Residental Real Estate Law

Lois Andrews | Jim Young


For most people, the purchase of residential real estate is the largest financial undertaking of their lives.Our real estate practitioners, including our real estate paralegals, have many years of experience in assisting clients in the purchase and sale of residential real estate.

Most people do not see a lawyer in regard to the purchase and sale of real estate until after they have already signed a contract.It is our strong preference that our clients give us an opportunity to review the contract that they intend to sign, so that we may comment upon the agreement prior to execution. We also suggest our clients allow us to comment on any proposed agreement with a real estate agent or broker before signing any such document.

Once a contract is signed by the parties, our experienced staff works as a team to represent your interests.

We can provide policies of title insurance to protect your interests in the event that the title to the real property in question proves defective in some way.

At times, we will represent the purchaser and also the mortgage company providing funds for the purchase, and will review the closing documents to see that they follow the terms of the Mortgage Commitment.

Finally, we attend the closing and (where we are representing a purchaser) will record the Deed and Mortgage instruments in the Land Records.

When we represent the Seller in a transaction, we work with the Seller and the Broker to ensure that commitments are obtained from all mortgage holders so that a closing can occur with proper assurances that mortgages and liens on the property being sold will be released.

Lois Andrews and Jim Young practice in the area of residential real estate, and we encourage you to speak to either of them with any questions you may have in this area.
