Buying & Selling a Home

Buying or selling a house is often one of the biggest purchases a person will make. Understanding the law can help you make informed choices when doing so. It is important to protect yourself against common legal and financial pitfalls.

Buying Costs

A home is, for most people, the most expensive thing they will ever buy. Understanding all the costs involved can help purchasers make an informed decision about what they can afford to spend on buying a home.

Finding a Property

Choosing a home to buy is a big decision. Knowing about options and potential issues can help.

Listing a Property

There are different ways to sell a house. Each option has advantages and disadvantages.

Property Condition Disclosure

Property disclosure statements are filled out by sellers and can contain useful information. They often do not tell the whole story, however.

Real Estate Contracts

When a house is sold, the parties enter into a contract that has the terms of the sale.

Financing a Home Purchase

Most people borrow at least part of the money they need to buy a home. Borrowers will have certain obligations to the lender.

Transferring Title

When a house is sold, the title must be transferred to the purchaser's name. There are options concerning how multiple purchasers can hold title.
