Contract and other related forms Free previews are available before you purchase Download your form in Word format South Carolina Contract for Deed Package Contains all the Contract for Deed forms you need form the process Only 5995 Best Value South Carolina Contract and Initial Forms Contract for Deed Form This is the form for creation of the contract for deed agreement between Seller and Purchaser This form allows the Seller and Purchaser to elect specific requirements concerning purchase price interest and payment terms Also fees related to insurance and taxes can be set in the direction of Seller or the Purchaser at their option before the signing of the agreement Real Estate Disclosure Statement This form is used when the property being transferred subject to the contract for deed contains a residence Sellers that wish or are required to disclose the residential property conditions should use this form to describe conditions as they exist at the time of the contract signing Seller Disclosure Notice for Lead Based Paint for Contract for Deed This form is used when the property being transferred subject to the contract for deed contains a residence Lead based paint could be present in less modern structures and pose a potentially lethal health hazard to children and sometimes adults A Seller wishing to inform Purchasers of the risks associated with lead paint may do so with this form Sellers Disclosure of Financial Terms for Contract for Deed This form is similar to the annual accounting statement in that it provides information regarding payment and financing terms of the contract for deed This form is used at the time of signing rather than as a yearly update of payments Accounting Seller Annual Accounting Statement for Contract for Deed This form is used by the Seller to provide an annual accounting of the payments made toward the contract for deed by the Purchaser This form provides a basic description of the payments made and the payments remaining due under the Agreement Buyers Request for Annual Accounting Statement Should a Purchaser desire an accounting statement be prepared by the Seller at any time during the term of the agreement this form would be used for that request In order to maintain reasonable use of this form it is discouraged for Purchasers to use this form more than once per year Assignment Assignment of Contract for Deed This form is used when the Seller wishes to transfer his or her rights under the contract for deed to another person or entity An example would be when the Sellers right to receive payments from the Buyer is transferred to a bank or similar establishment Notice of Assignment for Contract for Deed This form is provided to the Purchaser by the Seller when a Seller assignment has occurred This form notifies the Purchaser of the new Assignee and provides any new addresses where payments should be sent Default and Forfeiture General Notice of Default for Contract for Deed This is a general default notice that can be used by the Seller to notify Purchaser of being in default This form allows the Seller to notify the purchaser of the reason why the contract for deed is in default the performance required to cure the default and the Sellers planned remedy in case the Purchaser does not cure Notice of Default Past Due Payments Under Contract for Deed This is a notice of default provided by the Seller to the Purchaser when the circumstances of the default concern delinquent payments toward the purchase price of the contract for deed Final Notice of Default for Past Due Payments under Contract for Deed This is the same notice as the Notice of Default Past Due Payments but provides a more stern warning to Purchaser that if payment terms are not met by the given deadline then the Seller will resort to the available actions against the Seller to either cure the default or cancel the agreement and receive damages Notice of Default for Breach of Contract Terms Other than NonPayment This form is used by the Seller when Purchaser may not be in compliance with specific requirements of the contract for deed that are not related to payments This form is used to point out those terms of the contract that are not being met by the Purchaser and show the Purchaser what must be done in order to regain compliance Notice of Intent to Enforce Forfeiture Provisions Under Contract for Deed When a Seller wishes to enforce the forfeiture provisions of the contract for deed notice of the such intention should be provided to the Purchaser Since forfeiture often is the best remedy this form should be used in almost all cases where a default is imminent If you are unfamiliar with the remedy of forfeiture and the process of using this form an attorney consultation is recommended Final Notice of Forfeiture and Demand Buyer Vacate Premises Under Contract for Deed This form is used to notify the Purchaser that all grace periods to cure default have expired and Seller has now exercised his contractual right to pursue forfeiture of all past payments by the Purchaser and repossession of the property that was subject to the Agreement Sellers should be careful to follow any specific jurisdictional requirements regarding forfeiture before the use of this form Disclosures Real Estate Disclosure Statement This form is used when the property being transferred subject to the contract for deed contains a residence Sellers that wish or are required to disclose the residential property conditions should use this form to describe conditions as they exist at the time of the contract signing Seller Disclosure Notice for Lead Based Paint for Contract for Deed This form is used when the property being transferred subject to the contract for deed contains a residence Lead based paint could be present in less modern structures and pose a potentially lethal health hazard to children and sometimes adults A Seller wishing to inform Purchasers of the risks