How to Deal With a Neighbor’s Problematic Uses of Property Next Door to You?
Video Summary
With a neighbor’s problematic uses of the property that’s next door to you? Well, that’s a real problem, but about the only solution, which is not a very good one is to contact the County or municipality where you live. And if there’s any code violations, ask the County to come out and investigate the situation and see about having the neighbor sided and hopefully correct the problem. If it is a continuing problem that rises to a nuisance, which is a legal term, you can contact an attorney who could fall on the action for nuisance and see about having the court, enjoined them from this particular use of the property. Usually a nuisance action is cost so much that it’s only use used whenever there’s commercial property involved, because of the attorney fees involved. So, if you have any questions, give me a call at (727) 847-2288.

May a Lender Perform an Interior Inspection of the Property if They Have Concerns About Property Condition?
Video Summary
May a lender perform an interior inspection of the property if they have concerns about the property condition? The answer to that is no, they can not. Unless the loan is in default, the mortgages don’t allow them to do an interior inspection due to the condition. They only have a right to, they can do a drive by, there is an exception. However, in the residential mortgages, in the event, the property is vacant. They have a right to conserve the property and scene and whenever there’s a foreclosure and the property is vacant, they send contractors out that, hang a notice on the door, that where they’ve gone and secured the property and they’ll enter the interior of the house. There’s been certain abuses of that, when it’s in foreclosure, it’s a tough situation. If they have abused that privilege, if you’re occupying the home or occupying the property, then they’re not going to be able to enter the property while you’re there. So they don’t have a right to do the interior inspection on residential property. If it’s a commercial loan there, you might have look at the terms of the mortgage, but generally if the mortgage is current, they don’t have a right to come in and inspect the interior of the unit. So, if you have any questions about this, give me a call at (727) 847-2288.

How Should I Hold Title?
How should I hold title? I’m assuming the question relates to how you should hold title to real estate. And the answer is dependent on what you’re going to be using the property for after you purchase it, if it’s going to be your home, I suggest that you hold title in your name as husband and wife. If you are married, if you’re not married and you have a significant other, then you need to take title as joint tenants with right of survivorship. If you’re single, then take title in your individual name. The reason for this, is do you have any number protections under our Florida constitution? Sensitive will be your homestead property. It’s exempt from the claims of creditors course not the mortgage cause that’s a secured creditor, but anyone that would just happen to sue you if it’s investment property, well then who are the investors and how should the investment property be titled. It may be in a LLC, some other name, if it is residential property of four families or less than, and you may want to take title just in your individual name in order to obey yourself or take advantage of the 30 year mortgages that are available, which are not available if you take title and an LLC. So a lot depends on the purpose that the property is being acquired for and its use after you acquire it. If you have any questions, give me a call at (727) 847-2288.
