Real Estate Closing Process

How Your Property Transaction Gets Handled

First, you bring us your contract or call before you sign anything. We review every term, explain what it means in plain English, and flag anything that needs negotiating. You know exactly what you’re agreeing to.

Next, we handle the title search and coordinate with all parties. We catch liens, easements, or other issues early and work to resolve them. You’re kept informed throughout the process, not left wondering what’s happening.

At closing, we’re there to review all final documents and ensure everything matches what was agreed upon. No last-minute surprises or terms that suddenly appeared. You walk away with clear title and complete confidence in your new property.

Everything You Need For Property Matters

You get comprehensive contract review before you sign, not just at closing when it’s too late to negotiate. Title examination that catches problems early. Coordination with lenders, real estate agents, and other attorneys to keep things moving.

For Long Beach properties, this includes reviewing flood zone designations, coastal building restrictions, and HOA requirements that affect your use of the property. We handle both residential and commercial transactions, from simple purchases to complex investment deals.

When disputes arise, you have an attorney who already knows your property and can resolve issues quickly. Whether it’s boundary disputes, contractor problems, or neighbor issues, you’re not starting from scratch with someone new.

New York requires attorney representation for real estate transactions, but even if it didn’t, Long Beach properties come with unique considerations you don’t want to handle alone. Coastal regulations, flood zone requirements, and local zoning laws can significantly impact your property use and value. A real estate attorney catches issues in contracts that could cost you thousands later, handles title problems before closing, and ensures you understand exactly what you’re buying. The cost of legal representation is minimal compared to the financial protection you receive.
Real estate attorney fees in Long Beach typically range from $800 to $1,500 for a standard residential transaction, depending on complexity. This covers contract review, title examination, closing coordination, and representation at closing. Complex transactions or those requiring additional negotiation may cost more. Most attorneys charge a flat fee for standard purchases, so you know the cost upfront. When you consider that legal fees represent less than 1% of most property purchases while protecting your entire investment, it’s one of the smartest expenses you’ll make.
A real estate attorney focuses specifically on property law and handles real estate transactions daily. We know current market practices, common contract issues, and local regulations that affect your property. General practice attorneys handle real estate occasionally alongside other legal matters. For Long Beach properties, you want someone familiar with coastal building codes, flood insurance requirements, and Nassau County procedures. Real estate attorneys also have established relationships with local title companies, lenders, and municipal offices, which helps your transaction move more efficiently.
Contact a real estate attorney before you sign any purchase contract, not after. Once you’ve signed, your negotiating power is limited. An attorney can review the contract terms, suggest modifications that protect your interests, and explain contingencies that give you exit options if problems arise. If you’re already under contract, contact an attorney immediately to begin the title search and review process. The earlier you involve legal counsel, the more options you have to address potential issues.
Title issues are common and usually resolvable with proper legal handling. We will identify the specific problem – whether it’s an outstanding lien, boundary dispute, or documentation error – and work to clear it before closing. Some issues require negotiation with the seller to resolve or reduce the purchase price. Others need coordination with previous owners or creditors. Most title problems can be fixed within the contract timeframe, but having an experienced real estate attorney ensures issues get resolved correctly and don’t resurface later.
Yes, we handle post-closing disputes including boundary disagreements, easement issues, contractor liens, and neighbor conflicts. In Long Beach, common disputes involve beach access rights, coastal erosion issues, and HOA conflicts. Having the same attorney who handled your closing means we already understand your property and can address problems more efficiently. Many property disputes can be resolved through negotiation rather than litigation, saving you time and money while protecting your property rights.
