The authors of this Aspatore legal title cover all of the above matters and add discussion of litigation concerns and tactics, transfers of title and title insurance, real estate loans, and specialized issues such as the purchase of condominium units. These experts also provide guidance on dealing with the Massachusetts real estate bar and meeting the specialized standards it has developed. Real estate law in Massachusetts is an active area of practice, and this book will provide key insights for the attorneys handling it.
