Real Estate Litigation/Transactions

If you are buying a home or commercial property, you will have to review many documents, such as an agreement of sale, seller's disclosure statement, property inspection reports, results of a title search, termite reports, and others.  The timing of these events is very critical.  If you miss a deadline, you may be forced to go through with a transaction which may be very much to your disadvantage.  This holds true for both the buyer and the seller.  It is important to have these documents reviewed by an attorney to advise you as to your obligations.

If you are selling a home or commercial property, you are responsible for providing adequate disclosure of the condition of the underlying property.  You also may be required to perform repairs and/or modifications to your property prior to the closing.  Missing a critical deadline may relieve the buyer of his or her obligation to go through with the transaction.  It is imperative that you have your obligations explained to you by an attorney to avoid having a transaction fail.  You also should be concerned about incurring a monetary obligation resulting from a misunderstanding of the terms of the sale.

If you are borrowing funds to purchase the residential or commercial real estate, chances are that your lender will require you to obtain title insurance.  Bob Lohr has an ownership interest in a title insurance agency which provides full service title insurance to all purchasers of both residential and commercial properties.  Be sure to ask Bob about these services.
