  • Draft your purchase agreement, or review such a contract for any "red flag" issues. (Example: "Buyer is responsible for any repairs.")
  • Thoroughly examine the title history and the property deed. Our job is to identify any liens (financial claims), property easements, or other encumbrance. We will issue a legal opinion of title that protects you in case of a later dispute.
  • Act as the escrow agent. We can hold down payments or deposits until the closing.
  • Conduct your closing. In Indiana, the buyer and seller meet to sign papers and transfer payment to complete the transaction. We review all loan documents and contracts at (or prior to) this meeting to ensure your rights are protected.
