Real estate lawyers expertly advise the parties in a real estate transaction of the best decisions for protecting their interests. Here at Mecadon Law, we have decades of experience in preparing and reviewing home-sale contracts, landlord-tenant leases, and agreements governing zoning, subdivisions, and tax assessments.
We understand these issues can appear quite opaque to many people. That’s why we’re here. We help you understand the terms of your contract so you can proceed with peace of mind.
Pennsylvania does not require the parties in real estate transactions to retain a lawyer.
At the same time, it is always a good idea to speak to a lawyer during any real estate purchase or sale. That way, you can ensure you understand the terms of your contract and that the property you are purchasing is a good investment.
Here are some of the many areas in which a property lawyer can help you.
Buying Real Estate
If you’re buying a home or other real estate, we’ll help you to understand every detail in your sale agreement. We can also expertly perform a title search to ensure the property you’re purchasing is free of any tax liens or other defects that would cause financial problems for you later.
Selling Real Estate
Selling a home involves just as many details as buying one. We can help you ensure your sale contract is fully sound and perform the title search on your property.
Refinancing
It’s wise to retain a Pittston property attorney if you refinance your mortgage, since issues can arise that complicate the proceedings, such as foreclosure. We’ll help you navigate these complexities.
Title Insurance
Pennsylvania requires title insurance on all homes purchased with a mortgage. Title insurance protects both home buyers and mortgage lenders from financial costs associated with title issues after a sale, such as a claim against the property. We’ll lead the way in working through complications like this.
Landlord Matters
Mecadon Law is your landlord-tenant lawyer in Pittston. We review rental leases to ensure all parties are playing fairly and can step in when disputes arise between landlords and tenants.
Zoning and Subdivisions
Disputes surrounding land use can quickly get complicated in real estate. If you’re involved in a case of disputed zoning or subdivisions, call Mecadon Law. We’ll cut through the red tape to help all parties reach a fair deal.
Environmental Matters
The sale of a parcel of land with environmental contamination or pollution requires all parties to be aware of certain facts and regulations. We are experts in helping you work through the details.
Tax Appeals
New property assessments can significantly affect your annual property taxes. If you object to how your property has been assessed and want to appeal the final decision, call Mecadon Law. We’ll help you obtain a fair resolution.
