Common Real Estate Legal Issues

There are countless reasons why individuals may feel inclined to involve legal action with their real estate matters, though there are some common issues our law firm has helped clients with over the years.

Breach of Contract

Many real estate issues involve legal action when it comes to contracts. In a real estate transaction, contracts are almost always required and involve complicated matters such as title clearances, assets, and more. Many individuals choose to file lawsuits over a breach of contract. In a breach of contract, the plaintiff must show that they fulfilled their contractual obligations while the other party has not. Those who are able to prove this successfully can receive compensation for any losses they may have suffered.

Negligence or Breach of Duty

Agents and realtors have a responsibility to put the best interests of their clients first and to not be corrupted by the interests of third parties or salespeople. Agent and realtors can be found to be negligent if the plaintiff can prove that they failed to keep sensitive information about their clients confidential, or if they didn’t disclose information that would have been beneficial to a client before they made a decision.

Failure to Disclose Property Defects

Purchasing property is a major investment, and buyers deserve to know if the property has any defects or issues before they make a decision to purchase. If property defects are discovered after the real estate transaction and it’s revealed that the seller failed to disclose this information, buyers are eligible to seek compensation for the costs of fixing the issue from the seller.

Why Do I Need a Real Estate Attorney?

A real estate attorney has the experience and skills that clients need to help them prepare and review documents that relate to real estate, such as purchase agreements, transfer documents, title documents, and mortgage documents. We understand that clients want to file their paperwork in an efficient manner so they can lock in their deals and move on. Our attorneys have helped many clients review and file their agreements and can easily determine when a contract needs revising.

Additionally, some states require that a real estate attorney be present during any transaction, and South Carolina is one of those states. Real estate matters involve complex laws that an attorney can easily help you navigate, like foreclosures and short sales. You want to be sure that you’re receiving a deal that benefits you and isn’t taking advantage of you or your finances. We can settle disputes in and out of the courtroom, as well as prevent them from occurring in the first place.
