EXAMPLES OF ACTIONS THE SELLER’S ATTORNEY PERFORMS IN A REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION

A real estate attorney, advocating for a seller, carefully reviews the executed contract and engages in negotiations to mitigate the seller’s legal risk and liability when responding to letters from the buyer’s attorney. These negotiations are strategically aimed at transferring the risk and liability from the buyer to the seller. Additionally, the attorney performs comprehensive title searches, resolves any title-related issues to facilitate the issuance of title policies at closing, drafts essential closing documents, negotiates and resolves disputes emerging during pre-closing walk-throughs, and oversees the entirety of the closing process.
