RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE

The purchase and sale of residential property often is the largest financial transaction of one's life. Due to their personal nature, residential transactions are also emotionally driven and stressful. Given these facts, residential purchases and sales can be complex and should not be taken lightly. The legal consequences from mistakes or omissions during the buying and selling process can cause you major headaches and unanticipated costs. Buyers and sellers need technical advice about their rights and responsibilities under a contract. Realtors and title company employees are not trained, legally authorized nor expected to provide answers to important and complicated legal questions.

Anacostia Law has experience in handling the array of legal and title issues involved in the purchase or sale of a residence. We navigate clients through the negotiation of the contract, title review, reviewing and explaining closing documentation and settlement statements as well as providing advice on consequences of default should the transaction not close. Our knowledge in residential transactions is also diverse. We have represented individuals, residential developers and homebuilders in the purchase and sale of single family homes & condominiums. Guidance and assistance from our experienced team will protect your interests and ensure a smooth closing process.
