What is the name of your state: New Jersey
I am the named executor of an estate and was upheld in that capacity in our initial hearing by the judge, with limited authority.
There was a caveat entered that has stopped probate and the case is in the "settlement conference" stage. No 'letters' have been issued.
Its been a year and a half since the caveat was entered & now the estate itself is about out of $.
The house is unoccupied AND un-insured. The "contestor" has been largely unco-operative with $ for any expenses. A vacant home policy for 90 days is about
1,100.00 The lawyers involved have been strongly urging me to get the house on the market.
I had it listed with the R.E. company where I hold my real estate license though I was not the listing agent.
I had alerted the Agency that there needed to be a disclosure with sign off to hold harmless the estate from any and all damages to all that entered. I would accompany the entrants to act as witness to visits, inspections etc. All entry to the property was to be at the sole risk of loss to the prospects and their Agent. The one showing that they did have does not appear to have been adequately covered by an appropriate hold harmless agreement.
After 2 weeks the Broker of Record decided [after speaking with his attorney] that the risk was too great for his firm and released the estate from the listing.
I have placed a FSBO sign and am fielding the inquiries.
Is there a format that I can use to create such a document that will "hold water" OR....is this UPL ?
My lawyer & the lawyer for the bene have been asked since the inception of the listing for such a document and to date it has not been provided.
The peak Summer home sale window is closing and I have received about a dozen calls. I would like to do some showings this week.
Suggestions and input is greatly appreciated. Thank you all for your time and attention.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
