Closings, deeds and restrictive agreements: does the buyer know what is being bought?

Disclaimer: This article is not intended to be legal advice. Legal advice depends on the particular circumstances of each person. If you have a related issue, you should consult with your attorney who practices law in his state regarding his particular circumstance. This article is for informational purposes only.

The title agent ushered us into a large and beautiful conference room. My client sat down first. I sat in the chair directly across from her. After flashing me a nervous smile, he placed his arms on the cold, shiny conference room table and clasped his hands, interlacing his fingers.

She was clearly nervous…

And I should have been nervous; this was the first time she had bought real estate. Plus, she was buying this house during the real estate boom, when the real estate market was at its craziest. More importantly, you were buying this home directly from the builder, and you agreed to allow your builder’s mortgage company to finance the purchase of the home and your builder’s title company to close the real estate deal, which generally complicates the stuff for unsuspecting homebuyers.

Unfortunately, I did not represent her at the time she signed her real estate contract as she hired me just days before closing. (For the record, I generally advise most buyers to get their financing and title/closing agent services from a party unrelated to the builder.)

The closing agent brought a stack of documents for my client’s signature. He put the documents in front of me and then left the room, closing the door behind him. Of course, I was there to review each document of my client to advise her before he signed any more documents. Most of the documents were fine.

However, there was one document that caused me serious concern: The Deed.

“Did someone tell you that if you sold your house within the next 4 years, you would have to pay the builder a penalty of 15% of the sale price?” I asked him after reviewing his handwriting. I was surprised to see such a provision in the deed as I did not remember seeing such a requirement in the real estate contract a few days earlier.

“NO!!!!!!” she responded quickly. Obviously she was surprised by my question.

“Are you okay with paying the builder a 15% penalty if you sell the house within 4 years?” I asked, looking up from the writing.

“NO!!!!!!!!!”

“Therefore, I advise you not to sign any of these closing documents and to withdraw from this closing unless the builder agrees to remove these provisions from your deed…”

I called the title agent into the room and informed him that the closing would not go through unless the builder agreed to change the deed. The title agent returned to the office. He promptly returned with a revised deed.

From then on, we closed the real estate deal.

THE PROBLEM

Do you understand your work? What about your restrictive covenants? Do you even know what restrictive covenants are? Do you know to demand to see all of your closing documents before closing?

Would you believe that most buyers don’t? Would you believe that lawyers who don’t practice real estate don’t?

As a result, just like the seller in the previous scenario, sellers can easily surprise potential buyers right at the closing table. This obviously puts sellers at a substantial advantage.

What’s worse is that even if the buyer is surprised, the seller can threaten to keep the buyer’s deposit if the closing does not occur that day. This puts the buyer in an obvious dilemma. Since real estate deposits tend to be substantial, most buyers feel they have no choice but to sign the closing documents.

THE SOLUTION

Buyers should try to protect their interests in their closings:

  1. Consider asking your closing agent to provide all your documents at least 48 hours before closing.
  2. Consider reading all your documents. If you don’t understand something, consider asking an appropriate person to explain it to you.
  3. If you see anything suspicious in your closing documents, consider consulting with an attorney in your jurisdiction about the matter.
  4. If trying to understand the closing process, documents and/or concepts overwhelms you, consider hiring a real estate attorney to represent you in the transaction.
  5. In many jurisdictions, hiring a real estate attorney to solely represent you in the closing process typically costs less than $1,500.00, which is less than a month’s mortgage payment for many people. This is a small investment to protect the investment you are making in your new home.

Thunderbird – Email configuration with IMAP protocol

There are some benefits to setting up these accounts instead of POP. This protocol allows you the versatility of synchronizing your email, whether you are sending or receiving through a webmail login or sending or receiving through an email program. For example, you can configure your client program at home and at work, and if you have configured your email account at both to use this protocol, your sent and received messages will be synchronized. It is convenient.

You always have the option of downloading your emails to your local computer, but then you will lose that synchronization ability since the two computers (home and work) are synchronized by the servers. One of the drawbacks of using this protocol is that it takes up disk space on your server.

Look for a web hosting company that will allow you plenty of disk space, as disk space is cheap these days. There is another drawback to shared hosting servers which is mentioned below. When multiple email accounts are configured to use this protocol and the accounts are configured to check the server for new messages more frequently, say 30 minutes, this can result in 500 error pages. The only way is to kill the process ids which I will show later using Cpanel. But I’m getting ahead of myself, so we’ll show you how to set up your account.

1. First, download the Thunderbird program by searching Google ‘thunderbird mozilla’. It is a free and robust program and works well with Vista, XP, Mac OSX and Linux and in various languages. What more could you want?

