Real Estate & General Business Matters
For most folks, their home is their biggest asset. Because of this, it is essential to make sure you actually own your home and have clear title – both (1) when you are buying it, and (2) when you finally get the loan paid off. As experienced real estate attornies, we understand the immense value of home ownership. With this in mind, we offer a variety of real estate-focused services designed to protect your property.
Real Estate Transactions
We firmly believe that having a knowledgeable real estate attorney on your side is worth every penny. It is the best money you will ever spend on legal services. Get your property title RIGHT. Bite the bullet: make sure it's right BEFORE YOU BUY. When a Title Company specifies issues to be fixed in their title commitment, we review the commitment to correct any issues and send documents to be signed at the title company closing. Independently, we review official courthouse records to see if there are any issues. When an issue does come up on a real estate sale, we find the problem and fix it – it's that simple.
We prepare deeds, seller-financing packages (Deed, Deed of Trust and Note), real estate contracts, and powers of attorney. We will not prepare a Contract For Deed (don't even ask!) as they are viewed by the Legislature as highly problematic and inadvisable. We handle liens and the lien removal process, homeowners association matters, dividing property among co-owners (partition cases), and other related land concerns. We do whatever it takes to protect what is likely to be the most important investment you will ever make for your family. We make sure problems don't crop up down the line that might cause you to lose your home.
