Real Estate & Litigation
THE RYBERG LAW OFFICES HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE LITIGATION AND ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES SINCE 1977. THE OFFICE EXPERIENCE RANGES FROM HANDLING;
COMMERCIAL
OUR OFFICES HAS EXPERIENC IN MID TO SMALL COMMERCIAL BUSINESS LEASES, AND ALSO PRIME SPACE OFFICE ARRANGEMENTS. IT HAS NOT REPRESENTED MEGA CORPORATE LEASE ARRANGEMENTS, BUT INSTEAD, CONCENTRATES ON THE MIDDLE COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. THIS INCLUDES BOTH THE LEASE AND THE SALE/PURCHASE ASPECT OF MID COMMERCIAL LEASING.
REAL ESTATE BUYERS
NO PERSON SHOULD PURCHASE A PIECE OF REAL ESTATE WITHOUT ( AT A MINIMUM) HAVING AN ATTORNEY REVIEW THE TITLE SEARCH AND DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. MANY LARGER REAL ESTATE COMPANIES ARE AFFILIATED WITH TITLE COMPANIES THAT MAY TEND TO OVERLOOK (INSURE OVER) A TITLE ISSUE IN ORDER TO FACILITATE A CLOSING AND REAL ESTATE COMMISSION.
MANY A BUYER FINDS OUT LATER THAT THEY DID NOT REALLY LOOK AT THE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. IT CONTAINS MATERIAL REPRESENTATIONS THAT EVERY BUYER MUST NOT GLOSS OVER.
THE RYBERG LAW OFFICE HAS HAD TO FILE CASES WHEN THE BUYER FINDS OUT THAT THERE WERE ISSUES ABOUT THE LOT LINE, ISSUES ABOUT MOLD OR WATER DAMAGE; ISSUES ABOUT CITY EASEMENTS; AND MANY MORE.
SELLERS
SELLERS OF REAL ESTATE HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE ISSUES. EVEN THOUGH THE TITLE BINDER IS READY WITHIN TWO WEEKS, THE SELLER IS OFTEN NOT TOLD OF TITLE PROBLEMS UNTIL THE CLOSING DATE, AND THEN ARE PRESSURED INTO SIGNING DOCUMENTS THAT MAY OR NOT BE IN THEIR BEST INTEREST. THEY MAY BE TOLD TO SIGN OR THE CLOSING WILL HAVE TO BE PUT OFF. THESE PRESSURES ARE TOTALLY UNNECESSARY AND A SELLER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM AT THE LAST MINUTE.
BOTH BUYER AND SELLER ARE ENTITLED TO REVIEW THE CLOSING STATEMENT 48 HOURS BEFORE CLOSING. THIS IS SELDOM DONE LOCALLY. A CLOSING PACKAGE SHOULD BE GIVEN AND REVIEWED 48 HOURS BEFORE CLOSING SO THAT THE PARTIES SIMPLY DO NOT GO TO CLOSING AND SIGN WHATEVER THE AGENT SAYS ARE THE “USUAL PAPERS” THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS “USUAL PAPERS”.
OUR OFFICE CAN ASSIST IN TRYING TO GET BOTH PARTIES PREPARED FOR A CLOSNG, AND NOT HAVE A CLOSING AGENT HAND YOU A PEN TO SIGN WHILE AT THE SAME TIME TELL YOU WHAT THIS 12 PAGE “USUAL DOCUMETN” IS ALL ABOUT.
