Do I Need To Hire An Attorney For Real Estate Closing In New York, NY?

Unless you are an attorney yourself, it is absolutely recommended for you to hire a closing attorney for your real estate matters in New York.

In other states in the U.S., it is legal for a person’s real estate agent to help them prepare closing documents and advise them on legal matters regarding the buying and selling process.

However, in the state of New York, it is only legal for the person buying or selling real estate (the principa) or their attorney to draw up closing documents, contracts, or offer legal counsel.

Additionally, in 90-99% of real estate closings in the state of New York, both parties are represented by an attorney, and many banks will not approve a mortgage unless you have a lawyer. Because of this, while it is legal for you to represent yourself when buying or selling a home, it is highly recommended for you to seek the representation of a real estate closing attorney.

This is especially important to consider as opting to close without legal representation can result in the other party’s lawyer drawing up the closing contracts and documents, which may not have your best interests included.

What’s more, real estate lawyers are experienced in the laws surrounding these matters, and so much more. Attorneys practicing in this field are generally very well acquainted with the housing markets which they serve, aggressively negotiating contracts for the best terms available, and retaining a full scope of the steps needed to ensure due diligence is investigated correctly.

What Is The Due Diligence Process In New York, NY?

Due diligence is the process by which a buyer of commercial or private real estate is able to investigate a host of aspects regarding the property.

From financial valuations, physical assessments, and more: due diligence allows buyers the opportunity to assess and discover any area of concern that may need to be addressed before closing documents are finalized.

Whether you are purchasing a single-family home, an industrial property, or a multi-family property, this period is of acute importance and requires expert scrutiny. The findings that can arise may greatly impact the nature of your contracts and may protect you from any number of financial burdens in the future.

Our firm has provided due diligence services to countless clients. We have been very pleased to negotiate terms of repair and other closing matters in an aggressive manner to ensure that our clients are receiving the property and fair transaction that they deserve.
