Encroachment Disputes and Arizona Property Owners
By: Christopher J. Charles, Esq.
Most homeowners take pride in managing the upkeep of their homes and properties, both to enjoy their property and to maintain their property values. However, despite your best efforts, you may have neighbors whose actions, or lack thereof, on their property start to affect your property adversely. Whether by overgrown shrubbery, dead tree limbs, poorly maintained fences, toxic fumes, or constant loud music, an encroachment on your property by your neighbors may be violating your legal rights. If you are in this situation, an Arizona real estate lawyer may be able to help.
The Real Estate Mediation Requirement: Resolving Before Litigating
By: Christopher J. Charles, Esq.
Disputes among buyers and sellers in residential real estate transactions are more common than many realize. After all, a host of considerations are involved in each and every sale—proper disclosures, proper handling of repairs, earnest money issues, property conditions, fulfilling contingencies, and title issues, to name a few. As a result, real estate transactions are ripe for conflict and litigation.
Buying Property "As is": What You Need to Know
By: Christopher J. Charles, Esq.
Most real estate transactions today include an “as is” clause. Real estate that is listed “as is” may not be in perfect condition or may require some repairs. Alternatively, the seller simply may not want to have any obligation to fix major problems with the real estate, such as heating and cooling systems, plumbing, or electrical work. Purchasing a property “as is” has important consequences that you should be aware of before you agree to complete the transaction. Therefore, you should consult an experienced Arizona real estate lawyer and understand the ramifications of an “as is” clause before agreeing to this real estate transaction.
