One of the primary responsibilities of a real estate attorney is to review the purchase contract.

Having a legal expert scrutinize the contract can prevent any unfavorable surprises down the road.

Title Search

A critical aspect of the home buying process is performing a title search. This is done to confirm that the property’s title is clear and free of any liens or legal disputes. A real estate attorney will conduct a thorough title search and address any issues that might jeopardize your ownership rights.

Handling Complex Paperwork

Let’s face it; real estate transactions involve an overwhelming amount of paperwork. From legal documents to disclosures and deeds, the paperwork can be daunting. A real estate attorney will help you navigate through the paperwork, ensuring that all necessary documents are completed accurately and on time.
