A Hawaii Nominee Agreement to Hold Title to Real Property is a legal document that enables an individual or entity to hold and manage a property on behalf of another party. This agreement is commonly used when someone wants to maintain their privacy by keeping their ownership of a property confidential, or when multiple parties want to jointly own and manage a property. In Hawaii, there are two main types of Nominee Agreements to Hold Title to Real Property: 1. Individual Nominee Agreement: This agreement is used when an individual wants to hold a property in their name but act as a nominee for the true owner. The individual nominee usually signs the agreement declaring that they will hold the property title on behalf of the actual owner. This arrangement helps in protecting the true owner's privacy and ensures that the property remains under their control. 2. Corporate Nominee Agreement: This type of agreement involves using a corporation as the nominee to hold the property title. The corporation acts as the legal entity through which the property is owned, managed, and transacted. By utilizing a corporate nominee, the true owner can shield their identity from public records and maintain anonymity in real estate transactions. The Hawaii Nominee Agreement to Hold Title to Real Property typically includes important elements such as: 1. Parties involved: The agreement identifies the true owner(s) of the property and the individual or corporation acting as the nominee holder. 2. Property details: The agreement provides a detailed description of the property being held, including its address, legal description, and any relevant zoning or regulatory information. 3. Nominee's responsibilities: The agreement outlines the responsibilities and limitations of the nominee, which may include managing the property, paying property taxes, ensuring insurance coverage, and executing necessary documents on behalf of the true owner. 4. Compensation: The agreement may specify any compensation or fees payable to the nominee for their services, which can be a fixed amount or a percentage of the property's income or value. 5. Duration and termination: The agreement includes the duration for which the nominee agreement will remain in effect and the circumstances under which it may be terminated, such as completion of a specific transaction or the mutual agreement of the parties involved. 6. Confidentiality and non-disclosure: To protect the true owner's privacy, the agreement often includes clauses stipulating that the nominee must not disclose the true owner's identity or any confidential information related to the property. It is important to consult with a legal professional when drafting or entering into a Hawaii Nominee Agreement to Hold Title to Real Property to ensure compliance with state laws and to address specific concerns or requirements of the parties involved.
