Legal Services
Never sign documents without reading them carefully or having an attorney looking them over.
When you buy or sell a home, you will sign your name hundreds of times throughout the sale process. After a while, signing gets tedious and it's easy to just sign without even reading them. This is a very bad idea. At LAER Realty Partners we believe that it is always a good idea to have an attorney represent you whether you are buying or selling a home. A great attorney is one who will diligently read through documents and explain them to you before signing. As well, it is the attorney who can point out red flags in all of the paperwork you are signing.
Here are some of the things great attorneys will do for you.
- Research property title for liens and encroachments
- Read and explain contracts to you
- Change wording to your benefit in contractual documents
- Negotiate extensions and releases
- Explain closing documents and fees
- Make sure you are reimbursed for water, oil, and taxes for any days you do not own the property
- Track down un-recorded lien discharges
- Ensure condo fees are paid up to date
- Review condo documents
- Negotiate issues with counsel on the other side of the transaction
- Assist with land use issues
- Help in property conversions
- Lot approvals and variances
- Landlord and tenant issues
