Re: contract

congrats! your attorney should be looking out for in this respect. we're just about to go into contract and the attorney's are going back & forth with the contracts language. our atty just didn't like how the seller's attorney made some of the language unclear. so we're comfortable leaving it in his hands.

Re: contract

I agree with the PP, I let the lawyer handle most of it. He had done this thousands of times and we never had.

Congrats and good luck! Chat Icon

Re: contract

The biggest thing you want to ask the lawyer is to find out what is going or staying.

Make sure you ask the attorney to spell out everything in the contract that is listed as staying, and things that are listed as going and modify whatever you feel is necessary.

Things like window treatments is a good example. Some sellers take them. Some leave them. You should know this before you sign.
