The Law firm of Jason & Fischer has more than 20 years of experience guiding clients through real estate transactions.

Atty. Jason knows what to look for — and what to look out for — as she reviews all documents, from the offer to purchase and the purchase and sale agreement to closing documents.

We negotiate effectively on your behalf, helping you get the best possible outcomes. That means ensuring the terms of the P&S are favorable, addressing issues that may come up in a home inspection, dealing with unexpected issues that can arise at closing, and more.

Having the legal consultation and facts you need to make the best decisions makes the whole process less stressful. That’s why we work to keep you informed every step of the way. And you can simply pick up the phone or send us an email whenever you have a question, because we keep our billing policies fair and competitive.

Selling or buying a property is likely to be the single largest transaction you will ever complete. As your attorneys, our only agenda is to protect your best interests. The sooner you bring us into the process, the more able we are to advocate on your behalf. Call and talk to Linda Jason at no obligation today.

10 Ways to Prepare to Buy a Home

1. Start a project notebook. Become an expert in the properties in your price range in the community and the neighborhood that interests you.
2. Line up your team. You’ll need a home inspector, attorney, and lender.
3. Be wary of real estate brokers. Sellers’ brokers represent sellers’ interests – not yours. Remember, “Just because someone asks, doesn’t mean you have to answer.”
4. Get to know the community. Go to open houses, subscribe to a month of local newspapers, check out the town center, shopping area, schools, and drive-time to work.
5. Research home prices. Go online and check out tax assessments, recent sales prices, and current sellers’ purchase prices.
6. Get your finances in order. Request a copy of your credit report and check for accuracy. Also save your cancelled rent checks. Get “pre-qualified” for a mortgage loan.
7. Get a mortgage application. All applications ask for the same information, so any application will do. Fill it out a form so that you will have all information accessible and be ready to apply.
8. Shop for a mortgage. Ask your friends, call lenders directly and ask for details about rates, points and closing costs.
9. Be confident. It’s not “rocket science.” Know what price is right and you will find something you like and can afford.
10. Don’t fall in love with any one property or you’ll never be able to negotiate the price.
