7 ways to own property in Florida

Home ownership is the American Dream! When you are ready to purchase a home, you usually begin the process of visiting neighborhoods until you narrow it down to a few perfect areas where you would love to live.  You find your dream home or lucrative investment property and now you are ready to make an offer.  

WAIT!

It can take months of searching, 45 days to get financing and weeks of negotiating but it can take one minute to make a mess! How you write your offer is how you will be able to take ownership of the property at closing. 

Here are some of your main options available in Florida:

1.    Fee Simple (ownership as a single owner)rea

2.    Tenants in common

3.    Tenants by the Entirety (as husband and wife)

4.    Joint Tenants with right of survivorship

5.    Life Estate

6.    Holding Company

7.    Revocable Trust

Each option has different inheritance, tax and practical characteristics that may or may not work for you.  The best option is to make sure you consult with a Real Estate Lawyer prior to entering into a contract.  It is also important that a Real Estate Lawyer is acting as a closing agent so that you can be advised as to which of these 6 options above is best for you and your family or portfolio.

The Top Ways to Avoid a Failed Real Estate Sale

At Grimaldi Law Firm, a leading real estate law firm in Florida, we’re always working hard to protect and educate new home buyers on the potential pitfalls of a purchase gone wrong.

We all need to remember that sellers need protection too!

A seller has needs just as important as a buyer in any real estate transaction and those needs should be protected with their own representation during the closing process. We have seen a trend of real estate contracts becoming “dead deals” when the home is older or overpriced and we want to help you avoid even come close to this.

Grimaldi Law Firm prides itself on taking our clients from contracts to keys without any hiccups, so here are four ways to ensure your real estate sale makings it to the closing table as smoothly as possible.

1.     Inspect early

Conduct a pre-contract inspection on your property with a licensed inspector. This avoids having the potential buyer run into any unsatisfactory surprises that may turn them off to purchasing your place altogether. When a pre-contract inspection is conducted, you have the ability to fix, repair, or replace anything that could potentially turn your sale sour way before the buyer’s inspector steps in to do his work.

2.     Avoid the unqualified buyer

An unqualified buyer only means one thing for a person selling their home in Florida: major risk. The risk involved here is that if you enter into a contract with a person who ends up not qualifying for their loan, you’ve just wasted a great deal of your time engaging in and negotiating with a flake of a buyer. To ensure this doesn’t happen to you, insist upon only showing your home to pre-qualified buyers. It is not uncommon for a seller to request a pre-qualification letter and/or proof to ensure the deal can actually make it to the closing table.

3.     Appraise early

Much like an early inspection, an appraisal ahead of the game can save you tons of headaches down the road. Before your realtor recommends a price or you go ahead and overprice your home – have it appraised. It is important to get an understanding of what your property is truly worth and what you can reasonably expect as a final sale price of your home before the buyer’s appraiser steps in. If you overprice your home and enter into a contract with someone who has the house appraised only to find that it is worth less than you’re asking – you’re very likely going to end up with less than you’re asking for the sale of your home. Avoid any surprises like these by doing the dirty work up front, and ensuring you’re setting a price for your home that is reasonable.

4.     Review your file with the city for any open or expired permits

We recommend that all of our Buyers include a clause in their contract for the seller tp close out any open or expired permits.  There is nothing that can delay or “kill” a closing like knowing that there is a permit issue as they can sometimes take months to resolve.  Sellers usually don’t realize that a contractor they hired years ago never finished the last step of closing out the permit.  Pull your property on your city’s permit search system to make sure you don’t have anything lurking in the shadows. 

When it comes to the best real estate advice for buyers and sellers, reach out to  us today! We want to ensure that your real estate transaction not only ends up in your favor, but that you also obtain all the knowledge of real estate from a trusted professional.

At Grimaldi Law Firm, your future is our present.

A Lesson In Protecting Your Property Rights in Florida, Part Two

There is no doubt that Grimaldi Law Firm, a Real Estate Law Firm in Florida, goes the extra mile to ensure our clients rights as property owners are protected.

