NC REAL ESTATE TRANSACTION: On the Outer Banks of North Carolina, closings are handled by Outer Banks real estate lawyers who specializes in real estate law. In many other states, closings are handled by title or escrow companies; and in those states,  the title search might be farmed out to lawyers or real estate paralegals. Outer Banks real estate attorneys will prepare the HUD-1, record deeds at the courthouse, disperses funds (Seller's proceeds and mortgage payoff, agency fees, land surveyors,  all property inspection fees, and tax payments.

SHORT SALES & FORECLOSURES : As a realtor, working with buyers and sellers of short sale & foreclosure property everyday, I can tell you that knowing your legal rights upfront is paramount when facing the options of selling "short" or foreclosing on a property. Quite frankly even making that one courtesy call "to see if someone at the bank will be nice to you", may be the biggest mistake you'll ever make. I always recommend legal counsel, even BEFORE the first inquiry to the status or delinquency of a mortgage. The advice you will get from an experienced attorney will go a long, long, way. Unless you are a NORTH CAROLINA attorney I can assure you don't know enough. Communicate with a lawyer first. If you have some general questions on short sales & foreclosures, contact me here.
