Everyone struggles. Because of how easy it has become for people to broadcast their lives, we get a false impression that celebrities don’t face the issues that challenge us all. Having more money doesn’t eliminate problems. Expensive assets and property are costly to maintain. For example, if you purchase a boat for $1 million, you […]

A deed is not a title. A deed is a signed document that establishes that an asset has been transferred. Because this article centers on real estate, the specific asset we are discussing is a home or real property (i.e., land). You will have a title that serves as proof of ownership when you own […]

We had a tough time coming up with a name for this article.

In addition to money, there are a lot of emotions tied in with buying a home. When you fall in love with a house, you begin to envision your future there. Maybe it has a balcony where you plan on having coffee each morning, or it is near where you work. The latter may inspire […]

Over 65 million people live in a home that is overseen by a community association. These exist for a multitude of reasons. The associations usually ensure that each home holds a standard so that its appearance or condition doesn’t negatively affect someone else’s home value.

An easement is another person’s right to use someone else’s property. When people learn of an easement, they quickly conclude that they will simply avoid buying real property with an easement on it.  The fact is that if you hadn’t checked before buying your home, you might have an easement on it without knowing.

There is a possibility that evictions in Indiana will increase dramatically in the next few months—and this was entirely unanticipated. Both landlords and tenants face a future they hadn’t planned for because of the federal moratorium on evictions.
