We can assist you with various real estate matters, including preparing purchase agreements or leases, examining abstracts of title and issuing title opinions, conducting closings, and resolving landlord-tenant disputes. If you are buying or selling a home or land in Iowa, we can help.

 

Residential Sales

Whether you are buying or selling your residence, the transaction is one of utmost importance. A house is most people’s most valuable asset. Furthermore, if you are buying a house for your home, you want the comfort of knowing that you hold good title. Our office can prepare the purchase agreement, prepare the deed package, examine abstracts and issue title opinions, coordinate Title Guaranty commitments, provide document escrow services, and conduct closings. Additionally, if there is a problem with your title, or you need to transfer your title outside of a sale, we can prepare the necessary documents and guide you through the process.

 

Landlord-Tenant

Our office represents both landlords and tenants in residential and farm leases. We understand that landlords are engaged in rental activities in an effort to create reasonable income. We also understand that tenants have an important interest in the property during the term of the lease, since it is their home. The law governing residential leases, and how they may be terminated, can be complex. When disagreements arise and cannot be resolved, many landlord-tenant cases end up in small claims court. Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, we will look at your specific situation and protect your interests.
