Real Estate Law

Real estate law governs the ownership of real property, its use and zoning, and the purchase, sale, and leasing of land and real estate. Our comprehensive real estate law practice deals with contracts, zoning and land use, landlord-tenant relationships, contracts, deeds and quiet title actions, and real property transactions. As your real estate attorneys, we advise you on state and federal laws governing your proposed real estate matters, negotiate and draft contracts, and provide aggressive representation in real estate litigation. Call Brown Paindiris & Scott, LLP today for a consultation and review of your legal needs.

Real Estate Law

Buying and selling real estate is more complicated than other types of transactions; to ensure a clean transfer of real property, there are specific steps that must be taken. The value of the land must be established, as well as its legal use. Our real estate attorneys review your goals for your real estate transactions, negotiate a fair price for purchase or sale, and draft the appropriate contracts necessary to complete them.

We complete due diligence on your behalf, including examining the title to ensure it’s clean and identifying any issues that may impact your proposed purchase or development, such as a property lien or designation as a historical property. Whether your needs are fairly straightforward, such as selling, leasing, or purchasing land or buildings, or you have more complex issues, such as petitioning the city or county for rezoning of a piece of property, we can handle it.

Our firm regularly reviews changes in local, state, and federal laws and advises you if your development or project will be impacted. We represent you in real estate disputes and litigation, whether you are the plaintiff or defendant. As your legal advisor, we tenaciously advocate for your best interests and protect your property rights.
