FAQs
Real estate questions we’re asked often
Do I need a lawyer for a private sale or assignment?
Yes. Private transactions and assignments carry unique risks. We confirm identities, ensure compliance with the agreement, check for liens or encumbrances, and protect your interests on closing.
Can documents be signed remotely?
In most cases, yes. We offer virtual signings and remote commissioning where permitted by law, with secure ID verification.
What if a title issue appears just before closing?
We assess materiality, options for correction or insurance, and coordinate with the other side to avoid delays where possible. If needed, we discuss amendments or escrow arrangements.
How far in advance should I engage a lawyer?
As early as possible—ideally before signing an agreement. Early review can surface issues and reduce last‑minute surprises.
