Real Estate Transactions Attorney In Lancaster County, Pennsylvania

You’ve heard it said that for most people, their home is the single largest purchase they will make in their lifetime. This old saying is true for a reason. Have you checked real estate prices in Pennsylvania recently? Since the Commonwealth was created, no new land has been added. Land is inherently limited, and scarcity coupled with demand creates value.

That’s where I come in. As a real estate transactions attorney serving Elizabethtown, Gettysburg, and surrounding areas, my goal is to help you make sense of the market and move forward with confidence. The purchase or sale of real estate property is a significant venture—both emotionally and financially—but it doesn’t need to be overwhelming. Schedule a virtual or in-person consultation with me at North Star Legal Services, LLC to begin the process. If you can’t come to my offices in Elizabethtown or Gettysburg, I’ll come to you.

Goal-Oriented Real Estate Counsel

I know what it’s like to navigate the real estate market maze. Before opening North Star Legal Services, LLC, I worked for a home builder, where I gained invaluable personal experience dealing with many of the same issues that you face. Additionally, in developing large commercial real estate projects, I’ve learned to take multiple perspectives into account, especially the perspectives of a potential client or homebuyer. Let me help you pursue your goals in a variety of real estate matters, including:

Residential Real Estate In Pennsylvania

When you walk into the office of a real estate transaction lawyer with questions surrounding a piece of property, you may often come away more puzzled than when you arrived. With the value of many properties and homes increasing by the day, it is important that you understand the mechanics of your real estate transaction. But the legal jargon can be quite confusing to just about everyone.

From paperwork at your closing to knowing what value (if any) is provided by a home inspection, I am ready to explain every element of a transaction in a down-to-earth manner that ensures you really understand what is happening and why. My goal is to help people in Hershey, Harrisburg, Lancaster, and throughout Pennsylvania successfully navigate complex real estate issues.

Commercial Real Estate Transactions

When it comes to these kinds of transactions, you’ll need a lawyer who understands the intricate laws, regulations and rules that come with any deal. There are the property laws, there are land use regulations and zoning laws, there are environmental and pollution laws, and there are the complexities of financing.

To make matters even more confusing, for many businesses, their exposure to real estate may be further complicated by a commercial lease. It’s important to understand your rights and obligations under a lease, either as a landlord or a tenant. Even more important, though, is gaining insight into what all these laws and contracts actually mean for your business.

Let me take the lead in your commercial real estate case so that you can truly move forward. Set up a time to speak with me, either virtually or in-person, wherever works best for you in Dauphin County, Lancaster County, Adams County, or anywhere in Pennsylvania.

Can’t I Just Hire A Realtor Instead?

Many people think they can navigate a real estate transaction with just the help of a real estate agent. However, this is simply not true. A real estate agent is one thing— but a real estate attorney who can provide legal advice backed by decades of experience is another thing entirely. In fact, I often charge less than you’d pay for a realtor’s typical commission. No matter where you live in Pennsylvania, I’m ready to take on the role of your skilled real estate agent and your legal advocate.
