While not legally required, having a real estate attorney in New York is essential for protecting your investment. NYC property law is complex, with unique regulations around co-ops, condos, rent stabilization, and zoning that don’t exist elsewhere. Real estate contracts contain numerous clauses that can significantly impact your rights and obligations. An experienced attorney reviews these documents, negotiates better terms, and ensures proper title transfer. The cost of legal representation is minimal compared to the potential financial consequences of legal mistakes.
Title issues are more common than most buyers realize, but they’re usually resolvable with proper legal guidance. We review the title search results and identify any liens, judgments, or ownership disputes that need resolution. Common issues include unpaid taxes, contractor liens, or boundary disputes. We work with title companies and other parties to clear these issues before closing. If problems can’t be resolved, we advise you on whether to proceed, renegotiate terms, or withdraw from the transaction. Our goal is ensuring you receive clear, marketable title to your property.
Most residential closings in Queens take 45 to 60 days from contract signing to closing, though this varies based on financing, title issues, and other factors. Commercial transactions often take longer due to additional due diligence requirements. We work to expedite the process by staying on top of all required documents and coordinating with all parties involved. If delays occur, we communicate immediately about the cause and expected resolution timeline. Our experience with local procedures and relationships with title companies and lenders often helps avoid common delays.
Yes, we regularly help clients navigate troubled real estate transactions. Whether it’s contract disputes, financing issues, title problems, or seller disclosure issues, we work to find solutions that protect your interests. Sometimes this means renegotiating terms, extending deadlines, or pursuing legal remedies for contract breaches. We evaluate your specific situation, explain your options clearly, and recommend the best course of action. Many deals that seem dead can be revived with proper legal intervention, while others are better abandoned to avoid future problems.
Commercial real estate transactions involve additional complexity including zoning compliance, environmental assessments, lease reviews, and more extensive due diligence requirements. Commercial contracts typically include more negotiable terms and require deeper analysis of financial projections and market conditions. Residential transactions focus more on title issues, financing coordination, and standard contract terms. Both require thorough legal review, but commercial deals often involve multiple parties, longer timelines, and more complex legal structures. We handle both types of transactions and adjust our approach based on the specific requirements and risks involved.
