Helping Our Clients Understand the Closing ProcessEvery real estate closing presents parties with interdependent rights and obligations, and every loan closing involves the commitment to important loan documentation containing varied financing terms. Only a lawyer with significant experience can be ready to address all the varied legal questions and issues that arise in the closing. At our firm, an attorney conducts the closing, not a paralegal or loan officer. About Property SurveysWhen purchasing a home, a survey of the property conducted by a Registered Land Surveyor is strongly recommended in order to uncover and avoid serious problems such as encroachments, restrictive covenant setback violations, boundary disputes, deed gaps and overlaps, and more. It should be considered an integral part of both our title examination and your due diligence investigation of the property. Although it may be a prudent investment, unless it is a specific requirement of your lender, the decision to invest in a survey is yours. We encourage our Buyers to consider it carefully and inform us promptly of their decision.
