What are the steps in a residential home sales transaction?
Working with an experienced attorney can help to avert any pitfalls or unnecessary complications, and I know how to address potential concerns before they become bigger issues. The following are the main steps involved in a home sales transaction
Offer to Purchase
The process begins with the buyer submitting an offer to purchase the property.
Purchase and Sale Agreement
Once the offer is accepted, a purchase and sale agreement is drafted and signed.
Pre-Closing Schedule & Activities
During the pre-closing phase, various activities such as inspections and appraisals take place.
Closing
Finally, the closing occurs where all necessary documents are signed and funds are exchanged.
What are the benefits of having an attorney review your real estate contract & negotiate agreements?
You might not be sure why hiring an attorney for a seemingly straightforward real estate transaction is necessary, but the negative consequences of not doing so can be significant. Terms may appear standard and honest, but poorly drafted and/or unfair clauses can result in the loss of escrow deposits, improper cost splitting or restrictions on property use, among other repercussions. An attorney can ensure your interests are properly protected and identify issues before litigation becomes necessary. I strongly advocate for my clients and will give your matter the time and attention it deserves.

What Happens At Closing?
Closing is the culmination of a real estate deal, and the point at which ownership is legally transferred to the buyer. The volume and complexity of documents you see at closing can be overwhelming, and I will thoroughly review each one to verify accuracy and confirm all legal requirements have been met.
Transfer and payment of escrow fees and closing costs
Signing of loan documents
Signing the ownership documents over to the buyer
Signing of the title papers
When can you seek an eviction?
An eviction is the legal process to remove a tenant and may be filed for the nonpayment of rent or another lease violation. Prior to filing an eviction action, the landlord must first end the tenancy by delivering a written Notice to Quit. If the notice period passes and the tenant is still in violation, an eviction action may then be filed requesting the tenant’s removal. If the landlord is successful, any removal must be executed by a constable or sheriff. Both sides have rights in these situations, and I will determine your best legal options.
