Real Estate

Buying or selling a house? Investing in or liquidating agricultural or commercial property? Considering a lease? Protect your investment by working with real estate attorneys who are thoroughly familiar with the local real estate market and Minnesota real estate law. At Fluegel Law Firm, our attorneys have extensive professional and personal experience in residential and commercial real estate transactions.

Careful Analysis of Your Real Estate Transaction

If you are preparing to purchase, sell, develop or lease residential, agricultural, or commercial real estate, it is important to understand and plan for the risks and benefits, including the net effect on your tax bill.

Our lawyers will carefully analyze your real estate transaction in light of your business or personal goals and resources. We strongly recommend that you seek legal advice before signing any real estate listing, purchase agreement or lease, whether as a buyer, seller, landlord, or tenant.

The structure of a real estate transaction can have a significant and long-lasting effect on your income, capital gains, alternative minimum, gift, and estate tax liability. Only by careful analysis of legal alternatives and appropriate planning can potential problems be anticipated and avoided.

Secure Your Property Ownership

In the dynamic and quickly changing real estate market, it is extremely important that your property ownership be secure. Our attorneys can examine title and legal descriptions, take necessary steps to correct title defects in preparation for closing, and handle title registration proceedings. When you work with our attorneys, you will know your real estate transaction was handled properly.

Our attorneys also assist heirs and personal representatives/executors looking to sell or transfer real estate as part of an estate administration. For clients working with real estate brokers or realtors, we frequently review purchase agreements, closing documents and settlement statements to make sure no important details are overlooked and the transaction is properly closed.
