CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS
Before you can conduct any real estate transaction, you need to negotiate the terms of the contract of sale. While you might think that you can handle this process yourself, the fact of the matter is that real estate contracts can be incredibly complex, and it is easy to accidentally introduce potential problems that can cost you time and money. That is why you should speak to John Zaher, who can assist you with your real estate contract negotiations.
He will go through the terms of your contract step-by-step, ensuring that you understand all of your legal rights and responsibilities. He will also negotiate with the other side to ensure you get the best deal possible for your transaction. That way, you can focus on preparing for your sale, rather than worrying about potential legal issues.
TITLE SEARCHES
When people look for a home to purchase, they often focus on things like the price of the property, or the state of the building itself. However, it is often title defects, problems with the legal status of the property itself, that can result in bigger headaches in the long run. That is why John Zaher will help you perform a title search on your desired property.
A title search is an examination of the public records of a property to detect potential issues that may complicate the sale of your property. For example, he can determine if there are any outstanding mortgages or liens, or if there are any disputes over the boundaries or survey data. He can also help identify and correct errors in the public records, ensuring your sale goes as smoothly as possible.
PROPERTY DEFECTS
Most real estate contracts include terms that reflect certain obligations on the part of the seller and buyer, including the requirement that the property be inspected for potential defects. If they are detected too late, or if someone tries to hide them, it can result in serious complications for your transaction. That is why you should speak to John Zaher, who can help you handle any property defects that arise during your transaction.
He will work with you to identify any potential issues with the property you are looking to buy or sell, including the presence of out-of-date utilities, hazardous construction materials, or issues with drainage or ventilation. He will help you negotiate the legal and financial responsibilities for repairing these issues, minimizing the liability you must face. That way, you can focus on enjoying the benefits of your real estate transaction.
