Mr Sam creates a family trust “Sam Family Trust” on 1 February 2007 and has his children (Jason and jackie) as beneficiaries of the trust. He appoints his brother and sister-in-law as trustees, Mr Gorge Smith and Mrs Helen Smith.

The trust document mentions the following terms:

The purpose of this trust is to create an income for its beneficiaries, so named:

Jason, born 26 August 1995.

Jackie, born 9 April 1997.

Trustees must abide by any statutory duties and may exercise general powers where necessary.

The trustees have the power to enter into any sale and purchase of real estate.

The trustees have the power to invest trust funds.

The trust acknowledges the rights of the trustees under statute.

After 2 years of the Sam Family Trust being in existence, Mr Gorge(one of the trustees) decides to purchase a property in Oregan, through the trust, from Mr Collin shaw. Originally a wealthy overseas investor, Mr Smith gained citizenship in States a few years ago and has acquired a number of different properties, including the one inOregan.

Mr Collin Shaw engaged a real estate agent to sell the property. The agent approached Mr Gorge on October 2 2009, who advised the purchaser would be Sam Family Trust.

Mr Gorge smith signed an agreement for the purchase on 3 October 2009, however Mrs Helen Smith did not sign as she was not aware the purchase was taking place.

The agent suspected there was more than one trustee but did not raise this issue as they thought Mr Gorge power to act alone was present in the trust document.

When the agreement was sent to the respective solicitors on 5 October 2009, the issue of Mr Gorge signature alone was not raised. Close to the sale being finalised (on 15 October 2009), Mrs Helen Smith refuses to sign the transfer (1 day prior to sale finalising) and the deal does not go ahead.

Mr Shaw is very upset and goes to his lawyer seeking what remedy he is able to get - he wants the deal to be finalised with the Sam Family Trust. Mr Gorge solicitor has been notified of this proceeding and must prepare a defence for Mr Gorge and the Sam Family Trust.

this is a repost of sorts because i did not give all the information. my gf and i had a rental house together. both of our names were on the lease. the utilities were in my name. we broke up, under good terms, i thought, no cops or court orders. she has three daughters so it made sense should she stay and i stay with friends. she asked me to move out (nicely) and asked that i keep the utilites on in my name because she was unable to afford to get them in her name and that she would pay the bills. im not sure where else but in nc after x amount of months that you have left a property you legally abandoned the property even though that was not my intent. after the break up i tried to get my name off of the lease. the real estate company wouldn’t allow it. i couldn’t get my name off the lease nor could i stay there. there was a bit of a domestic issue when i tried to get my stuff back. the cop said i had legally abandoned the property and would have to get her permission to get it back. two days later she allowed me to go back in while she was at. work. so you see i was in sort of a catch 22 as far as the lease was concerned. i need to know what sort of recourse i have in an upcoming small claims court action i have against. her. i need to know what part of the law i have on my side so as to say i’m not legally obligated to the property. and by the way i’m taking her to court because she bailed on the property and the deposity( which was loaned to us by my mother) was taken and the utilities i let her use she ran up and did not pay. any advice. and thanx to those out there who just assumed i had some sort of restraining order against me

I recently leased my home through my realtor. Another realtor brought the client to us. Unfortunately, the tenants realtor was very unethical and allowed his clients to move into my home before the lease term. We found out and decided to have our realtor put a stop payment (1/2 month’s rent) on the check that was to go to the tenant’s realtor because he was blatantly dishonest cost us a lot of money in utilities. I actually spoke to the tenants broker and let him know what happened and let him know I had them put a stop payment on the check. He spoke to all parties involved, called me back and assured me they would not be keeping any of the money and would return all of it to me if it ended up clearing the bank. Now he is changing his mind stating that putting a stop payment on the check was illegal. What can I do? The tenant’s realtor broke the law by trespassing and allowing his clients to trespass, how can a broker back that kind of action.
I already notified the other realtor’s broker that I would be filing a complaint against his realtors broker with the Texas Real Estate Commission. If his broker wants to be a jerk about this after promising me I would not have to pay his realtor, I will file a complaint against the broker as well.
Sorry, I made a typo…I told the other realtor’s broker I would be filing a complaint against his realtor and I will file a complaint against the broker as well if he decides to be a jerk.
You are right it was a payment for the original contract. They broke the contract by moving in 2 weeks before the lease term started.
BTW, Ross, what exactly do you mean by When you wrote and SIGNED that contract promising payment (the check) you should have taken the time to realize what you are paying for but you didn’t". When I signed that contract and agreed to pay them their half it was based on the fact that their tenants would not occupy the home until the agreed upon date. Not only did they move their stuff into my house beforehand when they only had the approval to take measurements. They turned down my air conditioning really low, and plugged in a refrigerator stocked with food. Costing me a lot of money in electricity and other utilities ($200 in electricity and $130 in water). On top of that the tenants realtor accessed the home a minimum of 4 times without permission (he lives across the street)…so you tell me, is that enough harm? He took advantage of the fact that he knew our home was vacant and cost us money in utilities.
Turns out the other broker has no problems with me getting my money. Not exactly sure what the hold up is.

