Real Estate

When you need the advice of a real estate attorney in Maryland and DC, Vine Law Firm, LLC provides comprehensive legal services concerning tax lien foreclosures, mortgage foreclosure defense, settlements, title insurance, real estate contracts, and general real estate.

When you need a litigator that understands real estate and mortgages you don't need to look any further. We have the experience required to properly advise you about your legal rights and responsibilities in a real estate transaction and the know-how to effectively argue on your behalf.

Mortgage Foreclosure Defense
Although we sometimes represent the foreclosing entity, most of our work is for the homeowner that is being foreclosed upon. We employ a variety of tools to help you stay in your home. It may be that you qualify for a Loan Modification, or that fraudulent loan officers placed you in bad loans, or that the current servicer of your loan does not have the proper paperwork to foreclose on your property. An audit of your loan package is performed and we then look at the possible defenses and avenues available to you. Sometimes, a bankruptcy may provide relief and if so we will refer you to an attorney that can help you.

Residential Settlements
Whether you are refinancing your home, upgrading to a larger home, or selling your “empty nest”, an attorney is beneficial in resolving residential real estate issues. We protect everybody's interests at sales closings, and help you execute your transaction so you can “move” forward as soon as possible.

Title Insurance
When you purchase real estate, you can see the land, the buildings, the landscaping and the view. However, there is one important thing you cannot see—the title to the land. Surprisingly, the quality of any title is not always definite. Having an attorney review the previous owner’s title will cover you if a problem regarding legal ownership arises that was not discovered during the initial title search. Vine Law Firm, LLC can ensure that your purchase is unimpeded by conducting the proper title search. We can also issue a title policy, providing you peace of mind, through NorthStar Title & Escrow, LLC, a licensed agent of Fidelity National.

Real Estate Contracts
A real estate agent can only present you with a pre-written contract that you either accept or decline. An attorney can draft a contract, negotiate and review it, explain it to you and help you reach the best decision for you, not for the agent's commission. For a reasonable fee you can have piece of mind for one of the biggest purchases in your life.

We also represent buyers that have already identified the property they want. When we represent you in purchasing a property we are allowed to receive a percentage of the sales price, therefore it is at no cost to you.

General Real Estate
We advise individuals and businesses in the process of selling or purchasing real estate. This includes reviewing and preparing purchase agreements, title searches, and all other necessary tasks to reduce the potential risks inherent in real estate sales. We are very familiar with the laws and regulations governing real estate transactions in the State of Maryland. His clients rely on his ability to effectively negotiate within the nuances of any real estate transaction and to "close the deal."
