Our law firm recognizes that preparing to sell your home can be an exciting challenge. After you have spruced up your home and done the appropriate pricing research, one of the most important steps a seller will take is hiring a real estate attorney. A real estate attorney can be essential to the successful sale of your home, and will help ensure that your best interests are taken care of—and that you do not leave yourself exposed to unexpected problems and liabilities.

Our office will provide you with comprehensive representation and answer your questions throughout the process. Important areas of discussion will be:

Property Disclosures — We will discuss the Property Condition Disclosure Act with you, as well as other disclosure requirements that help to prevent unnecessary surprises at the time of contract or closing.

Contracts — You will want your attorney to prepare and to review any contracts you might sign or have signed to ensure that your interests are protected. You may also want your attorney to review any broker agreements before you sign them.

Escrow/Buyer's Deposits — Once a buyer has made an offer and put down a deposit, it is best for both parties if that deposit goes into an attorney's escrow account. This ensures that the good faith deposit is readily available for the closing date, and the money remains protected through the date of closing.

Closing — Your real estate attorney will be able to review all final contracts, payments and agreements between buyer and seller to ensure that the transfer is smooth and efficient, and provides a resolution to all open issues pertaining to your transaction.
