A real estate transaction can be the largest financial investment in one’s lifetime. Before you sign anything, you need to ensure that your investment is protected.
Our legal team offers a variety of real estate legal services. Our team at the Curry Law Firm can help you with short sales, joint sales, land trusts, and foreclosures to name a few. That’s in addition to routine sales or purchases.
Our role as a real estate attorney is to guide you through each transaction, ensuring that the agreements come together smoothly and all documentation is proper and complete. If you’re preparing a real estate transaction, here are just a few ways a lawyer can be vital.
Short Sales and Foreclosures
A short sale is when the estate is being sold at an amount that is less than what is owed on the mortgage. This is usually the last resort in order to prevent foreclosure for the seller. For the buyer, these so-called deals pose an increased risk. We can investigate any hidden problems not disclosed or insurance issues, and we can keep to reasonable timeframes.
Attorneys are skilled in defending you against foreclosure. We understand this complex process and will thoroughly review the lender’s records to research if their claims are valid as well as explore other options to avoid foreclosure. If selling is the answer then we will work tirelessly to get you the most for your property.
Reviewing Contracts
Contracts protect both sides of a real estate transaction, if they are not completed correctly it could lead to additional financial and legal implications now or in the future. Before you accept any contract, let a real estate attorney take a look and ensure you’re making the best choice for your future.
The ability of a real estate attorney to assist you with any of the many real estate deal types and contracts is valuable in many ways. We will ensure that estate contracts, disputes and litigation, land zoning issues, title searches, and many more property transactions are handled timely and professionally.
The documents and contracts that you are signing are legally binding in court. Hiring a lawyer gives you the peace of mind to ensure what you are committing to is secured now and for years to come, our specialized knowledge in these matters will do just that. As experienced lawyers, we know the local real estate laws to protect your investment.
Negotiating Any Real Estate Deals
Many states mandate that you obtain a real estate lawyer for your property transactions. We can negotiate on your behalf for any contract disputes, balance the interests of both parties in a joint sale, and resolve any lien issues you may encounter.
Negotiating any deal between two parties is a complicated matter, and it’s no different when it comes to real estate. We will represent your best interest while advising you legally when it comes to potentially risky transactions.
