Texas Real Estate:
Our firm handles a host of real estate matters, including real
estate litigation and real estate transactions. We have also prepared a
list of Frequently
Asked Questions about Texas Real Estate Law.
and visit our our frequently asked questions about Texas law, Ask a Lawyer site.
A short list of Texas
real estate matters is provided below:
Real
Estate Companies and investment property - Many people
look to real estate as an investment opportunity. Our firm can assist
with the formation of appropriate entities to own real estate,
including corporations, limited liability companies (LLC) and limited
parterships with a corporate or LLC general partner. In multi-property
investments, many people hope to limit exposure by placing different
properties into separate legal entities. Additionally, many times
investors want a management company to operate the real estate
investment that is separate from the company that owns the real estate.
Commercial leases - Few documents are as important to a business as the commercial lease. We can draft, review and negotiate your commercial lease agreements. We can also assist with breach of lease litigation matters, both plaintiff and defense. This also may include UCC filings and security instruments.
Transfers of interests in real property and title - Deeds are the most common method for conveying an interest in real property. These deeds may contain a warranty (called a general warranty deed) or they may contain a warranty subject to a pre-existing lien or mortgage (called a special warranty deed). Another popular document is a Quitclaim. A quitclaim is a release of an interest in real property without a warranty. Many title companies will refuse to acknowledge a quitclaim as either a release or a transfer of a real estate interest. Sometimes, it is necessary to demonstrate a party's ownership interest in a parcel of property before that party can transfer the interest. Our firm regularly assists with this process.
Property financing - Most property financing in Texas is done by a promissory note, secured by a deed of trust. This has the effect of transferring title to the purchaser, while reserving a lien on the property. Should the purchaser fail to pay per the terms of the note, the holder of the note may order the trustee to sell the property in a foreclosure action. In some situations property may be transferred by a document which provides title at a future date. This is accomplished by a contract for deed. We can assist you with this process.
- Cases may be worked on jointly or referred. Even if you do not see your specific issue listed here, please feel free to call our law firm.
