Ten Questions to Ask Before You Sign
A condemnation settlement is signed once. This short guide is the ten questions a property owner should ask before signing, covering how the award is allocated, what the paperwork documents, and who is responsible for the tax outcome. It is for owners facing a taking, and for the attorneys, CPAs, and advisors working with them.
The ten questions
Bring these to your attorney, your CPA, and anyone else at the table before the settlement is final.
This guide is educational, not legal or tax advice and not a substitute for either. How each question applies depends on your specific facts, your settlement documents, and your state. Property owners should consult with their attorney, CPA, and qualified tax advisor regarding their specific situation.