associated with lead paint may do so with this form Sellers Disclosure of Financial Terms for Contract for Deed This form is similar to the annual accounting statement in that it provides information regarding payment and financing terms of the contract for deed This form is used at the time of signing rather than as a yearly update of payments Misc Buyers Notice of Intent to Vacate and Surrender Premises Related to Contract for Deed This form is beneficial in the sense that it allows the Seller some notice of a Purchasers intent to vacate The Seller would still maintain his rights to sue for breach of the Agreement but sometimes the contract for deed Purchaser is judgment proof in that nothing would come out of a lawsuit even if won by the Seller With Purchasers that may fall into this risk category a Seller may benefit from the use of this form by the Purchaser Learn more about Contract for Deed by using our Contract for Deed Questionnaire South Carolina Contract for Deed Law

Beyond the Boogeyman Mary AltafferAP The sign of higher intelligence its said is the ability to hold opposite ideas in ones head and continue functioning Yet when considering Charles and David Koch the industrialist brothers and conservative activists liberals heads metaphorically explode before they can allow positive thoughts about the lefts biggest boogeymen They argue the Kochs are the biggest threat to American democracy outside of the Islamic State group powerful ideologues who want to create a taxfree corporate playground with nexttono government and who have the vast wealth 28 billion and counting to make it happen What tends to go unmentioned the owners of Koch Industries one of the worlds biggest conglomerates have kicked in an estimated 15 billion or so to an array of causes and institutions most liberals love public television medical research higher education environmental stewardship criminal justice reform and the arts Stung by a 2010 New Yorker article that framed them as villains the brothers are assertively putting out the good word about their good works OPINION The Koch Brothers Shake it Up David Koch seemed baffled that their politics overshadow their philanthropy In a September 2014 QandA with Crains a New Yorkbased business journal David Koch said he and his lowerprofile brother Charles simply want to use their vast fortune to make a better world and while hes at it shove back against liberals who shame his name The leftwing Democrats highly enjoy calling me an evil Koch brother and the philanthropic contributions I make in these many areas are tremendously worthy he said noting his contributions to the United Negro College Fund helped many AfricanAmerican students who couldnt otherwise afford it to come to these great historically black colleges Having his name on hospitals the theater housing the New York Metropolitan Ballet and countless boards and charities he says sends a message to the political groups in this country that dont like the conservative Republican businessman Yet historians and political analysts say the Kochs undeniable contribution to the public good the brothers have individually received Philanthropist of the Year awards from various charitable organizations and news they could spend as much as 1 billion on the 2016 presidential election are symptoms of a much larger problem Their influence on culture and politics are signs America has entered what could be called The Gilded Age 20 an era in which wealth inequality and an electoral system awash in money have given the superrich a disturbing amount of influence in American society Though David Koch says his family foundation spends far more on philanthropy the brothers have had an impact on the political landscape funding conservative presidential candidates like Wisconsin Gov Scott Walker pouring millions into rightleaning think tanks and antitax organizations like the Club for Growth and regularly meeting with other wealthy campaign contributors in exclusive retreats Critics say the brothers have fought environmental protection laws and pushed for legislation favorable to the petrochemical industry the source of their incredible wealth David Karpf a George Washington University professor who specializes in media and American culture says the Kochs are throwbacks to an era when business titans like Andrew Carnegie Leland Stanford and Cornelius Vanderbilt roamed the earth balancing political power with charitable giving Then Karpf says the industrialists shaped their legacies by giving huge chunks of their money away creating monuments to themselves in the process I dont think we should find it surprising that 21stcentury barons like the Kochs would follow suit Karpf says More importantly he says in an era of dwindling public funding and donations the Kochs massive contributions are mixed blessings for beneficiaries Although the Kochs have said their gifts are given with no strings attached Karpf says they are still influential Consider public television which has reportedly received more than 23 million from the Kochs in the last decade David Kochs affiliation with two of the Public Broadcast Systems flagship TV stations WNET in New York and Bostons WGBH has caused more than one headache for the station and PBS in general Critics say his presence led PBS to quash plans to air a 2012 documentary Citizen Koch which contends that the billionaire brothers and their allies are funding a political war against employees unions the Democrats most powerful allies Although PBS and WGBH have insisted Koch has no say in what the station decides to air upperlevel managers pulled the plug on Citizen Koch without a detailed explanation READ The Democrats AntiKoch Capitol Hill Show Goes On In a 2013 report on the controversy PBS ombudsman Michael Getler wrote that there was no evidence David Koch ordered them to kill the documentary indeed PBS in 2012 had aired a documentary about wealth