Deed Transfers
Deed transfers are legal actions that change the ownership of property from one person to another. This process can be initiated for various reasons, including selling property, gifting it to a family member, transferring to a Trust, or changing the title for estate planning purposes, or due to the death of the owner. Our law firm ensures that all aspects of the deed transfer are handled correctly, from drafting and reviewing the deed to recording it with the appropriate government office. We help our clients understand the implications of the transfer, including tax consequences and potential effects on estate planning.

Co-op Transfers
Co-op transfers involve the transfer of shares in a cooperative housing corporation, which in turn represent an ownership interest in a specific unit within the co-op. This type of transfer is different from traditional real estate transactions because it involves the transfer of personal property (shares) rather than real property. Our firm provides comprehensive legal services to navigate the co-op board's requirements, manage the transfer of shares, and handle all associated documentation and approvals.

Closings
Closings are the final step in the process of buying or selling real estate, where the property title is officially transferred from the seller to the buyer, and all related financial transactions are completed. Our law firm represents buyers, sellers, and lenders in closings to ensure that all documents are accurately prepared and that the transaction complies with all legal requirements. We manage the entire closing process, including reviewing contracts, resolving last-minute disputes, and facilitating the smooth exchange of funds and documentation.
