Attorney Andrew Lieb Offers New CLE (Attorney Training) - Procuring Cause for Earning Real Estate Brokerage Commissions

Procuring Cause for Earning Real Estate Brokerage Commissions

As the housing market sours, there has been an uptick in homesellers refusing to pay their real estate brokers commissions. This has rendered the timing of when commission vests a hotly contested and litigated issue. In this course, you will learn the default rules for when commission vests, the meeting of the minds, and what options brokers and sellers have to change that default rule by supplanting the listing agreement with other triggers to commission. We will delve into how the default rule is modified when a real estate broker is cut out of a transaction as well as when a broker's breach of statutory / common law duties impacts their ability to claim commission. This is your one stop shop to learn how to litigate real estate brokerage law.

Registration is available here.

Foreclosure Statute of Limitations Laws Changed - No More Deaccelerations - More Dismissals Coming

In 2023, Foreclosure Law is changed forever.


Previously, a foreclosing plaintiff could sue whenever they wanted without worry about statute of limitations constraints so long as payments remained due under the loan. When they sued, they'd accelerate the loan and declare the entire amount due for purposes of the lawsuit. However, if something went wrong in the lawsuit, they'd deaccelerate the loan and then, start the process again without fear of the 6 year statute of limitations on foreclosure actions blocking their case and having the lien removed?

Simply, plaintiff had the unilateral authority to deaccelerate the loan. No more. 

Now, CPLR 203(h) clarifies "that upon accrual of a cause of action, the aggrieved party - meaning
the party with the right to commence an action and interpose a claim may not unilaterally extend its own time to assert its own claim."

This is a game changer - there are going to be a lot of cases dismissed on statute of limitations grounds moving forward in New York State.
