Miscellaneous
Our guest Atty. Elton "Bud" Harvey of the Isaac Law firm Farmington office is a true expert on real estate matters and spends significant time testifying in court as an expert witness in real estate disputes. We talked about a new law which determines who can conduct real estate closings in Connecticut; about how the particular form of contract your realtor uses for a Purchase and Sales Agreement can save (or cost) you several thousand dollars at the closing; and some other topics, such as how you can end up owning some of your neighbor’s land (or how she can end up owning some of yours…). We took lots of calls, including questions about adverse possession, out of state real estate owned by a dead parent, conveyance tax issues when selling property, and more.
