SAMPLE ESSAYS
(ETHICS QUESTION.)
Adam is a local attorney who handles a variety of matters including some residential
real estate closings.
Last year he became a licensed real estate broker to help
supplement his income.
Adam added ‘licensed real estate broker’ to his lawyer
business cards and hung a second sign on the door next to his law office sign that
reads ‘Adam & Zach Real Estate Brokers’. Zach dropped out of law school and is
Adam’s best friend who uses Adam’s office during the week ends as a broker. Adam
has a small office in a neighborhood shopping plaza which consists of two rooms: one
room with a receptionist desk and his work desk and another room that is used as a
conference room. The receptionist answers the phone as “Adam’s Law Office”. One
day, Sally called Adam’s office and met with him in his office to have him list her house
for sale. During a subsequent meeting in Sally’s house she tells Adam that she wants
to sell the house as soon as possible because ‘no one knows this but my aunt recently
committed suicide in the house’. Adam takes the house listing and is not able to sell the
house. After six months Sally decides to use a friend in the neighborhood to list her
house instead of Adam. Two months later Beth meets Adam in his office and hires
Adam to help her find a house. Adam and Beth review a listing sheet that includes
Sally’s house. Adam tells Beth not to bother looking at Sally’s house because a suicide
occurred there. Undeterred, Beth and Adam visit Sally’s house and Beth asks Sally if
she would accept half the listing price because of the suicide. Sally yells at Adam for
telling her secret and tells him he is the worst lawyer she has ever met and is going to
report him to. The Florida Bar for ethics violations. Please discuss the following
potential ethics issues: (a) dual profession; (b) conflict of interest; and (c)

Harry Smyth owns two contiguous parcels of land. The rear parcel is located on the St.
John River in Putnam County, Florida. It contains a two story, 8 unit fishing lodge and 8
boat docks located on the river. The front parcel contains a single family residence
where Harry has lived for 10 years. It is not on the river but is on a public road. Access
to the rear parcel is over the front parcel. Harry bought all the land years ago and paid
very little for it. The docks and the units in the lodge are new construction that were
completed in February 2011. The units and docks are leased on a weekly or monthly
basis. Harry has decided to sell both parcels and move to Southwest Florida where he
believes the fishing is better and the rates he can charge will be higher. He plans to use
the proceeds of the sale to buy a new house and another fishing lodge and has
received a letter of intent from Renovator LLC for a price that he cannot refuse. Harry
has not yet accepted it. Harry is willing to provide the requested short term seller
financing that is called for in the offer, but he wants to be sure that his interests are
protected and he wants to minimize his taxes. Harry wants to be protected, but he does
not want to lose the sale as the price is just too good.

Letter of Intent
May 17, 2012
Mr. Harry Smyth
Palatka, Florida
Re: Your Two Parcels of Land and Improvements
Dear Mr. Smyth:
We hereby offer to purchase your two parcels of land located on Putnam County,
Florida as depicted on the sketch in Exhibit A (the Property). We will purchase the
Front Parcel for a price of $400,000 and the Rear Parcel for a price of $2,000,000. We
will pay cash for the Front Parcel. The purchase price of the Rear Parcel will be paid by
$1,500,000 in cash at closing. The balance of the purchase price for the Rear Parcel
will be evidenced by a purchase money note for $500,000 and be secured by a
purchase money second mortgage that encumbers the Rear Parcel. The note will bear
interest at 6% per annum and be payable in equal monthly installments of interest and
principal calculated to amortize the debt over a 20 year term. The note will mature 5
years after the closing date. The purchase money mortgage will be subordinated to an
institutional mortgage in the amount of $2,650,000 that we will obtain. A portion of this
loan will be used to construct a new 8 unit lodge on the Front Parcel. The loan will bear
interest at 4% per annum and be payable in equal monthly installments of principal and
interest over a 20 year amortization period when it will mature. It will encumber both the
Front and Real Parcels.
(Continued on Next Page)

At closing you will convey both parcels to us by warranty deed and you will
assign the sovereignty lands lease respecting the docks. You will convey all personal
property and equipment located in the lodge on the Rear Parcel by a bill of sale. Rent
under all leases of the lodge units and docks will be prorated at closing and all security
deposits will be transferred to us. It is our understanding that all 8 lodge units are
leased through July 31, 2012 and that all docks are leased through December 31, 2012.
You will provide us with current estoppel letters from all tenants at closing that
will confirm the status of each lease and all payments there under and that the term of
each lease does not extend more than two months after the closing date. All taxes,
assessments, rents under the sovereignty land lease will also be prorated as of the
closing. We will bear the cost of transactional taxes, expenses, and fees on our own
financing and any sales taxes on the personal property and equipment. You will bear
the documentary stamps on the deed to us. We will split the documentary stamps and
intangible taxes on the purchase money financing. You will pay any real estate
brokerage commission that is due on this sale.
You will provide us with, and pay for, a commitment for title insurance on both
parcels in the amount of the purchase price of each and a title policy following the
closing. The condition of title reflected thereby must be entirely acceptable to us.
We are to have a 30 day period of due diligence during which we may inspect the
property, the improvements thereon, the personal property and equipment, your lease,
rental history and the costs of operation and maintenance of the property and arrange
financing.
We will enter into a formal purchase contract with each other prepared by our
attorney within 5 business days following your acceptance of this letter of intent. At that
time we will make an earnest money deposit of $100,000 which will be held by our
attorney in escrow. The formal purchase contract will contain the terms and conditions
that are customary in real estate sales in Putnam County, Florida. It will provide for a
closing on July 15, 2012 at which time you will deliver exclusive possession of the
property to us.
This offer is available for your acceptance until 5:00 p.m. May 20, 2012. Please
signify your acceptance by signing a copy of this letter below and returning it to us.
Very truly yours,
Rennovator, LLC

CONTRACT ANALYSIS AND HUD-1 SETTLEMENT STATEMENT
QUESTION
Review the attached Residential Contract For Sale and Purchase and partially
completed HUD-1 Closing Statement. The transaction is a short sale with a new
mortgage provided by a bank and a second mortgage provided by Joe, the current short
sale private lender. The contract has been properly executed by all parties and all
contract contingencies have been satisfied. The new first mortgage loan is to be made
to Betty by Gulf Winds Bank on the terms provided. In order to guard against Betty not
paying the Gulf Winds mortgage, Joe requires that his new second mortgage be
structured and secured as a wrap around note and mortgage inclusive of the debt to
Gulf Winds and the debt owed to himself.
Joe agrees to absorb the cost of
documentary stamps and intangible taxes on his loan documents. Gulf Winds Bank
approves of the wrap around note and mortgage to Joe. You are representing Betty
and are providing her and Gulf Winds Bank with title insurance and acting as closing
agent. She came to you to close the transaction with the contract fully executed and all
financing conditions approved and satisfied.
Your paralegal has prepared the HUD-1, but it is only partly completed because your
paralegal is uncertain how to handle certain aspects of this transaction.
The GFE
reflects the premium for the owner's policy of title of insurance, the documentary stamps
for the deed and mortgages, origination charges, escrows, and all other typical items.
The amounts for these charges on the GFE are accurately reflected on page 3 of the
partially completed HUD-1.

attorney's fees and costs incurred, to be paid pursuant to court order out of the escrowed funds or equivalent.
Agent shall not be liable to any party or person for mis-delivery of any escrowed items, unless such mis-delivery is

or termination of this Contract.
14. PROFESSIONAL ADVICE; BROKER LIABILITY: Broker advises Buyer and Seller to verify Property condition,
square footage, and all other facts and representations made pursuant to this Contract and to consult appropriate
