partition action specifics


What is the name of your state?Calif

Can one "partner" purchase the property when the court orders it sold? Or does it have to be purchased by a third party? We would like to buy it but our co-owners seem to think the property is worth much more than we do.

Once the current appriasal is completed and a price set, anyone can make an offer. If you think your partner is inflating the price, have a real estate attorney make the offer for you. That way, you don't have to reveal your identity until closing

Anyone can purchase the property at a forced sale. The court will order an appraisal and the land will have to be sold at a price in that range (states vary).

**A: or just make the offer as part of the partition settlement prior to trial.
