Should I Hire a Real Estate Attorney?

While you are not required by law to hire a real estate attorney in New York, working with one when purchasing or selling a home, commercial property, or another piece of real estate can greatly ease the process. In fact, most real estate transactions in New York involve two attorneys—one who represents the buyer and one who represents the seller.

What are the benefits of hiring a real estate attorney in New York?

  • Your attorney can guide you in making an offer on a home or other piece of real estate, advising you on issues such as “comps” (prices at which comparable properties are sold), offer price, and more.
  • Your real estate attorney can negotiate with the other (seller/buyer) person’s legal counsel regarding the basic terms of the sale, including the offer price, closing contingencies, and inclusions/exclusions.
  • Your attorney can also go with the inspector to view the property and note any issues or problems that you should be aware of and/or address them with the inspector or the other person’s counsel.
  • Whether you are the buyer or the seller, your attorney can also assist in drafting all required documents, including contracts and purchase/sale agreements. Your attorney can also review the title report and assist in resolving any issues.
  • At the end of the process, your attorney can assist in closing. This can include handling paperwork, necessary documents, and providing critical information. It can also include calculating owed payments and ensuring accurate payments are made.
