Why Choose Us
It's an important part of our mission to help keep your deals safe and away from legal snags that can lead to legal trouble.
Taking simple, but very important steps can help you avoid some of the most common reasons we see that get well-meaning, (brand new to seasoned), real estate professionals into unwanted, and unforeseen legal trouble, nasty legal claims, and getting sued for what could have easily been avoided.
If you remember the real estate market during the recession, it was a market that many realtors had never experienced. One of the nuances that was introduced to us was the short sale/loan modification. At this time there were many things agents would tell clients that turned out to be less than true and they were subsequently sued by their clients.
For example, agents would tell their client that they had to go delinquent on their mortgage before they could be approved for a short sale (simply not the case).
Since then we are often asked by agents what they can do in order to best protect themselves. Because of what is at stake in a real estate transaction we recommend that agents have a real estate attorney on retainer in order to best protect them when (usually not "if") a legal situation arises.
When we're invited to present at seminars on this subject we always go over some things that agents should always be careful of and protect themselves, that’s why we offer FREE Consultations and Evaluations.
If you’ve got a legal question or you have a situation with a current deal that you’re not sure about, give us a call or Schedule Your FREE Consultation and let’s discuss your options.
