Common Real Estate Legal Services
Clients purchasing property often ask about what we can do for them to protect their interests. For real estate transactions, we:
- Review the purchase agreement and property descriptions to match them to the property you intend to purchase, ensuring that you get what you expect
- Decide which type of title is best for you to obtain from the seller and determine whether the seller has such a title
- Research and verify whether any liens or encumbrances prevent you from acquiring perfect title to the property
- Confirm that the price and terms of any mortgage or financing you seek from the bank or other sources are fair and correct under the law
- Verify that you are not at risk for any environmental liability claims, such as special hazards, removal of chemical waste, and CERCLA liability
- Set a closing date and a date to take possession of the property
- Monitor the legitimacy and speed of the escrow process
- Decide payment responsibilities and timing for paying certain taxes and special assessments
- Establish how long your purchase offer should be open for the seller to accept
Whatever the specific details of your matter, the real estate lawyers of Reppe Law Office PLLC provide you with skilled, personal attention so you can reach your goals.
