Our team of attorneys and support staff provide high-quality and responsive real estate legal services to real estate investors and real estate purchasers.
Negotiating a bank-owned foreclosure property requires extreme care and caution. The bank wants to limit their risk and often will not offer title insurance unless the buyer purchases the title insurance policy themselves. Most real estate investors will conduct a home inspection and review the condition of the property for significant unforeseen risks.
Real estate investors and real estate transactions enable real estate investors to terminate the real estate contract during the attorney review and home inspection period. In most cases, the bank will not make any repairs or make any allowances except in exceptional circumstances. Turning on the utilities and weatherizing the property are important to understand whether the water, gas, and electric work is functioning.
Most first-time home buyers and real estate purchasers do not understand the risks involved in purchasing real estate especially foreclosed property or REO properties. Our real estate attorneys have offices in the suburbs of Chicago such as Naperville, Shorewood, and Yorkville. Most real estate transactions involve substantial paperwork and understanding real estate contracts, which are complex and contain legalese are difficult if not impossible for most people.
Purchasing or selling real estate is a significant real estate transaction where one is making a substantial financial decision.
