REAL ESTATE LAW

If you decide to sell your house without the assistance of a real estate agent, there are various documents you will need to properly complete the sale. A detailed purchase agreement, along with other documents required by law, all need to be prepared and provided to the potential buyer.  

If you are the buyer in a real estate transaction, you need to remember that the seller’s attorney is acting only for the seller, and is not concerned with protecting your rights as a buyer in the contract. It is therefore essential that you have the proposed purchase agreement reviewed by an attorney on your behalf before you sign it. While the contract may appear complete to you, unless you know exactly what you are looking for and understand the meaning of each and every legal term, you need to have the contract reviewed on your behalf.

If you are a new landlord, it is essential that you get proper assistance when preparing your first lease. An improperly worded lease often results in unintended consequences detrimental to the owner of the property. Our office has prepared hundreds of leases, and knows exactly what to include or look for when preparing or reviewing a lease agreement.
