Real Estate Closings and Title Searches

As one of the most important and expensive purchases you will complete, buying a house and entering into a mortgage loan requires the care of a thoughtful and engaged professional. Throughout his career, Attorney Nilson has personally performed and reviewed thousands of real estate title searches or abstracts, as well as personally completing thousands of real estate closings.

The title search is the most important part of every real estate closing

Your home purchase closing isn’t about the seller’s water bill or adding up the amount you need for final settlement; it’s about your ownership. While the utilities and your cash to close may have their own importance, they don’t compare to the costly and time-consuming problems that come with being permitted to close on a house with unresolved title issues.

Attorney Nilson has personally searched thousands of real estate titles during his career and continues to personally complete the property title abstract for every purchase and loan closing at his office.
