Plus generally no real Chief,,,all drones,,,all scattered across the globe and know zip about the farm other than they get a check.IF you are 'creating' fractional interest of unrelated parties,,to be avoided unless YOU want to be a full time argument settlement biz. find a NEW way!!!!

The LLC and the owner would be held liable for the settlement would could be exorbitant.

The professional roofing companies that had experience working with insurance companies we're completely fine working this way but their price was about 20% over the insurance settlement amount.The second option was to just pay the roofers ourselves and tell Wells Fargo I completed the work and then they signed over the check.  

Consider a conventional settlement where a seller grants the conveyance deed.

Settlement costs are part of any deal, belly up and pay it, buyer, seller or finance it, but it needs to be paid.

Nothing ruins your rep with listing agents faster than getting properties under contract and NOT making it to settlement.

Thats why I have insurance, because without it I would be SOl, but because I had it, I got a settlement to pay for a new car.

It sounds like your ready to just get it over with though, and I know most highly successful people believe in settlements instead of gambling at trial.

With a cash deal it sounds like property disclosures/notices, and maybe the settlement sheet, are emailed for signature before a notary.  

One roof needs replaced (we are waiting on the settlement award from a class action for defective shingles), however the other is 14 months old ... so the roofer will be by tomorrow to see what went terribly wrong and to have the discussion about who is going to cover the repair of the 14' x 23' ceiling below (not to mention the insulation, etc).