inequality on Park Avenue that roughed up the Kochs and other wealthy residents of perhaps the nations most exclusive neighborhood Network officials probably censored themselves Getler writes because they were wary of the impact of another PBSdistributed film critical of a hugely wealthy and politically active trustee of two key PBS stations who had already donated 23 million to public broadcasting and was reportedly considering a new very large gift Moreover the unspoken influence of money especially big money can be thoughtprovoking inside organizations especially public ones that are always scrounging and live within a unique and uncertain fundraising environment he adds That clash underscores the fundamental problem with the Kochs philanthropy Karpf says Big money can cause big problems he says for organizations who must balance independence against the bottom line no one would care he argues if they had this wealth and no obvious political agenda Richard White a Stanford historian and Gilded Age expert says weve been here before at the turn of the last century industrial philanthropists made eyepopping donations to justify great fortune and an attempt to use that to control the direction of societal and cultural change Carnegie a major player in the railroad and steel industries used his wealth to sprinkle grand libraries stamped with his name in towns across the country White says the goal was to promote individual selfimprovement but not necessarily for his employees At the same time he attempted to increase American literacy White adds his workers are working 12 to 14 hours a day with little time to go read a book Like the Kochs Stanford Carnegie Andrew Mellon and most of the GIlded Age tycoons were primarily tough savvy businessmen who wanted to make lots of money West says Carnegie who backed tariffs to keep imported steel out of the US market wasnt above playing hardball with politicians or the workers who helped him build his fortune White says pointing to an 1892 strike at Homestead Steel a Carnegie plant in Pittsburgh When the Amalgamated Steelworkers union went on strike Carnegie used an iron fist to deal with it After hiring replacement workers he crushed the union revolt with the help the National Guard then he hiked production quotas dropped wages and boosted profits When you begin to see the sources of their money theres a reason people began to resent it even when they dole it out to charity White says Carnegie wasnt a widely admired man MORE The Attack Goes On Yet Carnegie is perhaps more likely to be admired these days for founding CarnegieMellon University in Pittsburgh and bankrolling Carnegie Hall perhaps the worlds most famous performingarts stage Ask a freshman at Stanford or Vanderbilt University to describe how or why their universities were created and theyll probably shrug Very few people have a clue who these people were White said Philanthropy does work to preserve their memories A little publicity doesnt hurt either After being caught flatfooted by the New Yorker article the Kochs created a rapidresponse PR team including setting up KochFactscom Theyre not shy about publicizing their affiliation with Van Jones a progressive activist and former Obama administration staffer on criminal justice reform And longtime critic Lawrence ODonnell host of The Last Word on leftleaning MSNBC gave the Kochs a personal salute in an emotional commentary on his program last year When he was critically injured in a headon car crash on the British Virgin Islands in April 2014 ODonnell was airlifted to New York then taken to the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan A longtime critic of the Kochs politics ODonnell was stunned when the first words I saw when I was rolled into the hospital was the name David H Koch yes that David Koch While he agrees with Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid who in a floor speech called the Kochs unAmerican for their rightwing activities David Koch has given 25 million to the hospital that put me and many other men women and children back together ODonnell says David Kochs money helped make their hospital experience a better one and that is a very very good thing That doesnt mean the Kochs cant be criticized for his politics ODonnell says it just means holding two ideas in mind at the same time You can be outraged by what the Koch brothers do with their money in politics he says and you can appreciate what they contribute to hospital and medical research and you can do that at the same time and still retain the ability to function Joseph P Williams Staff Writer Joseph P Williams is a news editor with US News World Report Email him at JWilliamsusne Read more Tags Charles Koch David Koch philanthropy campaign finance

A Right Not a Luxury A student walking at The University of Michigan in Ann Arbor Brett Ziegler for USNWR Fifty years ago this month President Lyndon B Johnson stood in the gymnasium of Texas State University his alma mater and signed a landmark piece of legislation that he said would swing open a new door for the young people of America But even today the door to higher education still remains closed for millions of students despite all the Higher Education Act did to level the playing field This law means that a high school senior anywhere in this great land of ours can apply to any college or any university in any of the 50 states and not be turned away because his family is poor he said Johnson who had lived in a tiny room in the university presidents garage while in college shaved and showered at the gym down the street and worked more than a dozen jobs to pay for tuition knew that narrative well READ Higher Education Costs Vary Widely State to State Sometimes I wondered what the next day would bring that could exceed the hardship of the day before he said The Higher Education Act was and still is a sweeping piece of legislation that includes the