MJH’s strong relationship with real estate brokers and agents, title insurers, service providers and lenders allow MJH to close transactions efficiently and economically.
Why do I need an attorney?
Georgia is one of several states that do not have title companies, and attorneys assume that role by conducting real estate closings between buyers and sellers. Further, a real estate lawyer can help you avoid any potential issues with the property that can end up costing you more in the long run.
Our Services
Title Searches
A title search makes sure the property is free of any outstanding obligations, such as a lien or legal judgment, and ensures that the owner has the right to sell the property. If any problems arise, our title attorneys can advise you on how to proceed.
Property Transfer
Negotiations can be complicated if one or more parties are a corporation, trust, or partnership. Our attorneys understand how different types of business arrangements affect the sale under Georgia law and are happy to help our clients ensure all parties are correctly prepared for closing.
Conduct Closings
We’re dedicated to providing stress-free closings for all of our clients, whether it’s financing a property through lenders, a cash transaction, or refinancing a mortgage through a lender.
