Real Estate
What does a real estate attorney actually do in New York?
In New York, an attorney handles the contract and the closing on both sides of a residential or commercial transaction — this is not a state where you can skip it. The work that matters happens before the closing table: reviewing the contract, resolving title issues, and catching the problems that are expensive to discover afterwards.
What this covers
- Residential purchases and sales
- Commercial purchases and sales
- Contract review and negotiation
- Title issues and clearance
- Closings
- Refinancing
When it is worth a call
- You have an accepted offer
- You have been sent a contract to sign
- A title report has come back with something on it
- You are refinancing
