Our real estate practice is led by Andrew Capelli, who has over a decade of experience in real estate law and transactions, both as an attorney and as a resident agent for title insurance. Mr. Capelli has reviewed thousands of title abstracts, loan documents and purchase agreements, and he has personally handled over two thousand real estate closings.
Our firm handles a range of real estate matters for individuals and businesses. Areas of real estate law in which we can assist you include:
-
Selling or buying residential real estate: Whether a cash sale, financed purchase, land contract or even a 1031 exchange, we can draft offers to purchase, disclosure documents, counteroffers and other contracts, or review such documents prepared by another party.
-
Leases and rental agreements: We can draft or review your lease and assist you with the enforcement of your contractual rights. Also, we can help landlords with evicting delinquent tenants, and help tenants review their options when they have fallen behind or have other problems with their rented property.
-
“Quiet title”: Unrecorded or improperly recorded documents, misapplied tax bills, fraud by other parties, and other discrepancies can unexpectedly cause you problems when you are looking to sell or refinance your home. We can track down and repair the “blemishes” to your home’s chain of title so that you can use or transfer your property as you wish.
-
Real estate litigation: Seller disclosure issues, easement disputes, boundary disagreements, enforcement of real estate contracts and other matters often require litigation. We have the experience and skill to represent you in such matters, whether you are a plaintiff or defendant.
