Buyers 

Buying real estate is a tremendous investment with no shortage of risks and potential pitfalls. Anyone buying real estate, whether a first time home buyer or a seasoned investor, should have an experienced real estate "team" assembled before they find the right property. In addition to your home inspector, real estate agent and lender, an experienced real estate attorney is an integral part of your real estate team.  From offer to closing, we take the time to explain your legal rights and obligations, advocate on your behalf, and ensure that the various documents accurately reflect your understanding of the deal.  We assist our Buyer clients with the following:

  • Review of offer to purchase
  • Review and negotiation of purchase and sale agreement to ensure the protection of your interests in the final contract between the parties
  • Track the mortgage contingency deadline (if applicable) in order to protect your deposit if the lender does not approve your loan
  • Assist with preparation for closing, including advice on title insurance and homestead protection
  • Review of deed for accuracy and advice on the different options for holding title to real estate
  • Attend closing with you to review and explain closing documents and help address any last minute issues that arise at the closing table
