I inherited this property but am still interested in selling. Can we go under contract?
Certainly! To simplify the closing process I strongly encourage you to get the estate planning process complete before we go under contract. That allows us to get a clear title.
Can you recommend an estate planning attorney?
Yes, attorney Janna Wallace. She has an initial fee of $150/hr for a consultation. Additional fee information would be provided at a later time. Her contact information is below:
Omega Elder Law firm, 919-234-7478. They have two locations:
602 East Academy St., Suite 101, Fuquay Varina, NC 27526
4112 Blue Ridge Rd., Suite 200, Raleigh, NC 27612
Do you have a proof of funds letter? If so, how soon can you forward to my attention?
Yes, I do. I can forward to your attention within 24 hours.
How long does it take to close?
We can close as early as 30 days. For more complex deals, we tend to seek longer periods such as 6-9 months to account for the various moving parts.
I am looking to go under contract. What are the next steps?
Upon execution of the agreement, I will forward that to my real estate attorney along with a $250 wire transfer, business check or money order. That will initiate my title search. Additionally, I get a land survey on the property and perform further due diligence.
Who is your closing attorney? What is his/her contact information?
Dale Thomas, Esq., Carolina Property Law, LLP, 919.782.7777, 4112 Blue Ridge Rd, Suite 200, Raleigh, NC 27612
Am I obligated to work with him on my property closing?
Not at all. If you have an attorney you would prefer to handle closing that would be fine. Dale would merely forward all appropriate forms to your respective attorney.
