Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Pennsylvania

Response by Attorney Michael Kotik. I would suggest that any and all agreements dealing with any and all real estate be in writing. It is important to do so to protect yourself from any liability.

The statute of frauds was enacted in April of 1775. Leases for more than a year and any contract for the transfer of land need to be in writing. That said you should put any lease in writing. For the same reasons given above. Chintz now pay big later.