Which is why we’re on a mission to educate everyone, from first time home buyers in Florida to the most seasoned real estate investor, on the hidden secrets of purchasing real estate.

In the first part of our series on Lessons in Protecting Your Property Rights in Florida, we shared a story about an unknowing couple from Missouri who nearly lost everything when the home they purchased had liens against it from the previous owner. Had it not been for their Real Estate Attorney and Title Insurance Policy, this couple would have not only lost their home to foreclosure, they would have been out a great deal of money as well.

Another example of why it makes all the difference to have the right legal professional involved in the real estate process comes from a story about prominent home builder in Texas, Casa Linda Homes.

This Texas-based builder, who had developed a prestigious reputation over time of developing and selling beautiful homes at affordable prices, found themselves in some hot water over some illegal activity. This builder had been selling first-time homebuyers homes that were overloaded with undisclosed liens. Because these homebuyers did not know what potential challenges they could face as homeowners, they naturally didn’t think to ask if they’d ever end in up hot water over their purchase.

It wasn’t until Casa Linda Homes failed to pay its debt, that the creditors then went after the homebuyers for the money. Foreclosure proceedings and filed lawsuits began flooding in by the dozen, leaving unsuspecting homebuyers to blame for the debt. These deals were “seller financed,” meaning the person selling the house lends the buyer the money for the purchase. The buyer and seller execute a promissory note providing an interest rate, repayment schedule, and consequences of default.

This builder’s biggest crime, was not requiring, or informing, the buyers to buy title insurance. Title insurance would have prevented or resolved this whole mess, protecting the buyers from having any responsibility for such debts.

So, who would have informed them to obtain this important insurance? A Real Estate Attorney – one like Grimaldi Law Firm – who always has your best interests at heart.

A Lesson in Protecting Your Property Rights in Florida, Part One

If you own a home in Florida, you probably know that there are a few circumstances that can threaten your rights as a property owner. At Grimaldi Law Firm, we aim to keep you, your finances, and your property safe, which is why we’re sharing all you need to know about protecting your property rights.

Unfortunately, running into problems as a homeowner may sometimes have nothing to do with you at all. If you’re purchasing a home that was once owned by someone else, it’s important to go the extra mile to ensure you’re not stepping into their mess, literally or figuratively.

Take, for example, this story about an unknowing couple from Missouri:

The Parker’s* had purchased a home from their landlord, who had previously taken out a loan of almost $420,000 to invest in multiple properties. When a title search was performed, this lien was missed, so instead of paying off the lien with the Parker’s money, the landlord received the funds instead. Despite being up to date with their own mortgage payments and doing everything by the book, their former landlord’s bank sent a letter to the Parker’s saying that their home would be auctioned since no payments had been made towards the lien.

Scary situation, right? Imagine being told you had to cough up a huge amount of cash because of someone else’s mistake?

Luckily, the Parker’s Real Estate Attorney had advised them to purchase an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy. Without the help of their attorney, the Parker’s would have never been educated on the potential “what if’s” of buying their new dream home. Their lawyer’s advice kept them from ending up with a foreclosure sign on their front lawn, and also shielded them from having to be responsible for some serious debt. In the end, this insurance policy meant that the title insurance company was responsible for paying the lien. The Parker’s kept their home.

Because the couple purchased an Owner’s Title Insurance Policy, the title insruancecompany paid the lien and the husband and wife kept their home.

There is no better decision to make when buying a home in Florida than to hire a Florida Real Estate Attorney who is on your side. Only your Real Estate attorney can:

-          Answer your legal questions pertaining to your closing.

-          Decipher the ‘legalese’ of any documents you are signing.

-          Resolve any issues with the title and/or existing contract.

-          Give you legal advice as needed.

And this means ensuring that all research is done so that you’re never left in a lurch. This is exactly what we mean when we say that at Grimaldi Law Firm, your future is our present.

Two Ways to Protect Your Real Estate Assets with Grimaldi Law Firm

One of the biggest purchases you’ll ever make in your life happens when you decide to buy a home. Owning real estate means there are important assets in your name, and you have likely taken steps to protect your real estate assets in case something should happen that causes damage or even the loss of your home.

