Real Estate

Numerous federal and state laws regulate the processes of acquiring, financing, developing, managing, constructing, leasing, and selling commercial and residential real property. Buying and selling real estate is generally more complicated than buying or selling other expensive goods, such as a car or boat: multiple people can have an interest in the same property, taxes are more complicated, and possession is not necessarily indicative of ownership.

The experienced real estate attorneys at Bruce D. Townsend can guide you through all aspects of your real estate transaction, including the following:

• Preparing or reviewing agreements of sale
• Obtaining title insurance
• Reviewing mortgage documents
• Obtaining real estate tax information
• Reviewing the title and the survey
• Preparation of all necessary legal documents, including the deed, mortgage, HUD1, and transfer tax forms as necessary
• Attending settlement

We also represent clients in a variety of other real estate matters:

• Residential and commercial lease agreements
• Landlord-tenant matters
• Zoning
