Re: Selling Land By Owner
What you are proposing to do seems to violate the California real-estate licensing laws which require that anyone who sells real estate must be licensed as a broker or agent. Although there are exceptions for partners in businesses, corporate officers, attorneys, trustees, etc., I am not aware that family members can act as agents without being licensed. I suggest you work together with a licensed real estate professional.
