Buyers

For many of us, the purchase of real estate is the single greatest financial investment we will ever make. During the closing process, the Shaheen Law Group will perform the following:

  • Determine whether the title to the property is marketable and/or insurable by a title company
  • Acquire loan documents and requirements from your lender and coordinate the closing process with them
  • Ensure that all contract and lender requirements are complete
  • Meet with you to review and sign all closing documents (the “Closing”)
  • Obtain necessary title insurance coverage
  • Record all required documents in the appropriate Clerk’s Office
  • Disburse all payments and fees as required to complete closing
  • Respond to your questions throughout the closing process
  • Advocate for you by negotiating contract terms and resolving disputes

Once the contract is signed, and you have selected us to handle your closing, we will need a copy of the contract (usually provided to us by your real estate agent). You also will need to tell us what mortgage company and home insurance company you will be using. As the closing date nears, we will assemble the final settlement figures and provide you with the amount of funds needed for closing (our goal is to provide this information to you 24-48 hours prior to closing). The last thing prior to closing is your final walk-through of the property to verify that there are no changes in the condition of the property.
