Our Real Estate Services

Mortgages

Applying for a mortgage can be complex, especially if you’ve never done it before. There are several factors to consider when applying for a loan for a commercial or residential property.

Some ignore whether their financial situation is appropriate or the importance of being up to date on loan payments, as they can commit the borrower to foreclosure.

Our firm can advise you on multiple matters related to mortgage loans in New Jersey.

Home inspection and deed

One of the important elements before buying a house is to find out the conditions of that property. This is done through a home inspection where possible defects in the home are discovered.

Likewise, it is essential to have the title deed and the quitclaim deed so that a grantor can legally transfer the property to a grantee. Our team of experts will be able to be with you in these procedures.

Property

Our New Jersey real estate attorney at Curbelo Law knows in depth the local laws for real estate transactions and procedures carried out in the state.

If you are in the process of obtaining the title of property, conducting a title search or insuring it, our firm can help you. In Garden State it is key that these aspects are met to finalize a transaction process.

Here are some of the property-related matters where we can help you:

What Do We Offer At Curbelo Law?

The firm has helped hundreds of individuals and/or businesses regardless of size, as no case is too big or too small for us. We are here to support individuals in different procedures:

Drafting and review of each contract of sale, lease and transfer of real estate.
Title search and title insurance.
Legal help in financing and refinancing.
Advice for the closing of mortgages.
Other real estate legal matters.

It is very important that you never sign a real estate purchase or sale agreement without first consulting with a specialist real estate attorney. Be aware that other individuals may discourage you from contacting an attorney.

For example, real estate agents may insist that you sign the contract immediately without having it reviewed by an attorney. If so, do not do it, talk to our NJ real estate attorney to determine if everything is in perfect order.

How Much Does A Real Estate Attorney In NJ Cost?

The cost of a New Jersey real estate attorney depends on the type of property, its geographic location, the quality of service, and the complexity of the case.

Typically, the fixed legal fees for a New Jersey real estate attorney are:

$1,800 for single family homes.
$2,500 for multi-family residences.

Please note the following about fees:

Fixed rates are usually more common than hourly rates. However, they can be filed, as it all depends on the lawyer and the case.
Attorneys can negotiate price or credit reductions due to unforeseen defects in the property.
Hiring an attorney can save time and energy when drafting contracts, forms, annexes, or researching local, state, and federal laws.

Do I Need A Real Estate Attorney In NJ?

The law does not enforce an attorney for the purchase or sale of property in New Jersey. However, it is more than recommended as the process can be complex. There are legal decisions that only a real estate attorney can make effectively.

Having a real estate attorney by your side can provide the individual with comprehensive legal advice regarding these issues. In addition, an attorney can protect all parties involved, negotiate the process, and help with litigation and complex matters.

Among the most common procedures that a lawyer can carry out for a buyer or seller in a real estate transaction we find the following:

Review the contract.
Negotiate inspection.
Examine financial documents.
Oversee title documentation.
Prepare documents for transfer.
Authorize the making of the best decisions for the tenant.
Attend the closing day and review all documents before signing.

Why Is It Important To Have A Real Estate Attorney?

Real estate transactions are complex and involve many parties and processes. Examples include real estate agents, homeowners associations (HOAs), and the attorneys themselves.

Having legal representation in real estate transactions is essential to protect rights during said transfer.
In addition, the representation of a lawyer is important since they determine exactly what must be carried out for a legal, fair and effective process.

The team at Curbelo Law has the experience and resources to make sure your dreams of being a brand new homeowner are fulfilled.

What Exactly Does A Real Estate Attorney Do?

Real estate attorneys primarily specialize in property-related matters. These matters include the purchase and sale of property, the performance of obligations, title issues, and disputes that may arise.

That said, a real estate attorney does the following:

Confirm that ownership is properly vested in the seller of the property.
Identify liens, litigation, unpaid loans, or other claims against the property and assist the client in settling them.
Discover writing conventions and restrictions and any breaks in the well-known “chain of title”.
Arrange title insurance.
Negotiate and review real estate contracts to determine how money will be allocated.
Prepare a settlement statement evidencing the buyer’s funds and the charges of the parties involved. This includes attorney fees, taxes, title search fees, and other elements.
Facilitate the closure in terms of the documents to be signed.
Confirm that both parties have fulfilled all their obligations regarding the contract and be able to help in case of litigation.

Similarly, a NJ real estate attorney can provide valuable advice to buyers and sellers to help them engage in a successful transaction.

Can The Buyer Back Out After Attorney Review in New Jersey?

New Jersey requires the attorney review clause. While buyers or sellers may not consult an attorney, they cannot waive the provision clause.

Both buyers and sellers can cancel their contract for any reason during the attorney’s review.
