Buying or selling property in PR: the attorney’s role
Buying or selling a property is one of the most important transactions in life. Here we guide you, in general, on how an attorney helps make the process safe.
The title search
Before closing, a title search is usually done: a review to confirm the legal status of the property. It helps you know what you are buying or selling, without surprises.
The transfer and the closing
The attorney supports the transfer steps so that the change of hands is formalized correctly. It is a layer of protection before signing.
Every transaction is different. In the consultation, the firm explains the process according to your case.