2. Open the program. Click “Tools” and then “Account Settings” in the menu bar at the top of the program.

3. Under “Account Settings”, click the “Add Account…” button on the left side.

4. A window titled “Account Wizard” will appear. Just click the “Next” button.

5. Type your name and email address in the corresponding fields, and then click the “Next” button.

6. IMPORTANT: Select the “IMAP” setting instead of the “POP” setting. In the “Incoming mail server” field, type “mail.tutorialref.com” (without the quotes). You may need to contact your server administrator to get your incoming mail server. Then click the “Next” button.

7. In the “Incoming Username:” field, type your email address, and then click the “Next” button.

8. In the “Account Name” field, type your email address, and then click the “Next” button.

9. Click the “Finish” button.

10. Highlight your email address by clicking the one that is visible on the left side of the window.

11. Click “Server Settings” and then change the value from “10” to “30” in the “Check for new messages every” field. Now I found that if you are a server admin set this to a much higher value like “360” which means checking for new messages every 6 hours instead of every 30 minutes. The reason is that (for whatever reason) there tends to be a lot of imap processes running and they tend to lag. This on a linux system (which I think is Centos). I discovered this with one of my web hosting accounts with bluehost.

If you set up a lot of email addresses like I did for a client of mine, the mail servers would check for new messages every 30 minutes and the result was a lot of process ids that ended up sometimes causing the server to show all accounts ( all websites). ) associated with this web hosting account to display 500 error pages. There is a solution to this problem on the site located at Cpanel Tutorials.

Alternatively, you can probably set up a separate mail server on a separate domain but that’s a tutorial for another day. If your customers want, they can manually verify their emails. I would only set the “Check for new messages every” field to 30 for those people who really need and can’t be bothered to manually check for new messages. This is just a warning if you set this field value too low.

12. Click on “Composition and Routing”, which is a subsection. Click the dropdown menu below the “Automatically quote original message when replying” line, as illustrated. Then select “begin my reply above the quote”.

13. Now click on “Offline and disk space” on the left side. Check “Make messages in my inbox available when I’m working offline” and “When I create new folders, select them for offline use” as illustrated.

14. Click on “Trash Settings” on the left side. Check “Trust spam headers set by”. You can leave it selected under “SpamAssassin”. And check “Move new spam messages to:” Leave the rest at the default settings.

15. On the left side, scroll down and select “Outgoing Server (SMTP)”. Then on the right hand side near the top, click the “Add” button as illustrated.

16. Do the following:

Yo. In the “Server Name” field type “[outgoing mail server name]”. On some servers, the outgoing mail server is different. I believe this is the case with the home ISP. Contact the server administrator for this information if you are unsure.

ii. In the “Port” field type, change the number to “26”. Most home ISPs disable port 25 due to spam, so port 26 is used.

third In the field “Username and password” write your email address. Then click the “OK” button.

17. On the left side, select your email address. You may need to use the scroll bar and scroll up. Then click on the drop down menu as illustrated and select “[your email address] – [outgoing mail server name]”.

18. You will now be able to retrieve your messages. Click “Inbox” for your email account. A box will appear asking for your password. If the box does not appear, simply click the “Get Mail” button as illustrated.

19. Sending Email: When you send email from Thunderbird, you may sometimes receive a screen as follows. Just click “OK”. Create a new email now to test if everything is working correctly. Send an email to yourself.

20. The first time you try to send an email, a screen will appear asking for your password. Type your password and check “Use Password Manager to remember this password”.

21. Click the “Get Mail” button to check if you received your test message.

Thunderbird Mail is a robust and free program that is suitable on multiple platforms: Mac OSX, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Linux. There are also several useful plugins that allow for much greater flexibility, such as synchronization with Google Calendar. I will post more articles on using plugins in later articles.

I just want to ask a psychic a free question

If you’re like me, I’m pretty sure seeing the word “free” makes you feel something.

How many of us have ever dreamed of entering the Ellen Degeneres 12 Days of Sweepstakes over the holiday season? What about Oprah’s favorite things? Overwhelmingly, people seem to go all out and are almost willing to sell their firstborn son for something for free. I’m a regular on cruises all year long and nothing excites me more than getting something for free in a contest or just for getting on the ship, even though I know I’ll never use the item. Truly, free feels good. Why would that be any different in the realm of the psychic?

In my experience as a psychic, I have found that people enjoy the opportunity to ask a free psychic question or get a free psychic reading. The offer is quite tempting: Potentially find out something about your future that you might not otherwise have known, that may catch you off guard or even surprise you. All this without personal investment on your part. In fact, I have no problem giving someone a free reading.

