Real Estate Closing Process

A Clear Path From Contract to Closing

Your real estate transaction starts with a thorough contract review. Every clause gets examined to make sure your interests are protected and the terms make sense for your situation. If there are problems, they get addressed before you sign anything.

Next comes the due diligence phase. Title searches reveal any liens, easements, or ownership issues that could affect your property. Surveys confirm boundary lines. Environmental assessments identify potential liability issues. Zoning compliance gets verified to ensure your intended use is permitted.

Finally, the closing process brings everything together. All documents get prepared and reviewed. Funds are coordinated between lenders, title companies, and all parties. Any last-minute issues get resolved quickly so your transaction closes on schedule. You walk away with clear title and complete confidence in your new property investment.

Even “simple” real estate transactions involve complex legal documents, title issues, and potential liabilities that aren’t obvious to most buyers and sellers. A purchase contract might look straightforward, but it contains contingencies, warranties, and obligations that could cost you thousands if not handled properly. Title problems like undisclosed liens, boundary disputes, or easement issues surface regularly in Nassau County transactions. An experienced real estate attorney spots these problems early and resolves them before they derail your closing or create expensive headaches later.
Real estate attorney fees in Salisbury typically range from $800 to $1,500 for residential transactions, depending on complexity. Commercial deals and transactions with complications cost more based on the time and expertise required. Most attorneys charge a flat fee for standard closings, so you know your costs upfront. When you consider that a single contract mistake or missed title issue could cost you thousands in repairs, delays, or legal problems, attorney fees are a smart investment in protecting your much larger property investment.
Real estate agents help you find properties and negotiate deals, but they can’t provide legal advice or handle complex legal issues that arise during transactions. Agents work on commission and want deals to close quickly. Attorneys work for you specifically, reviewing contracts with your legal interests in mind, not just getting to closing. When title problems surface, zoning issues arise, or contract disputes develop, agents refer you to attorneys anyway. Having legal representation from the start means problems get identified and resolved early, often preventing delays and additional costs.
Most residential closings in Nassau County take 30-45 days from contract signing to closing, assuming no major complications arise. Commercial transactions often take 60-90 days due to additional due diligence requirements. The timeline depends on factors like mortgage approval, title search results, property inspections, and any issues that need resolution. Having experienced legal representation helps keep your transaction on schedule by identifying potential delays early and coordinating with all parties involved. When problems do arise, quick legal resolution prevents small issues from becoming major delays.
Title problems are more common than most people realize, especially in Nassau County where properties have long ownership histories. Issues like unpaid liens, boundary disputes, easement problems, or estate matters need legal resolution before closing can proceed. An experienced real estate attorney knows how to resolve these issues efficiently, whether that means negotiating with lienholders, obtaining releases from previous owners, or working with title companies to clear defects. Most title problems can be resolved without killing the deal, but you need someone who knows the process and can act quickly.
Yes, we handle both residential and commercial real estate transactions throughout Salisbury and Nassau County. Residential work includes home purchases, sales, refinancing, and related disputes.

Commercial transactions involve additional complexities like zoning compliance, environmental assessments, lease reviews, and sophisticated financing arrangements.
