Q: Why are lawyers needed for the sale or purchase of property?
A person requires a lawyer to ensure their rights are protected and obligations are fulfilled in the sale or purchase of property. A lawyer also certifies the home has clear title and ensures encumbrances are removed from the parcel of land for sale, such as a seller's mortgage.
When selling a property, a lawyer ensures you are legally selling it and the proper adjustments are made for taxes, oil and propane. Lawyers are also useful if there are disputes between the parties prior to, or on the closing date. Using a lawyer ensures closings are worry free.
