REAL ESTATE
When you face issues related to real estate and homeowners associations, we’re here to provide legal guidance and protect your interests.
-
We can handle all sorts of real estate transactions including Warranty Deeds, Quitclaim Deeds, Mortgages, Promissory Notes, and Vendor's Lien Deeds. If you have property that you are buying or selling, it is extremely important to have the paperwork done by a competent real estate attorney to ensure that you are protected.
-
We work with individuals and title companies to help clear up title issues for properties. Whether the issue is a disputed title relating to family issues, unpaid taxes, un-cleared judgments or liens, we can help you clear the title to allow you buy or sell your property with clear title. We often file quiet title actions for our clients when necessary, which clears all title issues.
-
If you are an individual or company that sells or leases property - either residential or commercial - we can help you by providing all of the necessary documentation you'll need. We prepare commercial and residential leases, vendor's lien deeds, rental application forms, background check forms, subdivision rules and regulations. We are also able to handle purchase agreements, promissory notes, and mortgages.
-
We represent landlords as well as tenants in all manners of disputes including, but not limited to, evictions, ejectments, Notices of Breach of Lease and Termination of Lease forms, lease violation disputes and enforcement. As a landlord, it is imperative that you have proper paperwork so that your rights are protected at trial. And as a tenant, it is important that you have an attorney that understands what rights you have and ensures that those rights aren't violated by your landlord.
-
We have represented associations since the day we opened our doors. In fact, our first client was a homeowners association. Jared N. Lyles has represented and assisted associations with thousands of homes, but also associations as small as 10 homes. We can advise you on your covenants, rules and regulations, dues collections, infraction letters, enforcement of your covenants, as well as assist you in making sure the Board is doing things in the proper and legal manner.
-
If you are using the covenants that were put in place by the developer that built your subdivision, then I assure you that you need an attorney to help you draft a new set of covenants that protects the homeowners, not the developer who is likely long gone. If you need help drafting covenants, we can assist with not only the drafting of the covenants, but also in walking you through the correct way to get them introduced, passed, adopted and recorded.
-
We can help associations of all sizes not only interpret the covenants and advise on what actions are proper in most situations, but we can also assist in the enforcement of the covenants through infraction letters, fines and liens.
