, you will have a hell of an earned income tax bill if you ever sell it. |

My parents did this to me and I just sold it back to them for the same dollar. If you do not get a good answer I will call them and ask just let me know. I did not have to pay taxes or anything. Just the somethings that your mom is currently paying will now be in your name. |

I don't know the laws in your state, but in some states you can simply have her transfer the deed to your name. This way it stays in the family and no money is exchanged. Hope this helps! |

since you are the child of the owner this should be a simple "transfer of deed" - i dont even think you have to pay the dollar. most situations like this are exempt from all the paperwork when the transfer is going from parent to child. definately sit down with a real estate lawyer in your state & pay for an hour consult. while your at it hire a tax accountant that specializes in real estate to see what, if any, the tax ramifications are. you may be better off keeping it in your mothers name, adding yours as a secondary & getting a "living trust" in order. the living trust will enable you to take over the property without probate (even if she has a will you will have to go through probate) should something ever happen to her. in the meantime, the clock does not start ticking on when you started earning capital gains (that is the difference between what the home was worth when you acquired it and what it is worth at the time that you sell it). it shouldnt be too difficult to deal with, however, it ISNT as simple as "give mom a buck & she signs over the deed". there is more to it than that! the living trust will probably be harder...good luck! |
