When do you need
a real estate
attorney?
Every real estate transaction combines contract law, land registry procedures, tax, and often construction and administrative law aspects. Errors in the preparation of documentation or in its integration only become apparent during registration in the land registry, upon enforcement of the purchase price, or during a subsequent sale. A proper attorney helps protect both the purchase price and the property itself, addresses legal defects, and minimizes the risk of a dispute with neighbors, the municipality, or the bank.
