Selecting A Realtor The importance of hiring a Realtor who is well-versed in both the tactical and the contractual considerations involved in selling your home, cannot be over-stated. BE INFORMED... Unique laws and considerations apply in the sale of real estate. Make sure you fully understand the legal obligations that flow from the representations in your contract before you sign. We strongly recommend that you consult with your lawyer if you have any uncertainty as to the meaning or effect of the clauses in your agreement. As always, this service is free for our clients. BUDGET WISELY Often sizable mortgage payout penalties can erode your hard-earned equity. Get sound advice in advance as to the available options and avoid unpleasant surprises. BE PREPARED We lawyers often say there’s no such thing as a typical house deal. Do you want a generalist to handle your transaction along with other areas of legal practice, or would you prefer a firm with systems in place designed to optimize the client experience for real estate transactions? BE A CLIENT, NOT A NUMBER: Systemization and efficiency in assisting clients in selling their home does not have to come at a cost in standards of service. Will your lawyer be your primary point-of-contact, or will an assistant? AND WHY NOT GET IT ALL, AND STILL BE FRUGAL Our Comprehensive Services Package for home sellers offers many important complimentary services which are up-charges or not even available at other firms.
