WHY YOU NEED A REAL ESTATE LAWYER ????

The housing market is finally on the rebound, and you are ready to buy your dream house or maybe invest in commercial real estate. You’ve got a great real estate agent and maybe you even lined up a title company. Why should you bring a real estate lawyer into the mix? 

 If you are like most people, real estate is the biggest financial investment you will ever make. Understanding all the fine print in purchase of a property worth hundreds of thousands of dollars makes a big difference down the road. If there is even a sentence you don’t fully understand, yet you sign on the dotted line can lead to trouble later when you find out you own less than you thought you did or are responsible for something you didn’t expect.

            A Real Estate Lawyer like Reena Gulati can help explain the fine print so that you understand what you are signing completely and can sleep well at night. A real estate lawyer is an asset to any transference of property, whether it is a private residence, an estate, or a commercial property. Real estate laws vary from state to state so it is important if you purchase property in New York, and you are ready to close that you utilize a New York Closing Attorney.

            There are several potential issues in the buying and selling of property in which a real estate attorney can assist. The current occupant at the property can pose issues in the transition. The lease agreement could be written in a confusing or easily misconstrued manner. Various laws such as zoning, environmental, boundary lines etc must be evaluated before you sign anything. All of which, is understandable and can be handled by a well versed, experienced real estate lawyer. NYC is a complex metropolitan area; make sure you have someone behind you who is solely interested in protecting your investment.
