    The legal definition of a Quit Claim Deed is a deed which transfers only that interest in the real property which the grantor actually has. This means nothing to me so in layman’s terms “A quit claim deed contains no warranties and the seller doesn't have liability to the buyer for other recorded claims on the property. The purchaser takes the property subject to existing taxes, assessments, liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, rights of way and easements of record.” (uslegal.com)…

    No more must the landlord just try to relet the premises. Presently the landlord can take a gander at all the realities and circumstances and figure out if or not an offer of the property is more attractive. On the off chance that that is the situation, the landlord can basically hold the tenant subject for rent installments as it tries to offer the property, along these lines putting the weight of conveying the property on the tenant's shoulders. Then again, before simply choosing to offer the premises, a landlord ought to appropriately record the grounds whereupon it is settling on its choice in order to set up that it was a "sensible"…

    Property in the legal sense is a collection of legal rights over a “thing”. This thing is a relationship that can be described as a power relationship within “real property” concerning legal rights and interests in land. Though the legal concept of property is very much broad and covers many types of proprietary rights, which are ‘interests in land’1, this essay will focus narrowly on the leasehold estate within the concept of property as a whole. Leases, in particular, are a way to conceptualize property but this area has implications within itself that has, to an extent, redefined the landlord and tenant relationship. One ongoing implication with leases has been an issue of distinguishing between a lease and a license based upon exclusive possession, and not merely upon title (which was considered the norm).2 To argue on the grounds of the “Bruton tenancy” theory3, a person without a proprietary interest in a property may grant a tenancy. This notion of non-proprietary interest within a property is debatable by many academics and the English law.…

    In the case, the defendant purchased some growing trees, by word of mouth, on the terms that he would remove them as soon as possible. Later, when the defendant cut down some trees, the plaintiff countermanded the sale and prohibited the defendant from cutting the remaining. However, the defendant still cut them and carried them away. It was not denied by either party that there was a verbal contract. However, the question here was whether the contract was required to be in writing under the Statute of Frauds. The issue was whether there has been a transfer of interest in land (in which registration is compulsory) or whether it was a mere sale of timber.…
