Title to Real Property: Deeds and Marketable Title Title to real property is a basic concept of property law. Title deeds and documents are legal papers proving your right to own real property and are vital during a real estate transaction. These documents show legal ownership of tangible property.
However, the most important documents in real estate are offers, agreements, and contracts between the buyer and seller.
Sellers must disclose the condition of all items on a seller disclosure form, plus any known material defects not listed on the form.
Seller disclosures in Texas are governed by Texas Property Code Section § 5.008 (1983). This statute says that sellers of single-unit residential real property must give purchasers a written notice containing their knowledge of the condition of the property.
Property Condition: The Seller's Disclosure Notice requires detailed information about the property's condition, including the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical systems, and appliances. Sellers must indicate if these elements are in good working order or if there are known issues.
What Should A Seller's Disclosure Include? List of specific issues the homeowner must check off if the home has them. Questions about the property the seller must answer with “Yes,” “No” or “Unknown” Space to provide further explanation of the issue and if it was fixed.
In a worst-case scenario, criminals can use a fraudulent home title to turn around and sell the property to unsuspecting buyers without the real owner's knowledge or consent. This creates multiple victims: the true owner of a property, the buyer and possibly even the bank or lender.
Now that the home is under new ownership, the property owner bears the responsibility of anything related to the property. The only way you could be liable at this point, is if something happens and the buyer can prove that you should have known about it, and therefore were responsible to disclose it to them.
It is technically impossible for anyone to sell your property without your explicit signed consent.
In most cases, it is not possible for someone to sell your house without your knowledge or consent, especially if they do not have a power of attorney. A power of attorney is a legal document that grants someone the authority to act on your behalf, and it can include the power to sell your property.
