Residential & Commercial Closings

A closing (sometimes called a settlement) refers to the date on which the transaction is to be completed and the purchase money exchanged for the deed, and involves many technical legal issues that generally must be handled by a lawyer. 

During the closing process, the parties must make sure that all of the terms of the sale and purchase contracts have been met, such as terms related to repairs, warranties, and financing.  The parties must also review the loan and financing documents to make sure they have been properly prepared, as well as the deed to ensure that it has been properly executed by all of the parties, that its form is proper, and that it has been properly registered with the county where the property is located.  At Austin Law Firm, we have the experience and knowledge to assist our clients with both residential and commercial real estate closings, ensuring that their interests in the property are protected and their transactions close smoothly.

Mortgage Refinancing

There are a variety of reasons to refinance a mortgage.  Sometimes a person's credit score has improved significantly since the date of the original mortgage, or overall interest rates have dropped and a person may want to refinance his or her mortgage to obtain a loan with a lower interest rate.  Other reasons to refinance include changing the mortgage from an adjustable-rate mortgage to a fixed-rate mortgage, reducing or increasing the term of the mortgage, and obtaining a home equity line of credit. 

Whatever your reason for wanting to refinance, there are a number of important legal and financial considerations to take into account before making the decision to move forward with the process of refinancing.  We have experience advising clients regarding a wide range of mortgage refinancing issues to make sure the legal aspects are properly handled and that the terms of the refinancing are carefully designed to accomplish our clients' goals.