However, my policy regarding free readings and free psychic questions may be a little different than others. I’m absolutely going to do them with the understanding that what I’m going to give you is going to be pretty succinct and not crammed with a ton of detail. I tend to trade this day as a matter of principle and fairness. There are those who choose to do paid readings with me, and frankly, it would be more than a little shady to give a person who asks for a free psychic question an answer with the same level of attention or detail that I give to those who choose to do so. paid readings.

I also understand that there are people whose sole purpose in a free psychic question is to test the accuracy of their chosen psychic before they choose to invest monetarily in the psychic. This is one of the main reasons why many of my contemporaries tend to avoid doing free psychic readings and questions. Many find these tests insulting or like they are being used and I understand where my colleagues are coming from; this method can be unpleasant. I am of the school of thought that as long as the psychic’s time is respected and not taken advantage of, a free psychic question is harmless. After all, we test drive vehicles before we buy them.

All this said, doing readings for free or otherwise is always an investment of time and energy on your psychic’s part, so you should always be in a position to tip your psychic for nothing more than the time and energy they spend. invested in doing a reading for you.

There are those among us who do readings as a business opportunity and there is nothing wrong with that. This is a gift and just like singers and other artists get paid to share their gift, your psychic should also be compensated in some way whether they give you a free psychic question or not.

Feel hurt and be fair.

Removing a kitchen wall adds space to a small kitchen

When Matt Brown, 38, and his wife wanted to make improvements to their Blue Bell, New York, home to add maximum resale value before listing their 1978 ranch-style home for sale, they bet their entire budget on the kitchen. .

“If you want up to 1.5 times the return on your investment when selling a home, kitchens and bathrooms are the only two rooms in the house that can generate this kind of return, and even more.”

The kitchen was dated and small, not exactly what you’d call an eyesore, but not something that would put them over the top from a buyer’s perspective. The floor was 8 year old laminate that looked like a picture of plastic hardwood (which is what laminate is, it just shouldn’t look like a picture). The cabinets were aged white and the appliances were 10 years old even though the fridge was new. The counter was 20 year old formica and there were some bubbles from damage when something very hot was placed on the counter and the formica couldn’t take the heat. “Many people thought our kitchen was cute, but we felt that some buyers, especially those who like to cook, would be put off by the small spaces and lack of an island.

With a budget of $15,000, they decided to put it all into the kitchen. To one side of the kitchen was a long hallway or “lobby” that contained the front door of the house. Since the kitchen was at the back of the house, they decided to break through the wall to almost double the size of the kitchen. Yes, the foyer hallway wasn’t even half the size anymore, but no one used the hallway to walk to the back of the house and it was mostly wasted space. Of course, the wall that separated the hall from the kitchen was not load-bearing and was easily knocked down in one day of demolition.

In the new space, the Browns decided to create more work space by adding 7 more feet of countertop and a kitchen island (no plumbing). To bring the room together, the existing Formica countertop was broken out and replaced with a countertop to match the new countertop in the new space and island. “We used Formica again, which has gotten a lot better in the last 5 years. There are all kinds of colors and textures and some Formica resemble stone like granite, and they do a really good job of fooling people.” Because we needed a new stove and dishwasher, we just didn’t have the budget for real concrete or granite.

Again, budget limited our choice of laminate flooring, but we found some great selections to choose from made by Mohawk, they were so nice we had a hard time choosing. In the end, we chose a darker wood look with thick grain. The flooring was pressure joined and took less time to install than demolition.

We didn’t have room for a range hood in our new design, however we felt it was very important to vent the kitchen fumes to the outside, so we chose a downdraft system with the fan housed below the cooktop, and we were able to vent directly outside through a duct that was only 4 feet long.

Since we had maxed out our budget, we had nothing left for the backsplash, so we simply painted the backsplash a uniform beige over each of our countertops, making sure to use a semi-gloss paint so spills would be easy. to clean and clean. The house goes up for sale tomorrow and with this complete kitchen remodel, we hope to get very close to our listing price.

Search Engine Optimization: What Not to Look For

Have you received spam emails from people promising to increase traffic to your website by ranking it high in SERPS (Search Engine Result Pages)? We get them all the time. In fact, Google claims that they even receive these unwanted requests. This is an example of an email received from Google in the past:

“Dear google.com,
I visited your website and noticed that it is not listed in most major search engines and directories…”

Funny huh? But how many people respond to these ridiculous emails and spend a lot of money in the hope that they can increase traffic to their website? What’s worse, many of these companies are capable of brainwashing their customers into thinking that they are actually profiting! Companies that use these unethical business practices give the entire SEO (search engine optimization) community a bad name.