Further information. The tenants paid my realtor for the first months rent and security deposit. Then my realtor paid the other realtor from that. We found out they moved in before the term about a week after they sent our realtor the cashiers checks. I asked them to hold the check & not send it bcuz he wasn’t going to get paid (because the whole truth was slowly coming out, but it was clear the other realtor had allowed his clients to trespass)My realtor went to find the check and discovered it had been mailed already so he requested a stop payment on it. I refuse to pay the other realtor because the whole while he was telling his client to rent our house because they could move in at their leisure before the lease term. The other realtor gave them access to the house without persmission and his broker understands that he broke realtor code by doing this

Isn’t there a law stating that if you want to hire someone to help you do work around the house or on a job site that you don’t have to have them legally tied is an employee, where taxes etc are paid?

If you know any details on this including the code number or name of this law that would help out. Thanks, I have a guy that’s going to help me with some work and he seemed a little ‘un easy’ wondering if I was legit or something. I am its just short term work and its only one temporary employee….

But this law it seems like if its under a couple hundred hours…etc…you’re ok…..details anyone? Thanks so much.

So basically…when is under the table (short term) legal? I dont know this gentlement I did some advertising for ‘real estate’ computer assistance and he was one who replied.
I am paying him $15 an hour and in cash

In December 2008, I renewed my lease with my landlord for 1 year. The following month, my landlord decided to put the property on the market as a short sale because he was upside on the loan. The real estate company who I have always dealt with when it came down to the lease and issues etc asked me if I would be willing to leave earlier than the lease if they could not find an investor to buy and keep me as a tenant…I agreed even though I did not have to legally since I was in a lease. May 2009 my employer gives me an offer to relocate out of the area or take a severance package. I email the real estate company to inform them of my situation and I asked if the landlord would be willing to let me out of the lease without penalty or as an alternative and last resort keep security deposit. The agent calls me and advised that it wouldnt be a problem to leave and get security deposit because it would be easier to show property as long as I was out in 30 days. I send a confirmation email tot he agent to confirm our conversation and terms of the agreement which consisted of my moving out of the property by 6/15/09, the landlord pro-rating Junes rent for 15 days and deducting that out of the deposit of $2800, completing a final walk through to return keys and remotes, and leaving property in condition that it was in when I received it.

The agent replies to my confirmation email confirming that the landlord agreed to my proposal.

I move out but realty company declines final walk through (so I took video and photos) and mailed keys via FedEx for delivery on 6/15/09 which FedEx shows they received.

I hear nothing from anyone so I sent a follow up/demand letter for security deposit to the landlord on 7/8/09 and then I get a nasty call from the agent saying they did not agree to return the security deposit and that I broke the lease..they claim the agreement was that I gave up my deposit in order to get out the lease. I reminded the agent of the emails I had and forwarded him copies as proof and he never replies…then I get a letter from the landlord after I filed small claims a week later saying I either drop the case or he will file counter claim for June rent through end of lease and says, "I cant have it both ways".

Is the landlord entitled to keep the deposit even though we had a written agreement (between his agent and myself in email) agreeing to allow breaking of lease with no penalty? Also, I read Granberry vs. Islay Investments, 1995 and it looks like because the landlord didnt send an intemized statment within the 21 day timeframe required by law, he gave up his right to the security deposit.

Would this be considered bad faith to allow for damages and how can I stress this to the judge?

Any feedback/advise suggestions is appreciated.
