One difference between a cooperative estate and a condominium
estate is that
a. a condominium owner owns a unit of air space whereas the co-op
owner owns a proprietary lease.
b. a condominium sale adversely affects other unit owners.
c. the coop owner owns stock and a freehold real estate interest
whereas the condominium owner simply a proprietary lease.
d. the condominium owner owns the common elements and the
airspace whereas the coop owner only owns the apartment.
(a) a condominium owner owns a unit of air space whereas the co-op
owner owns a proprietary lease.
The owner of a condominium has a fee-simple ownership interest in
his/her unit and its air space.
Whereas, a co-op owner has a leasehold, not fee-simple, interest with
the property's corporation. Since the corporation owns an undivided
interest in the cooperative property, debts and financial obligations
apply to the property as a whole, not to individual units as in a
condominium.
,Who are the essential parties involved in an estate in trust?
a. Owner, trustor and lawyer.
b. Owner, trustor and trustee.
c. Trustee, title company, and beneficiary.
d. Trustor, trustee and beneficiary.
(d) Trustor, trustee and beneficiary.
In an estate in trust, a fee owner-- the grantor or trustor-- transfers legal
title to a fiduciary-- the trustee--who holds and manages the estate for
the benefit of another party, the beneficiary.
,A condominium owner enjoys a
a. share in an association that owns one's apartment.
b. tenancy in common interest in airspace and common areas of the
property.
c. fee simple ownership of the airspace in a unit and an undivided share
of the entire property's common areas.
d. fee simple ownership of a pro rata share of the entire property.
(c) fee simple ownership of the airspace in a unit and an undivided share
of the entire property's common areas.
A condominium is a hybrid form of ownership of multi-unit residential or
commercial properties. It combines ownership of a fee simple interest in
the airspace within a unit with ownership of an undivided share, as a
tenant in common, of the entire property's common elements, such as
lobbies, swimming pools, and hallways.
, With various types of junior liens, the order of payment priority is
generally established according to
a. the date of recordation.
b. what form of tax is in question.
c. the order of disbursement.
d. whether the lien was subordinated.
(a) the date of recordation.
Among junior liens, date of recording determines priority. The rule is: the
earlier the recording date of the lien, the higher its priority. For example,
if a judgment lien is recorded against a property on Friday, and a
mortgage lien is recorded on the following Tuesday, the judgment lien
has priority and must be satisfied in a foreclosure ahead of the
mortgage lien.
