LANCIONE & LLOYD LAW OFFICE CO.

Real estate transactions are  one of the most common reasons  to speak to an attorney.  Most people have bought or sold real estate at some time in their lives.  In today's complex market,  an attorney can assist you  in making sure the property you are buying is free from liens by doing a title search.  This will tell you if the taxes are current and if the sellers have any liens on the property that have to be satisfied prior to the sale.

An attorney can also assist you in reviewing loan documents.  It is important when you are buying a home that you fully understand the paperwork that you are signing.  The mortgage market today is confusing and sometimes deceptive.  You must understand all of the terms of your loan, such as what your payments are today and what they could be if you have a variable rate mortgage.

An attorney can also draft purchase agreements, contracts for sale, and handle the closing of your transaction.