Two Point Enterprise writes this article on what NOT to look for when shopping for SEO so that you can arm yourself to make an informed decision. We know of no better way to illustrate this article to you than to feature a spam email we received from one of these rogue companies. Please read the email in the screenshot below carefully, and then check out our feedback.

Click here for a screenshot of the email

The subject line of the email was “Do you want references from your website?” (I guess they were in such a hurry to send this email that they didn’t even take the time to check the spelling.)

The first red flag is receiving the email in the first place! Check out Google’s Webmaster Information and you’ll see the first thing they tell you is “Beware of SEO companies that send you emails out of the blue.”

The next thing the author of this spam email tries to do is make a weak attempt to identify himself with real estate agents. Hence the words, “Location, Location, Location.” (Sorry partner, you’re not getting into bed with me.) Then they pay credit that you may already have a good website, but if you could increase traffic, you could bring millions of customers and billions of dollars to your website. They apparently dismiss pay-per-click services without giving credit to the fact that real estate is actually something that pay-per-click can do quite well with—in big cities, that is. Finally, as with all spam emails like this, they think they have the solution you’ve been looking for!

We couldn’t help but laugh a little at the next line where they increase the font size and announce: “¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ (One more exclamation point and I think everyone in the office will have freaked out!) Wet pants.) Seriously, Mr. Spammer, what’s in here? Are they SEO services with a perpetual monthly fee to guarantee you recurring income? I hate to spoil the party, but SEO was around long before that you registered your domain on September 24, 2004. And monthly fees were invented a long time ago too. I’ll give them a little credit for ensuring your satisfaction instead of your ranking. Google rule #2 is: “No one can guarantee the #1 spot.” However, they don’t tell you how they guarantee your satisfaction in the email. I’d be surprised if it’s a guarantee of 100% money back. I bet they have it set up where they end up pocketing money one way or another. If they can brainwash you into thinking they’re doing a good job, they don’t have to pay you back.

The next thing this spam email does is try to establish credibility for themselves. They want you to go to a search engine and search for the massive, non-competitive five-word phrase “neighborhood prospecting websites for realtors.” If the reader did not delete the email and put it in the recycle bin, they will see that the company that sent this email is currently ranked first in this search. We inserted the five-word phrase into a Google AdWords campaign and made it an offer of $5. After submitting, Google automatically adjusted the price to $0.02 (because that’s its value), gave it the first position on the page (because there’s no competition for that phrase), and estimated that our cost per day for the phrase would be $0.00 ( because no one in the world would be looking for that). So big deal guys if you are the #1 result for “neighborhood prospecting websites for real estate agents”. That’s because no one else wants it!

Now look down some more and see what we have here! Well, if it’s not an intellectual property and trademark infringement against the search engines, Google, MSN and Yahoo!. I would be willing to bet that these search engines did not license any use of their trademarks. I also don’t see any notice at the bottom identifying the rightful owners of the trademarks, nor do I see the author disclaiming any affiliation with these search engines. Subtle little images like this can mislead the reader into thinking that some kind of special relationship, or affiliation, has been tampered with with the search engines. Google says “beware of SEOs that alleviate a ‘special relationship’ with Google.” My guess is that Google has no plans to enter into some sort of strategic partnership with these whiz kids any time soon.

Next we have the registration button where we can make our monthly donation to these people. How thoughtful of you to make the button so nice and big. We don’t want to get lost when we try to click the mouse!

At the bottom, they try to abide by the rules and offer you and your little link to opt out of future emails from them. Unless they’re making it up to you, why should you take time out of your day to opt out of this email you didn’t request in the first place? Good luck with that, by the way. Two weeks ago we received this email and we ask you to stop spamming us. They responded and told us that we got it because we signed up for something, which we know full well we didn’t. However, we gave them some slack and scrapped it. Then on 2-3-2006 we received this same email again after we told them 2 weeks before to stop emailing us.

I hope you enjoyed the article! Good luck with your SEO!

Do you want to impress your Latino boyfriend? Here are 3 easy ways to love her

While waiting at Princeton University Hospital for the birth of my grandson, Sharon, the nurse, chatted happily. After a while, the conversation turned to dating, and she confided in me that she had just started dating a Latino man. She really enjoyed her company and wanted to make a good impression on her.

She hoped that my Latino heritage could give her an idea of ​​her personality. Sharon wanted to make a real impression on her new boyfriend. She was a bit shy and a slow approach was what she was looking for.

I went over three important key areas in the Latino relationship:

  • you just have to be his
  • He loves to have fun and romance.
  • You must know your place in the home.