But have you considered the importance of protecting these assets from potential lawsuit or probate case?

Whether the home you own is the one you go to after a long, hard day, or it’s the one you purchased to rent out to other tenants, Grimaldi Law Firm, a leader in Real Estate Law in Hollywood, wants to help you protect every part of your assets. It is just as common for a landlord to jeopardize losing the property he owns after being sued by his renters as it is for your death to cause a family feud over your home or real estate investments or have it be stuck for over a year in probate.

Neither of these risks are one’s worth bearing.

Working with Grimaldi Law Firm for your real estate needs means getting your real estate done right. This includes giving you the two tools for real estate asset protection:

Limited Liability Companies (LLCs)

If the real estate you own is earning you income, then going the LLC route is a great option. Setting up an LLC means you will be able to protect your personal assets from any claims or lawsuits brought against you as a result of being the owner of the property. Your liability is limited to what is owned by thye LLC. In addition, having the LLC associated with your property brings a level of security and anonymity. It is especially important to seek counsel when developing an LLC so that you can ensure you have the guidance you need in order to maintain the LLC and continue to comply with the rules associated with it.

Trusts

A revocable trust, can be changed at any time without the consent of the beneficiaries offers flexibility, privacy and the ability to avoid probate. . Another bonus? Your assets stay within the control of your family.

If you have multiple properties, not to worry! Combining LLCs and trusts in order to ensure your real estate assets are protected is a common practice. Let’s sit down and decide the best course of action to keep you protected and out of court.

Because at Grimaldi Law Firm, your future is our present.

Relocating to Florida? Check Out These Relocation Tips and Resources

Being a real estate attorney in Florida means that I am constantly being asked about what the process of relocating to Florida entails. I, too, am a transplant whose family successfully relocated to the sunshine state from out of the country back when I was a child.

And if you’re thinking of relocating to Florida, I can’t say that I blame you.

Life in Florida is pretty sweet!

But before you pack up and head south, there are a few things that we at Grimaldi Law Firm want you to know. Whether you’re making a full time move down to the sunshine state or are simply looking to purchase a vacation property – we’re happy to help educate you on some Florida tips and tidbits.

1.     Even in a beautiful location, location still matters.

Believe it or not, there are people who move to Florida for reasons other than enjoying more time on the beach. Living on the beach is pretty great, but there are also advantages of living inland as well! Considering your proximity to what matters most to you and your family means more than the landscape for a full-time move – such as school districts, safe neighborhoods, and family-friendly communities.

2.     Taxes & Insurance

Florida has always been a prime location for home buyers considering how much cheaper taxes are in certain areas of the state. One thing to remember though, in a state that has a whole season dedicated to hurricanes, is that what you save in taxes, you may be spending on homeowner’s insurance. In addition to this, insurance companies will insist your new home has hurricane shutters and even hurricane impact windows in some cases, and this can add up quick!

3.     Speaking of weather, plan accordingly.

If you’re thinking of relocating to Florida just for the summer months, please be aware that the summer weather in Florida is highly unpredictable – and wet! During hurricane season, you can expect rain at least once a day, and we’re not just talking a light drizzle! If you don’t mind the heat and humidity in summer, then this won’t be an issue, but for elderly couples who may be affected by the intense Florida summers, this is worth taking note.

4.     Homestead Exemption

A Florida favorite, most new homebuyers in the state of Florida are privy to an amazing exemption! As we recently reported, Florida is a homestead state, meaning Florida homeowners can file for a homestead exemption worth up to $50,000. This exemption reduces the amount of taxes you’ll pay on your property, and puts a cap on how much your taxes might increase on a yearly basis without it. Click here to learn if you qualify for this exemption!

The most important tip of all? Hire a real esatate attorney before entering into a contract!
Florida is very transient state and fraud is not uncommon. Make sure you are protected and of course, ask questions! Relocating is exciting, and we want to help you through this process by answering any questions you may have. Because at Grimaldi Law Firm, your future is our present.

