Osuji & Smith Lawyers: Your real estate lawyers in Calgary

Buying a home is a huge deal.

Arguably, it’s the biggest purchase you’ll make in your lifetime.

Because of the high cost, there are always higher risks involved. The transfer of property and other real estate transactions must be done with due diligence.

A misstep in these transactions can be catastrophic, so enlisting the help of a skilled and experienced Calgary real estate lawyer can help the process go more smoothly.

What types of real estate transactions require legal guidance?

An experienced Calgary real estate lawyer can help a prospective home buyer with:

  • The buying, refinancing, and lease drafting of both residential and commercial properties.
  • Construction financing and mortgages
  • Private lending (also called venture capital funding)
  • Transfer of title
  • Out of town real estate transactions (providing notary services and preparing documents for clients purchasing the property out of province)
  • Condominium boards and management companies
  • Latent defects in real estate purchase (such as hidden damages)

 

Enlisting legal counsel can help identify potential issues and maintain communication throughout the purchase with all parties involved.

I am purchasing a home, what should I look out for?

Chances are if you’re seeking the guidance of a real estate lawyer, you’ve already found a prospective property. Now that your eyes are set on your new home, an experienced Calgary real estate lawyer can ensure you’re informed going forward with the transaction.

From reviewing details of the offer to securing lending details to transfer of title, we can help keep the process of buying your home going as smoothly as possible.

Unfortunately, things don’t always go to plan. We are also here to help in situations that arise when you and the seller finalize the purchase.

If your safety inspector uncovers a latent defect in your home (e.g. mould, faulty electric or major construction issues), we can help you defend yourself. We can also represent you if any disputes arise with the seller or others involved in the property’s management.
