Real Estate

A Long Island Law Firm Facilitating Secure Real Estate Transactions

Buying, selling or leasing a residential property can bring great opportunities as well as risks to parties on both sides of the transaction. A buyer, seller, landlord or tenant often has much on the line while also standing to gain through the fulfillment of a goal: acquiring a home, building equity and/or deriving profit. An experienced lawyer with a deep understanding of the local real estate landscape is often an essential partner in this process.

At Futterman Lanza, LLP, we are well aware of what our clients need to know and how to guide them efficiently through each step along the way to success. From our Smithtown, Melville and Garden City offices, we offer convenience and accessibility to people, and businesses engaged in residential real estate transactions.

How We Can Protect Your Interests in a Buy-Sell or Lease Agreement

Astute buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants rely on us to keep their transactions moving forward. We are here to provide direction, keep you informed and ensure accurate, timely completion of the requirements of your purchase, sale or lease of a residential property, such as:

Freestanding single-family home
Townhouse
Unit in multifamily housing, such as a condominium
Cooperative apartment

We can assist with other types of transactions, too, such as:

Refinancing
Transferring or retitling of deeds in connection with an inheritance, Medicaid planning, gift or divorce

Our legal team will protect you from liability while assisting with all steps in the process leading to the completion of your transaction, including:

Inspections and remediation of discovered problems on the property
Title review and title defect repair (quiet title actions)
Drafting, negotiating, and signing a contract of sale
Preparing for closing; troubleshooting at the time of closing
Completing and filing appropriate documents with lenders and/or government agencies as necessary

Building on our many years of combined experience and our strong reputation, many clients express appreciation for our professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail.

Discuss Your Property Goals With an Attorney

Many clients primarily communicate with us by phone and via videoconferences. Others prefer to meet in person. Let us know where and how you would like to meet to discuss your real estate transaction.

We offer Flat-Fee billing for most of our client’s cases. We believe you should be focusing on your family’s future, not the clock. That’s why we operate on a transparent flat fee basis. Find out more about our flat fee billing during your free first time consultation.
