Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida
Real Estate Tax
My brother needed my signature to refinance a mortgage and the agreement was that when the time came to sell the house, he would pay the capital gains. (My signature is solely on this loan.) The house has since been sold and he has received his $80,000 in capital gains. He has done nothing to pay the capital gain and this is now on my tax return. Are there any legal rights or documents I could have drawn up at this point to make him responsible for the capital gains as I am now I'm stuck with the tax bill.
