Buying or selling residential or commercial property can be an exciting experience. However, without skilled legal representation, it can also be risky. At Parker Lawyers, I protect your rights and interests by helping you draft or review a sound buyer-seller agreement. Over the course of my extensive career, I have learned that comprehensive and clearly drafted real estate agreements minimize conflicts and encourage closings. Whether you are expanding your business property or selling your home, I can assist you in creating an effective sales agreement.
Colorado law requires real estate sellers to disclose certain property-related information before the closing. If you are buying property in Parker, I can review the seller’s disclosure form to ensure the following information is revealed:
Additionally, if any of the above information is disclosed, I can press the seller’s attorney to find out more information about the issue. Since agreeing on the disclosure form is the first step to developing a successful buyer-seller agreement, it is essential that the seller candidly list as much information as possible.
If you are selling property, I can assist you in drafting your own disclosure or in filling out the state-provided disclosure form. By carefully assessing your property, I can ensure your disclosure is filled out as accurately as possible.
As a buyer, a disclosure form can give you a good idea as to the condition and history of the real estate you hope to purchase, but it cannot replace a licensed home inspector. Remember, sellers are only required to disclose issues they are aware of. If you are buying real estate — residential or commercial — I advise you to have a professional inspector go through the property at least once before you sign a buyer-seller agreement. The trained eye of an inspector may detect hazards, mold, or other issues the owner failed to notice.
Regardless of whether you are buying or selling a piece of real estate, you must have a well-drafted contract in place. While I am unopposed to using the standard buyer-seller forms provided by the state, I prefer to create original and comprehensive agreements that are customizable to my clients’ needs. Depending on your situation, your buyer-seller agreement may address any number of issues before the closing, including:
Whether you are buying or selling property in Colorado, I take the time to understand your objectives and create a sound and comprehensive agreement that accurately addresses your concerns and protects your investment.
