How are Broken Arrow, Oklahoma real estate matters resolved in court!

There are different types of cases and courts in which a Broken Arrow, OK real estate related matter can be heard. When it comes to real estate, there could be issues related to property lines, ownership, title problems, failure to declare previous issues in a disclosure statement or much more. Here are several types of issues that could arise and how they are generally handled.

In small claims court, the case is usually over things with a value of less than $6000. Many times in small claims court people are unrepresented when it comes to a small dispute over less than $6000 or disputes over a renter and landlord. Cases like these are usually heard by the judge within 30 days and are decided the day of the court hearing. For an eviction, you give notice to a tenant and have it posted. If they don't respond or pay you the debt they owe, you file a petition at the courthouse with appropriate information. It is filed and you pay a small fee and they send a notice out. You are usually given a court date within 30 days. If you are a renter and the landlord's property (where you live) is involved in a foreclosure, there are several things that can happen. Sometimes even if you are in the right, you may still lose any prepaid money.
