FAQs on Real Estate Legal Services

The process begins with a review of the purchase and sale agreement, usually produced by a real estate agent. We then perform a review of the property's transaction history known as a title search to ensure there are no liens or disputes or other issues with the title. Once that is complete we draft the documents necessary to close the sale with the other side’s attorney. Finally we hold a closing where we review the documents and actually transfer the funds to make the purchase. Our attorneys at Mountain View Law oversee the entire transaction, ensuring compliance with Vermont laws and smooth handling from offer to closing.
Our expertise includes navigating zoning laws and land use regulations, which can be intensive in Vermont given our landmark land use law, Act 250. Whether you're developing property or facing restrictions, we provide strategic advice and representation before zoning boards and in negotiations with municipal bodies.
Title searching is crucial in real estate transactions as it details the property's history, revealing any potential issues with prior deeds or claims that could impact your ownership. Mountain View Law conducts comprehensive title searches to mitigate risks of future property disputes.
Yes, our attorneys are well-versed in both residential and commercial real estate matters. From drafting lease agreements to handling large-scale commercial acquisitions and sales, we tailor our services to meet your specific needs.
Earnest money acts as a good faith deposit from the buyer to the seller and is held in an escrow account until the closing. It's applied to the purchase price at closing. We ensure that all terms concerning earnest money are clearly outlined in the contract and strictly adhered to, protecting both parties involved.
Our attorneys are involved in every step of the closing process, from finalizing the purchase agreement to managing the exchange of funds. We address any last-minute negotiations and ensure that all legal documents are in order, facilitating a smooth transfer of ownership.
Protecting your rights during commercial lease negotiations involves understanding the terms and conditions of the lease agreement. Our attorneys review and negotiate leases to ensure favorable terms and prevent future legal issues, from rent clauses to termination rights.
Title insurance protects you from potential financial losses caused by defects in the title that were not discovered, or were undiscoverable during the initial title search. It covers various issues, such as unknown liens, disputes between prior owners, or documentation errors. Having title insurance ensures that your right to the property is defended against claims and legal fees.
