Purchase / Sales Agreements

Massachusetts Purchase and Sale Agreement Lawyer
Middlesex County • Essex County • Norfolk County

When your large house purchase deposit is at risk -- your deposit that is 5-10 percent of the overall purchase price of your home -- before signing the purchase and sale agreement, beware of the risk that you could lose your deposit.

At the Law Office of Mark L. Murphy, we help clients make changes to purchase and sale agreements that create a level playing field. We also explain the risks and terms of agreements to clients so they understand what they are signing and take risks knowingly. Contact a Massachusetts purchase and sale agreement attorney at our firm today for your free initial consultation.

Like parties to any contract, all parties to a purchase and sale agreement need the sound legal advice that a real estate attorney intricately familiar with home purchase laws can offer. An experienced real estate transaction lawyer can help you understand all obligations and duties to which you are agreeing and the risks involved before you sign a purchase and sale agreement and it becomes enforceable against you.

Any real estate transaction involves an inherent conflict of interest in that nobody makes money unless the home sells. For this reason, realtors actually represent the seller, and may not have the buyer’s best interests in mind. We do. We take a holistic, big-picture approach to each transaction. We handle every aspect of every case professionally and according to a set of high standards and principles.

You're spending a great deal of money; we want to ensure you a smooth home buying process that includes informed decision making and minimized risk.
