Residential Real Estate Sellers
We worked with Adam Diamond and his team when selling our home. They were infinitely professional, readily accessible and highly communicative: they were a dream to work with from the very beginning of the process. They provided succinct explanations of procedures, helpful advice on how to handle any hiccups along the way, and peace of mind, especially on the day of closing. We knew that this aspect of the sale of our house was in extremely capable hands with Adam Diamond! We would HIGHLY recommend Diamond Real Estate Law for anyone's legal needs!

At the beginning of the process, our real estate attorneys are available to answer any legal questions you have about your listing agreement with your realtor or offers from potential buyers. Once you accept an offer, we will review the contract and request any recommended changes to clarify the terms of the deal. We will review the title of your property to make sure you can provide the Buyer with clear title and the title insurance required by most contracts. If there are any title problems we will help you clear them. We will prepare your closing documents ahead of time so you can pre-sign them and not have to sit at the closing and watch the Buyer sign a mountain of loan documents. When closing time comes, we will review the settlement statement breakdown on your behalf and make sure that you are only paying for the things you agreed to. Most importantly, we will give you a call once your check is ready or the wire with your money has been sent to your bank account.
