Residential Real Estate Services
In our work with homeowners, homebuyers, investment groups, and landlords, we strive to assist clients with a range of services, including:
- Purchases of single-family homes, condominiums, townhomes, and other residential properties
- Selling of residential properties
- Negotiation of contracts, credits, and other factors in a home sale or purchase
- Home sale or purchase for out-of-state buyers or sellers
- Insurance coverage concerns
- Purchase agreements
- Foreclosures
Any errors in the home buying or home selling process can be extremely costly, affecting your family for years or even decades to come. Working with an experienced attorney who can draft solid contracts, identify potentially problematic areas in current agreements, and negotiate with your best interests in mind gives you peace of mind during this stressful process.
Our work extends to routine real estate agreements, purchases, and sales, as well as those that are more complex or that become contentious. When negotiations fail or agreements are broken, time is of the essence. You need an attorney who is willing to fight aggressively to protect your investment, your best interests, and your rights under your current contract.
Business Real Estate Services
When commercial real estate is involved, your choose of real estate attorney can determine how smoothly negotiations go, how quickly you jump on the perfect spot for your business, or how long it takes to close the deal.
Business real estate transactions involve substantial amounts of money, and both buyers and sellers work under tight deadlines to produce necessary financial documents, contracts, and other paperwork to keep the process moving.
If you are trying to buy or sell commercial real estate, the team at Haygood, Cleveland, Pierce, Thompson & Short can help. When you’re ready to buy, we’ll help you navigate the current marketplace, move swiftly on a property that meets your business’ needs, and negotiate from a place of knowledge and expertise.
Our team is also involved in almost every other aspect of real estate acquisition and selling, from land use and zoning to boundary disputes. For those who own or purchase commercial real estate for investment purposes, we can assist with commercial lease agreements.
Real Estate Disputes
While many real estate transactions move smoothly and close within the expected timeframe, there are those that hit repeated roadblocks and disagreements. Our team is ready to assist and represent you throughout these transactions, as we know how much is at stake for you every time you hit a delay.
Some of the issues we have helped clients with in the past include:
- Landlord-tenant disputes, which includes evictions
- Insurance disputes
- Zoning disputes
- Foreclosures
- Land use regulation issues
Choosing an Attorney for Your Real Estate Needs
Whether you are looking for representation for a residential or commercial sale, selecting the right attorney for your legal needs is paramount. Our team has a wide breadth of experience in real estate law, and our focus is protecting your financial interests and legal rights during sales and other transactions. The real estate market is constantly in flux, and without an attorney who can move quickly and decisively, you risk losing your savings and investments to market changes.
Additionally, you want an attorney who understands the emotional investment you have made into your residential or commercial property. Choosing a family home is one of the most important things you’ll do for your loved ones; the home you select will be the place where memories are made, where children return home during breaks at college, and where loved ones gather for the holidays. Working with an attorney who can anticipate potential issues, prepare for them, and react quickly when they arise can save you money and prevent you from losing your dream home.
The same is true for commercial purchases. While these purchases do not have the same emotional weight as a home purchase, buying a commercial property often reflects years of business growth and development, careful thought regarding what type of property works best for your business, and consideration of your long-term goals.
Unfortunately, properties that meet every one of your requirements are likely to leave the market quickly. Without an attorney who can draft strong and negotiate contracts, you run the risk of losing your ideal business property before you can take a fair shot at it.
It comes down to experience and trust. The team of attorneys at Haygood, Cleveland, Pierce, Thompson & Short brings a variety of experiences and professional backgrounds to the table, putting us in a position to offer specialized advice for whatever real estate issues arise. Furthermore, we are committed first and foremost to the success of our clients. Whether you’re buying a starter home or purchasing a multi-million dollar commercial property, we are invested in helping you reach closing on schedule and within budget.
Our goal is to create a partnership that will last beyond the purchase of your home or commercial property. We remain accessible to you beyond the date of closing, ready to assist with issues that arise, information that was withheld during the purchase, and contract disputes.
