Buyout of partner on title in Texas

Buyout of partner on title in Texas

Hi All,

I have a question regarding removing a partners interest on a property. One of the partners wants out of the recently purchased property that was purchased by 50/50 interest. The first partner will be buying out the second partners interest. Would this be considered a typical real estate transaction where a TREC contract is used to buy the interest of the second party or can a grant deed be given to the 1st partner to convey the 2nd partners interest. What would be the most effective, efficient way of doing this transaction? Consideration will be given for the conveyance of partners interest. Your comments are greatly appreciated.

    Have Partner 2 deed his interest to Partner 3 via special warranty deed in exchange for the consideration.

    I'm sure you already knew this but don't forget to record the deed ASAP.

    @Theodore Rivera, Don't know if Partner 2 knows or not but Partner 2 can actually perform a tax deferred exchange on the sale of his TIC interest in the property. If the second partner is concerned about consummating due to taxes or if the consideration has been inflated to compensate for taxes due to the seller this might be a way to sweeten the pot for all.
