From the Attorney’s Desk by Jason Krautkramer, J.D. Eckert & Krautkramer, LLC 630 N 4th St., Wausau, WI 54403 eklawwi.com 715-842-0907 jason@eckertlawllc.com 169042 Addressing Potential Conflicts A strong co-ownership agreement should outline how to resolve disputes. A dispute resolution clause can require the co-owners to attempt mediation or arbitration to resolve disputes before resorting to contentious and costly litigation. The agreement can outline a process for one coowner to buy out the other’s share if the other owner wishes to exit the co-ownership arrangement. Key terms to include in a buyout provision are right of first refusal, valuation methods, and payment terms. Conditions for selling the property, such as requiring unanimous consent or establishing a process for handling disagreements about selling, are best addressed in a co-ownership agreement before acquiring a home. Addressing co-owned property in legal documents removes as much risk as possible from the homebuying equation. Schedule an appointment to learn more.
