What documents shouldI ask the real estate agent , so that no body clims to be a son or daughter of this lady and ask me to give the house back


Before buying this property -- or any property -- hire a title search and pay for title insurance.


This way, generally you can either be assured of clear title, regardless of who makes a subsequent claim, or you can verify that the title is not available to be bought.

How do you use math in realestate?

Well you may use math by calculating your collected income from commission you' ve earned. For example, say you sold a $300,000 home. Most realestate agents get paid about 3% of the closing value of the home. So you would do 300,000x.03 and you would get $9,000. But don't foget about taxes, which is always 10%. So 10% of $9,000 is $900. So then subtract 900 from 9000. Then the realestate agent knows that he/she will be getting about $8,100 from selling the home. Hope that helped!!!

Usually just the person that owns the condo.Review your governing documents to understand the qualifications for board membership in your particular community.No two states establish the same requirements; as well condominium governing documents will vary wildly on this point.During the declarant control period, when the project is new and the developer/ builder is still selling units, the declarant may have special rights of board appointment.Reasonably, however, in established condominium communities, being an owner is generally a requirement. In many communities, being a resident is usually preferable, although it may not be required.
