RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE
A residential real estate transaction is one of the most significant financial decisions many people will make. At The Law Office of Frank E. Ferruggia Jr. LLC, we represent buyers and sellers throughout New Jersey in residential real estate matters, providing experienced legal guidance from contract through closing.
​
We work to identify and address legal issues early in the process, protect our clients’ interests, and facilitate a smooth and efficient closing.
​
RESIDENTIAL CLOSINGS
Buying or selling a home involves multiple parties, deadlines, and legal documents. We represent buyers and sellers in residential transactions and work closely with real estate agents, lenders, and title companies to guide the matter from contract to closing.
Our services include:
-
Contract review and negotiation
-
Review of inspection reports and resolution of inspection issues
-
Ordering and review of title commitments
-
Review of surveys for encroachments or boundary concerns
-
Review of lender documents
-
Preparation for and attendance at closing
We represent clients throughout New Jersey and provide consistent guidance at each stage of the transaction.
​
REFINANCE CLOSINGS
​
Refinancing a mortgage can have long term legal and financial consequences. Although attorney representation is not required in New Jersey, legal review of refinance documents can help ensure that loan terms are understood and that prior mortgages are properly discharged.
​
We assist clients with reviewing refinance documents and addressing issues that could affect future sales or transactions.
​
DEED TRANSFERS
We also assist clients with deed transfer matters, including:
-
Adding or removing a spouse or family member from a deed
-
Transferring property to a limited liability company or corporation
-
Advising on whether a proposed transfer may violate an existing mortgage
-
Recommending the appropriate type of deed based on the transaction
Deed transfers often involve legal and lender considerations that should be addressed before any documents are recorded.

WHY HIRE A REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY
​
Residential real estate transactions involve legal rights and obligations that extend beyond the closing date. Attorney representation helps ensure that your interests are protected and that potential issues are addressed before they become costly problems.
​
We assist clients by:
-
Protecting their interests during contract review and negotiation
-
Communicating with lenders, agents, and opposing counsel as needed
-
Resolving inspection, title, or survey issues
-
Reviewing legal documents to confirm they are accurate, properly executed, and recorded
