Buying A Home

Buying a home is one of the largest and most important purchases you will make in your life. This is the culmination of a dream and a once-in-a-lifetime experience for some people.

That's why it needs to be right.

Agreements to buy a home are far from simple. It's never just a matter of paying the seller, taking possession, and moving in. There are lots of details and detours from what you thought was going to be a straight line.

The property might have underground oil tanks. If you don't know about them in advance and you close on the property, they become your problem. With an effective attorney, you can hire an expert to do an environmental check. If something dangerous is found, it can be the seller's responsibility to remedy it. Or you can withdraw from the transaction if the seller doesn't make the fix.
