Multi-State Residential Real Estate Law Articles

The purpose of this article is to briefly point out six things to look for in a fair commercial lease:

Probate is a court case that is sometimes necessary in order for an estate's executor or administrator to collect the property of a deceased individual the decedent and distribute that property to the decedent's heirs and beneficiaries. A probate case is typically opened in the state in which the decedent primarily resided. However, if the decedent owned property in states other than his or her primary residence, the executor or administrator may need to open secondary probate cases in those states in order to gain control of the property in those states. These cases are known as "ancillary probate" cases.

One of the most common price structures is for the owner to pay the contractor the cost of work plus the contractor’s fee. ​Often, in a “cost-plus-fee” contract, the contractor’s fee is calculated as a certain percentage of the actual costs associated with the work, including labor, materials, storage, and transportation. A common way to mitigate the owner’s risk and provide a level of certainty as to the cost of the project is for the contractor to set a guaranteed maximum price.
