What Does a Real Estate Attorney Do?

Real estate lawyers assist individuals and organizations that are in the process of buying or selling real estate. In most cases, there are documents and contracts that require the assistance of an attorney to review for accuracy. There are unique laws at the Federal, state, and local level and one mistake could be costly.

That is why it is important to choose a local real estate lawyer that is familiar with Pennsylvania law. MBM Law will help you with your legal real estate transaction services.

When Do I Need a Real Estate Attorney?

A real estate attorney should be consulted if you are renting, purchasing, or selling real estate. Here are a few of the examples of when an MBM Law real estate lawyer should be consulted:
Home and property buyers should analyze and prepare contracts, consider escrow account difficulties, negotiate the terms of the closing, look out for foreclosures, and check that the purchase is in their best interests.

  • Property conflicts, damage to property, zoning concerns, challenges with renting and leasing, and mineral rights affect homeowners.
  • Issues with landlords and a revision of the rental agreement for tenants
  • Property Sellers: Contract review and writing, making sure that the terms of the sale are in the seller’s best interest, ensuring that the agreement is valid and enforceable, and leading any prospective legal actions as well as foreclosure processes.
