The process of purchasing a home or other real estate property has many steps, but is not always as easy to complete as it seems. A few crucial steps can be missed in the rush of excitement that comes with finally closing on a house. Unbeknownst to the new homeowner, they might have just opened themselves up to a real estate lawsuit. You should be careful and ensure you do your homework properly. You should consider some things when purchasing your new home.




Real estate deals can be complicated. There are many parties involved and even more details to keep track of. Even when a deal goes smoothly, there’s always a chance that it may turn into a stressful, dragged out legal battle. While real estate lawsuits are common, you can do your part to avoid them before you even put your property on the market with these tips:


Set Up a Firm Contract: A real estate contract is one of the most significant agreements you will ever sign in your lifetime. If you sell or buy property without a contract, you could leave yourself open to all sorts of problems. When creating the contract for your home sale, make sure you include all relevant information pertaining to the transaction and that all parties understand the terms of the agreement before signing it. Real estate contract litigation is actually quite common because buyers and sellers often have different interpretations of the contract they signed at closing.

Well we just have to be very careful in who we are dealing on , that is just another thing and thank God you have just mentioned it for people to understand ,base on your explanation I also advised we do not give our property as rent just to anybody we sees around because some people might even be coming to rent a particular property not really for living sakes but for the main purpose of engaging in criminal or activities or bringing in problem for the landlord or the real owner of the building.

Yes getting your document verified and having your property survey is another way you can reduce your risk of being charge illegally by some security agency. When your document are all in good condition it will always be very much possible and easier for you to be defended anytime that there is any problem..


I also suggest that anyone that is really interested to engage in real estate business probably to invest a huge sum of money should rather consider to work through a certain government organisation that deals with housings and property because with this there is always a better chance of you being recognised, this would makes it easier for you.

I have a friend who lives alone in his house that has 4 bedrooms. I advised him to rent out the vacant rooms (2 are vacant, 1 is converted into a stock room). There was a group of people who was trying to convince him to go into a partnership. The house will be demolished (it is old anyway) and an apartment will be built. My friend, as the owner of the lot, will be given 30% of the shares of the property. But before anything else, he is asked to sign a deed of sale in favor of the group (I guess it is a company). But I have a suspicion that something is amiss so I advised my friend to not sign anything until he had verified the company. It turned out that there was no company and the group (there were 3 guys) said that they are still to register the partnership business. What do you think about that alibi?
