Residential Real Estate Attorneys Serving Kane, Kendall, DeKalb, and DuPage Counties

Buying or selling a home can be an exciting time in one's life. Perhaps you are buying your first home, the place where you hope to raise your family. It is possible you are ready to sell that starter home and look for a house with a little more space. Whether you are buying your very first piece of property or selling your third house, an experienced Illinois residential real estate attorney from Serrano Hanson can help.

Do I Need a Lawyer for a Residential Real Estate Transaction in Illinois?

While most people know that a realtor is a valuable asset when looking to buy or sell a home, they may not be as certain about the role a lawyer plays in these transactions. Whether you are the buyer or the seller, it is always a good idea to hire a lawyer. Some of the reasons to seek guidance from an experienced and local residential real estate attorney include:

  • A lawyer can provide legal guidance that your realtor is not allowed to provide. Realtors function within their own regulatory guidelines, and providing legal guidance does not fall under their purview.
  • Lawyers who have experience in this field can help you explore multiple financing options, as they are probably more familiar with the options available than the average consumer.
  • A lawyer is looking out for your interests. They are not paid on commission, so they have no interest in closing a sale that may not be in your best interest.
  • Residential real estate transactions require contracts, which are legally binding documents. Often, the language can be confusing, and an attorney will ensure that you understand what you are signing.
