Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Massachusetts
Petition to Partition
If a person has a signed and notarized document to obtain initial investment PLUS interest on the number years property was owned jointly, can that be thrown out as part of the Petition to Partition or would that still factor in to the dividing of the proceeds of the sale of the property?

Do you have a mortgage on the property? If not you need to lien the property before it is partitioned and sold

It sounds like it may be a factor. But one would need more data.
