Skipping the real estate inspection can be costly

Wynn at Law, LLC knows the cost of a real estate inspection may seem a little bit steep with all the other closing expenses to bear, but it’s well worth it in the end. The cost will vary based on the size of the house, but between $300 and $500 is a good estimate in Walworth County. If these inspections aren’t done, issues with the house might crop up later and end up costing thousands in repairs.

Flipping real estate advice for buyers, sellers, and speculators

Wynn at Law LLC has noticed a recent resurgence of real estate ‘flipping.’ Late-night cable and radio stations are again saturated with ads touting the wild income potential of acquiring and liquidating the same piece of property within the shortest possible time frame.

‘By-Owner’ real estate sellers need protection

One article earlier in the Wynn at Law, LLC archives mentioned our current real estate market cycle as being a seller’s market. There’s not much supply, and plenty of demand. Even in a hot seller’s market, there’s a temptation to increase the net price received for the property by offering it For Sale By Owner, or FSBO. (Real estate pros pronounce it ‘fizzboh.’)

When building a home, get lien waivers

A casual conversation with one of the many area realtors with whom Wynn at Law LLC works revealed an interesting take on the current real estate market in Walworth County. It’s a seller’s market right now (see related article). The demand outpaces the supply. That scenario is great for sellers, and it’s also great for those wishing to build rather than buy a home.
There are plenty of subdivisions in development in the area. Visitors from Chicagoland are usually struck by the amount of larger parcels available for country living, too. When you buy one and start to build – or if you’ve already broken ground – an important pair of words for your venture are: Lien Waiver.

Being neighborly while protecting your rights

When you buy a property, one of the things Wynn at Law, LLClooks at closely is whether or not the property has easements. The most common easement is the right to travel over your land, like you’d give to the power company. This is known as a ‘right of way.’ Property owners commonly grant easements for the placement of utility poles, utility/cable/phone trenches, water lines, or sewer lines. If an easement is in place, the legal title to the property still remains in your name as the owner. The person or company granted the easement owns the right of way.

Don't Wait for Real Estate Help

Get your real estate lawyer sooner

One of the oddities of Wynn at Law, LLC‘s flow of phone calls is this:  A potential client will call within seconds of getting a $180 speeding ticket, but will wait to call until well into buying a $300,000 home. The stakes are so much higher in the latter, and in fact, a real estate attorney on the front end can end up saving you money. Here are four ways how:
