Our Commercial and Residential Real Estate Practice

Our attorneys advise clients regarding a broad range of real estate matters, from the purchase and sale of residential and commercial real estate to landlord-tenant issues, from the representation of condominium associations to zoning and land use matters.

We Will Assist You With Your Real Estate Purchase, Sale or Closing

We work with buyers and sellers at all stages of a real estate transaction, from the negotiation of contracts through the closing. If you are purchasing property, we will review the purchase agreement and make recommendations regarding terms that can be negotiated. We will review the title documents and take the steps necessary to secure clear title. We will review and prepare all documents required to successfully complete the transaction, including the sales contract, deeds, mortgages, financing instruments, easements and restrictive covenants. Our attorneys will review the closing documents and attend the closing.

Why You Want an Attorney When You Are Involved in a Real Estate Transaction

If you are selling or purchasing residential or commercial property, you may be working with a realtor. A realtor cannot, however, practice law. Illinois law provides that a realtor cannot draft real estate sale or purchase contracts. It is an attorney's job to prepare all contracts relating to a sale or purchase of real property, as well as obtain and pass good, clean and marketable title and represent your interests at closing. Your realtor's job is to match a seller with a purchaser.

For experienced representation in commercial and residential real estate matters, contact us to schedule a confidential consultation. Consultations are offered by appointment during our regular office hours of 9 a.m. until 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and by appointment at other hours.
