Good morning. It’s Carl Mullin again. And once again, we are answering questions from sellers, just like you. All right, today is what legal documents do I need to sell my home? Well, there’s a number of them.
The first thing you must have of course, is a signed purchase agreement. Signed by both the seller and the buyer. The second thing is you need to have clear title to the property. If you’ve got a deed and you can present that to the title company, that may help. But they probably do not need it. All right. The third thing is if you are a personal representative, if you are a trustee of a trust that is selling the property. Then you must have paperwork that shows that you have been appointed by the courts. Or you have been established as a trustee in the trust in order to sell the property. The next thing you need … and I’ve talked about this several times before, is a complete seller’s disclosure. That’s just to protect you, that is a CYA document. And it’s really not a legal document, but it’s one that you really ought to have anyway.
And then if you are selling a property that is rented currently, then the other thing that you probably want to provide is the lease, a copy of the lease to the buyer. So if they can see that and know what they’re going to have to deal with as far as taking on those tenants until the end of that lease. But those are the legal documents, the minimum legal documents you must have in order to sell your house.
