Massachusetts estate planning

Buying or selling your home can be a confusing and daunting process.  Our clients come to us with a lot of questions. We just made or accepted an offer, what is next? What are contingency clauses and how do they protect me? Does the closing attorney represent me and my interest? What is Title V and do I need it? What are closing costs and how do I pay for them? What is title insurance?  Do I need an owner's title insurance policy? What can I expect during this process?

While acting as the seller’s attorney, the buyers attorney or closing/lenders attorney over the course of 20 plus years, attorney John A. Laine has been involved in over a thousand residential real estate transactions and has seen it all. Hiring an experienced real estate attorney early in the process ensures a stress-free path from offer to closing table.  When a buyer or seller hires attorney John A. Laine they will feel confident that he is there every step of the way.

Buyer Representation

When buying your home let attorney John Laine help protect you throughout the process.  He can review the purchase offer. We also offer negotiation and drafting of the purchase and sale agreement, including contingencies for home inspection, Title V and mortgage financing.  These ensure that you, as the buyer, are protected in the home buying process.  Let our office perform your title examination and review to ensure that you will receive a clear and marketable title to your new home, free and clear of any claims or encumbrances of prior owners or other third-party creditors. We will also review and prepare closing documents including the deed, settlement statement, mortgage and note.

Seller Representation

Our office can also help to protect you when selling your home.  Attorney Laine can assist with the acceptance of the offer to purchase.  In addition, he can negotiate and draft the purchase and sale agreement.  Let our office clear any title defects and ensure that you are ready and able to convey a clear marketable title on time.  We will work with your realtor to ensure a smooth sale of your property.
Buyers and sellers are encouraged to contact attorney John A. Laine when they are ready to make an offer or accept an offer on purchase or sale of their home.
