Buying and selling real estate is one of the most important and rewarding situations but also one of the most complicated decisions that one can enter, usually with significant financial implications. In any real estate deal, both Buyer and Seller must review multiple complex documents, including legally binding papers, requiring signatures. As you enter any deal of primary concern beyond the actual real estate itself is to ask; who is looking out for you? Who is explaining your responsibilities as you sign legal documents?

Real estate sales professionals can provide sales services but it is against the law for them to provide legal advice. While they are proficient in their field of sales, they are not equipped to guide in the particularities of contract law. Like any sales profession they are motivated by a commission. The same can be said about any non attorneys in the transaction (lenders,inspectors). While they may be well versed in their field, they cannot render legal advice, your legal responsibilities are not their concern.

Our attorneys at Stanley and Stanley can help.