How to Tackle Estate Planning if You Don’t Plan on Getting Married

Marriage. It isn’t for everyone, and these days, more and more couples are opting to forego the marriage document, as there are now 15 million people living together, unmarried. At Grimaldi Law Firm, a leader in Florida Estate Planning Law, there is one thing that certainly is for everyone, and that’s protecting your future whether you believe in marriage or not.

Whatever your reasons are for not tying the knot, you cannot ignore the responsibility to still care for the loved ones you’ll one day leave behind.

Here are some tips and strategies for making the most of the estate planning process with your significant other when marriage just isn’t in the cards:

1.      Retirement Plans

What happens to all that retirement money that you worked so hard to save throughout your lifetime? Once you’re no longer living, you’ll want to make sure it goes to your partner and will need the right paperwork to make that happen. You will likely need a beneficiary designation.

Think having a will is going to cover you? A beneficiary designation takes priority over any will. The same goes for life insurance policies, so make sure you update the beneficiary of those policies as well. 

Also, consider your rollover/distribution options. In many cases companies discriminate against unmarried couples by forcing the non-spouse beneficiary to take a taxable lump-sum distribution of the entire amount.

2.      Account and Property Titling

 It doesn’t matter how long you’ve lived with your partner. If you’re unmarried and you survive your significant other, you are not guaranteed the right to keep or live in the home (especially if there are children from a previous marriage involved).  Even if that property has been your home for years!

There a few ways to ensure you can stay put in your home should you survive your partner:

Tenants in Common or Other Joint Ownership:     This allows ownership of a property by more than one person, regardless of their percentage of ownership. Not only does this allow you to be able to stay in the house upon the death of a partner, upon the sale of the property, each party receives their specific investment and share.

Trusts:    A trust is a surefire way to guarantee legal protection of your property and monetary assets if you are in a domestic partnership. Just like in a marriage, a trust would be drawn up to delegate assets, properties, or any investments in the way you want. The trust will have a clear cut blueprint of the legalities of what would happen if the trustee (the owner of the trust) dies, becomes disabled or becomes unable to transact on their own behalf.

3.      Will, Living Will, and Power of Attorney

 These are critical documents for anyone, whether single, married, or in a domestic partnership.

Living Will and Health Care Surrogate Designation

A living will is a legal document that describes your end-of-life wishes and decisions. This is important to ensure that if there comes a time when you no longer can speak for yourself, that your wants and health care desires are still carried out in a way that suits you and by the person that you wish.

Will

A will is the legal document that goes into detail about all your assets, and who will be named the beneficiaries once you pass away. Keep in mind that any retirement and brokerage accounts as well as life insurance policies will supersede your will, so make sure the beneficiary on those documents is the correct person to be making said decisions. Without this document, your assets will not be left to a non-married partner.  The state’s law will decide who it will be left to and this will likely not be who you want it to be.

Power of Attorney

A power of attorney gives a person the ability to act on your behalf when dealing with legal and financial matters. The person you choose should be a trusted family member or close friend who you can confide in and know with certainty that they will make sure your wants are executed accordingly, especially if you are ever mentally or physically unable to manage your own affairs.  A spouse may sometimes have access to certain accounts or decisions but not an unmarried partner.

There is not a one size fits all family nor a one size fits all estate plan.  Make sure your estate plan addresses your family’s needs… no matter what it looks like.

For any more information on how you can achieve peace of mind for your future regardless of whether or not you and your partner take a walk down the aisle, connect with Grimaldi Law Firm today.

The Importance of Checking In with Aging Family During the Holidays

Another holiday season is upon us, and whether you’re celebrating Easter or Passover, you’re likely gearing up to visit with family you haven’t seen in a while.

At Grimaldi Law Firm, a leader in estate planning, real estate, probate and business law, we value family time more than anything! Not only is this a time to connect, enjoy, and celebrate – it’s a time to check in on those you love most.

If you are fortunate enough to have your parents joining you for this week’s celebrations, bear in mind that this is also a perfect opportunity to “check in.”  Or, more specifically, for adult children to perform a reality check on how their aging parents are doing health-wise, as well as assess financial and medical planning issues.