Women often have to deal with different traditions and cultures that their mothers have taught their Latino boyfriends. Depending on your age, this may be only one generation away from very strict moral values ​​and customs.

first simple rule. Always behave like a Lady. Know that she loves her family, especially her mother and grandmother. Keep a low profile when meeting her sisters and aunts. However, dress to impress, it will go a long way.

Second, Never discuss at length about a past relationship. Your Latino boyfriend does not want to talk about other men past or present. Remember now that you met him, there really has never been anyone else!

Third, learn to dance, take salsa lessons, or just go online and learn a step or two. Salsa dancing is a lot of fun and she will be impressed that you took the time to learn. If you usually cook for him, add a Spanish dish. A simple side of white rice and black beans is all you need to impress your Latino boyfriend. Goya foods have many receipts online.

Sharon was pleased with our conversation and took notes on how to cook some Spanish dishes. She already made white rice, but now with a touch of lime, it would be very fluffy and spicy.

It was a great experience to see the birth of my grandson. I thanked Sharon for all her support and taught her a few Spanish words to whisper in her ear for extra points in her favor.

Plant nutrition: empty calories or rich nutrients?

Every Sunday is like the last, my wife sends me to the store with a list of items for the week. All the basics are there:

  • Milk
  • eggs
  • cereal
  • Yogurt
  • Celery
  • Lettuce

You get the idea. Like a zombie, I mindlessly walk around the store and get each item on the list and take them home. As I unpack I start commenting on each item (I should probably write an article on why I shouldn’t) and why we don’t need them.

I always obsess over celery and lettuce. They do nothing for me and I see them as a topping on my sandwich or meal. Actually, I’d rather substitute spinach or broccoli, because I know those two vegetables are healthy (as long as Pop-Eye and my mom aren’t lying).

That got me thinking about researching and writing an article on the nutritional benefits of lettuce and celery. Exciting, devastating stuff, I know.

Well, I was actually quite surprised by the minerals and nutrients each contains. For example, did you know that celery is a great source of riboflavin, calcium, dietary fiber, and contains good amounts of vitamins A, B6, C, and K? Me neither. All of these nutrients and vitamins are key building blocks that keep our bodies functioning at a high level.

What about the lettuce? Well let me break that down too. Lettuce contains thiamine, vitamins B6, A, C, K, and (like celery) are very good sources of dietary fiber, folate, and manganese.

So now that you know the power these watery and tasteless vegetables have, here are some ways to incorporate them into your daily meals.

Celery, when I think about it, looks like the main side with a chicken wing dish. Well, that may be very true, but have you ever tried adding celery to soup? Your spinach salad? How about mixing it with canned tuna and spreading it on bread for a sandwich? These are all great ways to include celery in your diet without having to eat it raw.

He wants his children to eat more celery. I’ll be trying the tried and true Ants on a Log recipe that the kids have been devouring for who knows how long. Simply cut each celery stalk into 3 pieces, spread peanut butter in the gap (or almond butter for a healthier option), and add 3 to 4 raisins (these are your ants) and voila!

How about the lettuce? Well, just because you buy it for taco night and then forget about it until it starts to stink in your fridge, doesn’t mean it can’t be used as a food enhancer for lunch or dinner. Make a turkey sandwich or another luncheon meat? Sprinkle some lettuce on top. Have a leftover tomato sitting on the counter, cut it up and combine it with lettuce for a quick salad.

There are many easy and simple ways to get the most out of celery and lettuce. While these two vegetables may not be the most appealing around (I’m looking at you, radish… oh, heck), they still pack a ton of vitamins and nutrients and shouldn’t be overlooked when planning meals.

The fundamentals and benefits of industrial design

What is an industrial design?

An industrial design is a unique form of patent, used to protect an improvement in functionality. If the innovation for which you are seeking protection is based on improving usability rather than visual appearance, you should consider filing a patent application if you believe it meets the patentability requirements. Similarly, these changes do not shield intangible assets that are not visible to the naked eye.

What benefits does registration provide?

For business owners, an industrial design registration can be an important business asset. The success of a product is generally influenced by its shape; In an aesthetics-driven consumer base, the appearance of a designer product can often be just as or more important than its functionality.

Obtaining exclusive rights to a product with a specific look can result in a significant return on investment because it will allow you to prevent others from reproducing a popular design.

If someone infringes your design, you can take your case to court and receive compensation for lost sales as a result of the infringement of your design registration. As with copyright, an industrial design can be sold or licensed to others.

Additionally, registering your industrial design can help you establish trademark goodwill in a specific shape and appearance of the item, known as its appearance in trademark law. This can increase the overall protection you have from others copying your design.
