Bensenville Residential Real Estate Attorneys

DuPage County Real Estate Lawyers Representing Buyers and Sellers in Residential Transactions

When buying or selling a home, a person will need to address multiple types of issues. Buyers will need to obtain financing, and they may also need to understand any additional expenses they will need to pay, such as closing costs, property taxes, or homeowner's association fees. Sellers will need to address any issues that may affect their ability to transfer ownership of property while also determining how they will handle repairs or resolve any other concerns that buyers may have. To ensure that a transaction can be completed successfully, buyers and sellers will want to work with an experienced real estate attorney.

Legal Help With Residential Real Estate Transactions

Home buyers and sellers will need to make sure they are taking the correct steps to protect their interests and that they will be able to complete a transaction as efficiently as possible. We can provide legal help throughout all stages of a residential transaction, addressing matters such as:

• Purchase agreements - After a buyer's offer on a home is accepted by the seller, the parties will enter into a purchase contract. We can help negotiate the terms of a contract, ensuring that it fully details the responsibilities of each party and the dates of different milestones during the transaction. We can help address any contingencies that may apply to a buyer or seller, such as terms that ensure that a buyer will be able to obtain a home mortgage or sell their current home before completing the transaction.
• Title search - Sellers will need to identify and address any issues that may prevent them from transferring ownership of a home to a buyer. We can review public records to determine whether issues such as liens against a property or ownership claims by a former owner's heirs may affect a transaction. We can then help resolve these issues and clear any encumbrances that may prevent a transaction from proceeding.
• Home inspections - A buyer may perform an inspection of a home to identify any repairs that may need to be made or safety issues that may need to be addressed. We can work with buyers and sellers to determine how any issues uncovered during an inspection will be resolved.
• Home closing - On the date of closing, buyers and sellers will sign multiple documents that will officially transfer ownership of the home and establish financing agreements through a mortgage lender. We make sure our clients fully understand the documents they are signing, the closing costs they will need to pay, and any other issues that will affect them as they complete their transaction.