entire federal student loan system the signature tuition grant for lowincome students a slate of programs that help the most disadvantaged high school students prepare for and get into college ensures poor students can secure a campus job and more The law which cemented the federal governments role in helping students afford a postsecondary degree was an integral part of Johnsons War on Poverty And in addition to being a driver of equality Johnson also saw the law as an economic necessity in an increasingly technological and globalizing world It is a truism that education is no longer a luxury he continued Education in this day and age is a necessity To be sure the law Johnson signed opened the door to higher education to millions of students who wouldnt have been able to afford it were it not for the federal governments help I think the biggest legacy is a clear commitment that the federal government has a role in helping lower income people access and afford college says Ben Miller the senior director of postsecondary education at the Center for American Progress Even in the first Higher Education Act there was a commitment that higher education is something that should be subsidized and should be available not just to the wealthy The result has been a significant uptick in college attendance rates According to the National Center for Education Statistics 31 percent of lowincome high school graduates enrolled in a twoyear or fouryear college in 1975 the first year the government collected the data compared to 46 percent in 2013 The law also increased access for minority students In 1972 the first year the government collected data on race and college attendance 45 percent of black and Hispanic high school graduates enrolled in a twoyear or fouryear college compared to 57 percent of black students and 60 percent of Hispanic students in 2013 Compared to 50 years ago we definitely do a better job of helping low income students go to college says Miller Its inarguable An Ongoing Problem Fifty years later however Johnsons urgent narratives of affordability and economic necessity are still alive and well though the conversation has shifted since Nov 8 1965 Today there is a growing recognition that getting someone in the door of a postsecondary institution is not enough especially for lowincome students whose college graduation rates pale in comparison to their wealthier peers In 2013 77 percent of adults from families in the top income quartile earned at least a bachelors degree by age 24 up from 40 percent in 1970 according to a report from the University of Pennsylvanias Alliance for Higher Education and Democracy and the Pell Institute for the Study of Opportunity in Higher Education In contrast only 9 percent of adults from the lowest income bracket earned a bachelors degree in 2013 up from 6 percent in 1970 Weve significantly increased college enrollment among lowincome students but we have not solved the student success problem says Sandy Baum a senior fellow in the Income and Benefits Policy Center at the Urban Institute and a research professor at the George Washington University Graduate School of Education and Human Development RELATED Education Reforms Are Here to Stay Weve gotten a lot of people into college but not through college and thats a huge problem in terms of opportunities and outcomes she says The conversation around affordability has also changed Diminished state spending on public colleges and universities in the wake of the economic recession drove costs up and left students with oftenunmanageable amounts of student loan debt in total student debt amounts to about 12 trillion surpassing even credit card debt Now as Congress readies to overhaul the Higher Education Act which was last updated in 2008 policymakers and politicians mull myriad proposals that would preserve the legacy of Johnsons commitment to helping those in need of a leg up while also updating its most important policies to meet the needs of todays students and workforce The original purpose and mission of the act in terms of its goals for America I think are still just as important today as they were 50 years ago says Muriel Howard president of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities whose first leader Allan Ostar helped Johnsons advisers draft the law A New Path While the law has survived 50 years with only a few major changes as members of Congress look to reauthorize the law again in the near future some alterations are on the horizon Theres bipartisan agreement surrounding a slew of policies including simplifying the federal student aid application the types of loans available and repayment plans Theres also agreement that the current accreditation system needs updating so that students can use federal aid at alternative types of programs like computer science certificate programs In addition nearly everyone wants states to play a larger role in their public higher education system investing more money in the institutions incentivizing schools to cap tuition and being accountable for college graduation rates and debt levels There are of course partisan priorities as well Baum for one says students who tap Pell grants should be required to receive counseling about what the best colleges might be for them and also be required to continue making progress toward a degree in order to keep receiving the tuition assistance Handing people money and saying good luck has led to a lot of problems because people just dont know she says We have to stop giving people money to go to places we know wont serve them well and its not just about forprofit colleges The administration in particular has been eager to weed forprofit colleges from the higher education ecosystem While its put in place some regulations that make it difficult for colleges with low graduation rates and high student loan default rates to collect federal student aid it hasnt been