What Is Quite Title Action?
When dealing with commercial property, having a clear title can be crucial in the state of New York. Minimal issues with the title can complicate, or even halt real estate property transaction such as sales, acquisitions, and refinances. Serious problems with the property title can also pose to be a challenge, as it may prevent you from insuring your investment.
The state of New York offers a solution that can help guarantee a clear title on a property, known as quiet title action. This is a formal action where a plaintiff, often an individual looking to claim a property, gives notice to other potentially interested parties via a formal complaint. Other parties can then proceed to make their own claims in court. A final judgement is then given, where all issues are resolved and ownership is clearly established. The conclusion of these proceedings also applies to those who did not come forward with a claim.
Judgements where other potentially interested parties fail to appear occur frequently, and this can be especially true when the conflict deals with an older title defect. The judgement serves to establish a conclusive title and protects you from any potential future claims.
Conflicts with property ownership can arise if a party asserts that a sale was improper or a claim was made fraudulently. Parties may also seek to resolve disputes over old easements or acquire real estate via a judicial sale, after a foreclosure. This is where quiet action titles can be useful, as this can help resolve real estate property conflicts and protect invested parties.
Quiet title actions can be complex procedures that require the expertise of seasoned attorneys, as they require great attention to detail and overlooking even the smallest detail could impact your quiet title action claim. The expert legal counsel at Berg & David has years of experience dealing with quiet title action claims, and we can help guide you to a desirable outcome.
