Are The Complexities Of A Real Estate Transaction Or Dispute Making You Feel Unprepared And Unprotected?

Throughout every stage of the real estate transaction process, you must navigate complex laws, ordinances, licenses, permits, due diligence, contracts, financing and more. You can confront these issues yourself – but how can you be sure your interests are represented and protected?

What if there are fraudulent misrepresentations in a purchase agreement? Is the land or property you purchased suitable for the use you intended? Is the property subject to liens, easements or assessments, and can you do anything about it? What circumstances will allow you to extricate yourself from a real estate deal gone wrong?

Five Problem Areas Where A Skilled Real Estate Lawyer Can Help

Zoning: If your property's intended use conflicts with existing zoning ordinances, your real estate attorney can present and pursue all viable options, such as re-zoning requests, conditional use permits or variances. An attorney can also appeal zoning decisions made by the zoning commission or the court in the event your requests for modification or exceptions are denied.

Land Use: The laws and issues surrounding land use are vast and complicated. Often, both local and state laws must be taken into consideration. Your lawyer can help you with matters relating to the boundaries of your property (property line conflicts, subdivision approvals, annexation) and other land use conflicts (eminent domain, easements, zoning disputes).

Real Estate Tax Protests: A real estate attorney can help you dispute the assessed value of your property for taxation purposes. Specifically, your attorney can present arguments and evidence regarding your property's value before the Idaho Board of Tax Appeals.

Real Estate Fraud: Your attorney can ensure you're not the victim of misrepresentations, illegal modifications, undisclosed encumbrances or defects related to the property, title fraud, fraudulent financing scams and more. Much of this will be handled by your lawyer's vigilant review of the sales agreement and the vetting of your property's title.

Breach of Contract: When a party to your real estate agreement fails to uphold or fulfill the agreement’s stipulated obligations, your lawyer can sue for specific performance or damages. They can also advise you on resolving the conflict through mediation. Typical examples of breach of contract include withdrawal from the agreement, failure to procure financing, failure to make payments or deliver the deed or property, and more.
