Real Estate

Residential

If you are buying or selling a home, chances are you already have a realtor to represent you. When you have signed a residential real estate contract and deposited earnest money, it is advisable you promptly seek the assistance of an effective attorney. Most real estate contracts provide a brief modification period for attorneys to negotiate and adjust contract provisions other than the selling price. Careful review of the contract terms is essential to avoid certain contingencies or commitments that create extraordinary risks. Since the purchase or sale of your home is a major transaction, you should hire an experienced Real Estate lawyer to assist you with all the important details including title aspects, mortgage origination and payoff, surveys, inspections and repairs, disclosure of known defects, real estate tax prorations, in addition to warranty analysis in new home construction contracts.
