RI Real Estate
Lawyer That Get Real Results
Real estate, Probate, Wills, Trusts, Title and Escrow,
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial
real estate law is a category of real estate law that
establishes standards for commercial leases and the purchase
and sale of commercial real estate.
Commercial
lease lawyers who are familiar with commercial lease terms
can help you review potential lease contracts and avoid future
pitfalls.
Condominiums and
Cooperatives Both
condominiums
and cooperatives are types of "common-interest"
communities. In the case of condominiums, owners are usually
governed by a CC & R; (Conditions, Convents, &
Restrictions) document. Violators can be fined, and defenders
against violation accusations may find it valuable to speak to
practiced CC
& R lawyers.
Construction
Disputes
Construction
disputes are common in the construction industry, and many
of them revolve around construction delays. Because the debate
over delays can be tense and time-consuming,
construction
dispute mediation can be a great, cheap alternative to
litigation. Real estate lawyers can also serve where mediation
has failed.
Landlord and Tenant
Landlord
and tenant law is at the foundation of many real estate
transactions, including eviction, lease signing, subletting,
and more. It is difficult to
be a successful landlord in any situation, but
familiarizing yourself with real estate law gives you firm
ground to stand on should a dispute arise. A good grip on the
law is important for tenants as well. Renters should review
our "What
Every Tenant Needs to Know" article to get started.
Mortgages
Mortgages
are liens that are put on your property by a bank or financial
institution, usually in exchange for a large loan. There are
several types
of mortgages currently available to homeowners, and
choosing the right one for your situation is one way of
avoiding
foreclosure that can occur later on. Speaking to real
estate lawyers is the first step to staying on top of your
mortgage.
Purchase and Sale of
Residence The
purchase
and sale of a residence or home can be done completely on
your own, but is more often executed through an experienced
broker or agent. While a broker can make the sale of your
house much easier, it also brings contracts and commissions
into the mix. If you decide to sell through an agent, real
estate lawyers can review your contract with them before it is
signed.
Title and Boundary
Disputes
Title
and boundary disputes center on issues of property
ownership: who owns a property and where are that property's
boundaries? Agreed
boundary lawyers can assist you if the public record of
your property's boundaries differs from the boundaries agreed
upon with your neighbor. In fact, if you treat a certain line
as a boundary line for long enough, it may legally become the
property's boundary line under
acquiescence
to a boundary line laws.
Zoning, Planning,
and Land Use
Zoning,
planning, and land use laws give local governments control
over the way that land is used-usually with the goal of
creating uniform neighborhoods and areas. Zoning laws can be
very complex, and many
types
of zoning exist to regulate building. The violation of
zoning laws can be a serious (and expensive) offense, and
those accused of violating zoning laws should speak with local
real estate lawyers in their area. |