Remember, your parents spent 18 years or more taking the best care of you, so the cycle of life insists you do the same.

Three things to check for when visiting with your parents:

1.      Check your elderly relatives’ home for potential fall hazards. 

2.      Check for unopened mail. This is often a telltale sign that they are having a hard time caring for themselves or coping on their own.

3.      Check the pantry and refrigerator to ensure it is well stocked with healthy and nutritious options.  If a parent has lost weight or there is spoiled food around, this is a sign that they may need some additional help around the house.

Three things to do before you leave:

1.      Make a list of all your parents’ medications, get the phone numbers of their primary care physicians, and leave these numbers in a clear and visible place, like the refrigerator in case a parent should feel ill. 

2.      Be sure you have the license numbers of all vehicles in case one is stolen or your parent goes missing.

3.      Make decisions with your parents regarding health care directives. If they have not yet set up their estate planning documents, it’s time to help them create one.

If you’d like to learn more about wills, living wills, advance health care directives, power of attorney for health care designations or any other aspects of estate planning, call our office today to schedule a time for us to sit down and talk. We normally charge $750 for a Family Wealth Planning Session, but because this planning is so important, I’ve made space for the next two people who mention this article to have a complete planning session at no charge. Call Grimaldi Law Firm today, and mention this article to reserve your free spot.

Estate Planning in Florida – Don’t Set It and Forget It!

Estate Planning in Florida, in the larger sense, can really be looked at like exercise. You know you’d be better off doing it, and even though you have to convince yourself to make the first move – you know you’ll feel great once you get the job done.

But just like exercise, you can’t just do it once, and then expect the effects to have you covered for life.

In fact, it’s not this way at all.

At Grimaldi Law Firm a Hollywood estate planning, real estate and probate law firm, we preach consistency when it comes to our first practice area. Time and time again, I remind my clients of the following fact: “Estate planning is not a one-time, set it and forget it task. If this is your approach, it will give you a false sense of security. Your estate plan should be revisited every 2-3 years, on top of any life event that may occur in between.”

In short? This is not an area of your life you should procrastinate on or sweep under the rug for a later time. There is no better time to create your estate plan, set specific times to revisit your plan, update accordingly as per the changes in your life – and be an advocate for your family’s financial and emotional future.

Why?

Estate planning serves to meet a few critical goals:

1. To ensure that children will be cared for by the people you want, in the way that you want

2. To protect against unwanted guardians in the event of an untimely death

3. To prevent foster care and state involved protective custody

4. To provide a financial plan that will ensure your children are taken care of

5. To make sure your family can receive the benefit of your life’s work and continue your business.

6. to Ensure your assets transfer smoothly to the next generation and, if possible, avoid probate.

7. In the event of incapacity, ensure your financial matters are taken care of and that your health care wishes are respected.

Once you have a plan, here are the crucial times to make sure you revisit your plan to keep things up to date and timely:

1. When a child is born

2. When your children reach school-age, revisit in case your original listed guardians are no longer alive or able to care for your child

3. If your child is diagnosed with a disability or has special needs that may impact how they need to be cared for

4. If you’ve started a business or made changes to an entrepreneurial venture that would require new information for your family to take into account once inheriting the business

5. When you’ve entered retirement and have different expectations for your surviving family

6. If you’ve experienced a crisis

7. If a child has become ill or passed away

8. If you’ve experienced an accident that requires long-term care

9. If you divorce and need to make changes to who acts on your behalf should you become incapacitated

10. If you are single and don’t know who would receive your assets or make healthcare decisions on your behalf

11. If you become a blended family

12. If you are a same sex couple or enter into a domestic partnership.

13.  If you relocate to another state of country.

As evidence by this long list, change is constant. One thing that should also be constant? How often you look into updating your estate plan. Make sure you’re covered and protected with Grimaldi Law Firm, located just minutes southwest of Fort Lauderdale.  At Grimaldi Law Firm, we provide our clients a free review of their estate plan every 3 years.

At Grimaldi Law Firm, your future is our present.
