LoMonaco Law - Real Estate Attorneys
We are Changing the Game in Real Estate
We have helped thousands of clients buy and sell personal residences, investment properties, and commercial buildings. Let us put our team to work for you.
Here Is How We Are Doing It
Expertise: There are hundreds, if not thousands, of lawyers claiming to practice real estate law in the Chicagoland area. Many, if not most, are competent and know the basic formula for handling a real estate transaction.
We do all the formulaic things too. We make the same contract modifications in attorney review letters, help you handle inspection issues, and check in with lenders, appraisers, and homeowner’s associations to make sure everyone stays on track for your closing.
When you’re the buyer, we attend the closing with you and review and explain the documents. When you’re the seller, we attend the closing so you don’t have to, and we’ll wire you the proceeds.
There’s nothing new about this process, and it hasn’t changed in decades. What sets us apart is the true expertise that comes from practicing real estate law every single day. Generalists who claim to do a little bit of everything often overlook important details and fail to appreciate the nuances of real estate law that can have a huge impact on your bottom line. If you’re going to hire a lawyer for a real estate transaction, hire an expert.
Volume: Real estate law requires volume to be efficient, and we handle volume. We’ve done this a few thousand times and make the process as smooth as possible. When something goes wrong with your file—whether it’s an appraisal that doesn’t meet the purchase price, a well and septic report with issues, or a lender having trouble getting a questionnaire filled out by a homeowner’s association—we’ll be there. Even though we’ve perfected the process, we still get to know your file and your situation uniquely, so we can anticipate and address potential issues before they happen. And when problems arise that we didn’t foresee, we adapt quickly to diffuse and manage the situation. Our goal is that when you walk away from the deal—whether it’s with new keys or a proceeds check—you’ll be glad we were there to help
Here is why we are doing it
We believe that every buyer and seller of property should have access to competent counsel at a fair price. The Chicagoland area is unique in that almost all buyers and sellers of real estate use attorneys, and we think that’s important. Most people don’t realize how stressful buying or selling property can be and how many things can go wrong. There’s a lot to remember, and mistakes on the part of the buyer or seller can easily lead to costly litigation. Having an expert handle the process greatly reduces your chances of a lawsuit and often results in you saving money at the closing table. Everyone deserves an advocate who is dedicated to helping them close the deal. For most of us, our home is the single largest investment we will make in our lifetime. Hiring a real estate lawyer when buying or selling such a significant investment helps provide peace of mind, knowing your investment is safe and protected.
That’s why we do this—and that’s why we’re different.
