What should I look for when choosing an attorney?
Experience, being able to work with lenders, brokers and attorneys to represent your best interest. I pride myself with the experience from over 40 years of work in the real estate law, from working at the Registry of Deeds, Title Exam work as well as day to day work as a closing attorney. You will also want an attorney in a timely fashion to your questions and or concerns, needs and request of your lender and working with all parties including the brokers to ensure a smooth closing.
How do attorneys bill for their services?
If I represent you as a buyer my fee would come at the time of closing including title fee for title examination, title insurance and if applicable a plot plan. The fee will be disclosed to you with the Loan estimate from the Lender.
If I represent you as a seller or a cash buyer I will disclosed the fees prior to starting any work with an email and or phone call so we are all on the same page.
