Residential Real Estate
Do I really need a real estate attorney?
We hear this all the time - especially because many states do not use a real estate attorney for a residential purchase - Talk about attorney review provisions, getting all agreements in writing, checking for appropriate tax credits, understanding what is reasonable to ask for with respect to repairs? Cold feet, unspection revealed too much, worried about the HOA
explain timeline/process
Do I really need an attorney that focuses on real estate? I have a friend that is a litigator - can they handle my purchase?
I made an "As-Is" offer that was accepted by Seller - does that really mean I can't ask for any repairs or credits?
I am buying from a friend and we are not using real estate agents - why would I need an attorney if we are in agreement to terms?
I am buying from a family member or friend that I trust - do I really need full title coverage?
