Houston Real Estate Attorney

You’re planning to buy or sell a house or commercial building. This is a bold step, so congrats!

However, you’ve heard that Texas real estate transactions are notoriously complex. This isn’t just a rumor. Between title commitments, buy-sell agreements, deeds, property appraisals, and more, just one tiny mistake can delay or derail everything.

That’s why it’s vital to rely on a skilled and experienced Houston real estate attorney to guide you through your real estate transaction. Your attorney can help you avoid red tape in a Texas real estate transaction that loses you vital time and money.

At The Titus Law Firm, our real estate lawyers have handled many commercial and residential real estate transactions. Our team has worked successfully with large and small businesses, investors, high-net-worth individuals, middle-class homeowners, and more. Our Houston real estate attorneys are here to help you with your next real estate transaction.

You can trust us. We know what we’re doing. Contact us today so we get the ball rolling!

What If You Don’t Have a Real Estate Lawyer?

Many complex real estate transactions can fly off the rails quickly without a lawyer with experience in Texas real estate law leading the process.

For example, mistakes can delay things if you don’t have a real estate attorney representing you on closing day. Additionally, you might pay more in closing costs than you need to. With our Houston real estate lawyers, you can get it right the first time around.

Some clients need a customized business property purchase contract that goes outside the standard real estate forms. Without a real estate attorney with experience in business law, there’s a high probability something will go wrong with serious financial or legal consequences.

There are other times not having an attorney can cost you. After all, not every purchase or sale is a by-the-book transaction. Legal settlements, inheritances, loans, compensations, and anticipated payments can delay your closing. When it comes to ensuring your transaction is airtight, it’s not enough to hire a real estate agent. Having a reliable Houston real estate attorney protects interests and rights.

What Our Houston Real Estate Attorneys Do

Having a skilled real estate lawyer in your corner matters. We’ll do everything we can to ensure your real estate transaction goes smoothly. What follows are some of the many real estate legal services we offer to commercial and residential clients in Texas. Property owners in Texas can rest assured that they are in good hands.

Represent You During Closing

The real estate closing process is tricky, especially when it’s a commercial property. Before closing day, our attorneys ensure that all legal documents are ready and free of errors. We also check that all funds have been transferred and there are no property title issues or outstanding liens.

Review Contracts

Our attorneys can draft or review all real estate contracts. We’ll ensure they are error-free, legally sound, and protect your interests. Contracts we typically review include:

  • Commercial purchase and sale contracts
  • Lease contracts
  • Buy-sell agreements

Check Titles, Deeds, and Liens

It’s vital that real estate purchasers acquire property with titles and deeds that are free of liens and other defects. Our lawyers will look into titles and deeds to ensure they’re ready for transfer.

Review Zoning Issues

Texas real estate investors need to be confident the property has the right zoning for its intended purpose.

Obtain Financing

Commercial real estate transactions can sometimes seem like a whole other language. The Houston real estate attorneys at our law office can represent you when securing financing for real estate. We also can help you understand the terms of the financial contract.

File Real Estate Lawsuits

Our lawyers do their best to resolve real estate disputes out of court. But we’re ready to represent you in court when a settlement is impossible. At the Titus Law Firm, we are experienced in complex business litigation as well as real estate litigation. These aren’t areas of law you traverse without a professional.

Real Estate Laws in Texas

The real estate laws in Texas are complicated. Your real estate attorney is authorized by the law to prepare and review legal documents for real estate sales or purchases.

It’s always wise to have a Houston real estate attorney involved in any Texas real estate transaction, so contact us at Titus Law Firm, and we’ll ensure your deal goes off without a hitch.

Peruse Our Related Practice Areas

In our experience, we see where all these areas of law can be intertwined. Commercial real estate owners may need to form an LLC to hold property. That LLC may need robust estate planning to stay afloat for years to come. And eventually, you’ll have to consider the effects of the probate process on your business and real estate assets. Let’s talk about all the legal issues that may come up from your proposed transaction.

FAQ

Do I Need A Real Estate Lawyer When I Already Have A Realtor?

Yes. It is always best to talk to a real estate attorney before signing a contract to buy or sell real estate. Remember, realtors or real estate agents aren’t lawyers, and it’s illegal for them to give legal advice.

Why Is A Chain Of Title Check So Important When Buying Real Estate?

A property chain of title is a document that shows who truly owns the property. If you are buying a home or commercial building, it’s vital to have your attorney check the title. Proper transfer of property ownership hinges on the title being clear and free of liens.

Do I Need To Go To Court To Settle A Real Estate Dispute?

Not necessarily. Common real estate disputes involve construction delays and defects, property defects, breach of contract, clouded title, ownership disputes, and boundary disputes. Our attorneys can often settle these matters out of court, but we’re ready to litigate if needed.

How much does a real estate attorney cost?

The cost of a real estate attorney can vary significantly depending on factors like the location, complexity of the case, and the attorney’s expertise. It’s recommended to inquire with local attorneys to get an accurate estimate for your specific situation.