as successful in curbing the forprofit sector as it would like Democrats would also like to see provisions included in the next reauthorization for victims of sexual assault Republicans meanwhile would prefer to reopen the federal student loan program to private lenders in an effort to make rates more competitive The House and Senate education committees have already held dozens of hearings on the topics And Sens Lamar Alexander a Republican from Tennessee and Patty Murray a Washington state Democrat the chairman and ranking member of the Senate education committee have promised to draft a bipartisan proposal But theres broad acknowledgement that a reauthorization of the law wont happen this year given the time constraints or next year given the presidential politics And then theres the funding problem for any new ideas Finding new money for great ideas will be difficult and that changes the dynamics of whats doable says CAPs Miller Even the ideas where theres bipartisan agreement theres bipartisan agreement on policy but not generating new money and that makes it harder for reform to move forward READ Student Scores in Reading and Math Drop With that in mind the Obama administration has already begun acting around the edges of law by using his executive authority to alter and expand policies and programs housed within it In the last few months its rolled out various experiments aimed at both making college more affordable and unbundling the traditional fouryear system to make it more accessible to nontraditional students who are the majority of collegegoers today Our mission as an agency is to make access to high quality degrees affordable particularly for people who dont have access Ted Mitchell undersecretary at the Education Department said Oct 29 at a higher education panel hosted by the State University of New York Were concerned the traditional focus on the 18 to 24yearold is out of step and also inappropriate In September it published a College Scorecard an online database that allows students and families to access information about colleges and universities like tuition costs average loan debt upon graduation and average salaries after graduation It also streamlined the application for federal student aid by allowing families to use IRS information from prior years when filling out the form In addition the White House recently announced plans to make Pell grants available to high school students taking college courses for credit and allow students to tap federal student loans for nontraditional postsecondary degrees and certificates like web design and coding boot camps among other things Were going to reinvent the next great higher education system Mitchell said We cant let the old one prevent us from building the new one We have to

Home Architecture Indonesia Stilt Houses Indonesia A visit to the kampung community that is next to Jakartas traditional port Building houses on stilts is one of the prime architectural designs of human culture and appear all through history all over the world Published on May 25 2015 by Wade Shepard Follow me on Twitter here The neighborhood surrounding Sunda Kelapa Jakartas traditional port is an area of kampung houses that grew out from the coast over the bay The houses were built together into a singular complex mass of wooden planks corrugated metal brick and plastic scrap that hover just above the waters surface on wooden stilts A complex network of covered tunnels weave through the community connecting the houses and tying everything together Many of the houses have two stories with the top floors being reached with a ladder It was all organic sprawl with one scrapmaterial house sprouting up from or being connected to the side of another But it was also a complete mature community There were docks for boats stores markets for selling foods and other goods a mosque and nearby was a school Beyond initial appearances this community was almost completely modern the only thing archaic about it was the architecture itself On the inside the homes were all connected with electricity and many had washing machines televisions refrigerators internet and every other amenity that you could expect in a modern concrete urban home in a more formal area on solid ground in Jakarta Although this area was by no means off the charts of modern tourism stragglers like myself sometimes wander over from the port or the nearby market it hadnt yet been invaded The people living in these hodgepodge superaquatic wooden alleyways did not seem irritated by my presence I could detect no territorial sentiments and nobody was selling anything to tourists except for one guy who carved little wooden ships by hand The people here would just say hello and smile They were generally willing to chat sometimes inviting me to sit down with them in the shade of the narrow Stilt homes make it possible for people to live in tidal areas where bodies of water ebb and flow given the time of the day allowing for a better use of land and closer access to aquatic resources On solid land stilt houses also have the benefit of inhibiting the entrance of vermin as well as providing shelter in the space beneath for livestock Stilt houses are not uncommon around the world Building homes on raised platforms is one of the general architectural designs of humanity and is not relegated to any particular place or any particular point in history In coastal areas on the banks of rivers or lakes or many other places where the ground surface is inconducive for placing a structure people have built homes on stilts There is evidence of this architectural adaption extending back to the Neolithic and Bronze ages and stilt homes have been built in locations as varied as Switzerland Scandinavia Greece the Kamchatka Peninsula West Africa These houses appear to be made of what amounts to scrap wood These traditional kampung houses are equipped with modern amenities
