    Doesn't matter, I would still consult a lawyer. I don't like them either but you have to protect yourself if you are this suspicious of the guy. There will probablly be title issues to deal with.

    I just meant that if I have to talk to a lawyer and, in turn, pay a bunch of lawyer fees for advice, then I'll just keep the land and he can FRTFO.

    Yes

    They would have to approve a release of that partial from the existing mortgage and file it where the mortgage is filed.

    Hadn't thought of that but it makes sense since the collateral would technically change.

    And, depending on the lender, loan balance, appraised value, etc., they may require that part or all proceeds from the sale be applied to the mortgage.

    Now THAT would be interesting, but I think we have enough equity that it wouldn't be the case.....

    Shrap, you are an enigma wrapped in a conundrum, fill with a veritable surfeit of useful knowledge.

    As for the tax ramifications, you would be responsible for pro-rated property taxes on the value of the 'strip." On the federal/state side, you would have a capital gain/loss on the property that you would have to report.

    That is definitely the case with commercial mortgages, not sure with residential though.
