Why Do You Need a Real Estate Attorney?
Currently, under North Carolina law, only a licensed attorney can perform real estate closings. The process of buying or selling a house can be complex. There are many things happening at once, lots of different parties involved, and typically very large amounts of money at stake.
Between contract negotiations, financing, inspections, and repairs, the entire process is exhausting! The title to the property must be thoroughly examined for any outstanding liens or other matters, transferred from the seller to the buyer at closing, and all parties to the transaction must be paid.
It is vital to have an attorney perform these functions to ensure that they are done correctly and in compliance with current law and best practice standards.

How long does it take to do a real estate closing?
Once we receive your contract, we can typically perform a title search in 7-10 days. If there is a problem with the title, we will let you know as soon as possible in order to avoid any delays. After the title work is complete and we have received all of the invoices to be paid out at closing, we can prepare the settlement statement or closing disclosure.
We will then coordinate your closing date with the lender. The entire process typically takes 2-4 weeks for a cash closing, and 3-6 weeks for a loan closing, depending on a number of factors. If you have a question about your specific closing, please give us a call and we can give you a more specific estimate.
There are also many things you can do to help speed up the process, and we would be delighted to talk with you and let you know how to make the process go smoothly and quickly.
