Services That We Provide For Our Clients

Our clients who are preparing to buy, sell or facilitate buy-sell transactions for any type of real estate include investors, individual property owners, investment groups and mortgage lenders. Our lawyers explain complex processes in plain English to prepare our clients to complete their buy-sell arrangements for commercial or residential properties.

Sometimes, our lawyers help clients complete conveyances for which there is no sale to complete. Inherited property often falls in this category. Older property owners sometimes want to convey ownership of properties in writing for their children or business partners. Purchases and sales of real properties require these and other steps:

  • The seller must describe the property precisely.
  • The buyer will want an attorney to conduct a title search to determine whether there are liens or other hindrances to a smooth transaction.
  • If a commercial property is the focus of the deal, an attorney should search for necessary licenses and other complications that could derail the transaction.
  • The seller must specify the buyer’s right to inspection before the closing.
  • The closing date and requirements should be clear.
  • A real estate lawyer should review the purchase-sale documents to detect any ambiguous language or problematic clauses.

In an exploratory initial consultation, we will narrow down your primary areas of concern. At the same time, we will make sure you understand and follow legal requirements for the purchase or sale of real estate in Texas.
