An Experienced Commercial Title Services Attorney
Buying or selling commercial real estate is one of the biggest financial decisions a business can make. A title problem discovered too late can delay a closing or put the entire deal at risk. At Schottenstein Legal Services Co., LPA, Mr. Schottenstein works as a commercial title attorney who brings more than 50 years of legal experience to every transaction.
His thorough approach helps buyers, sellers and lenders move through the real estate legal process with confidence.
Title Search And Examination
Before a commercial property changes hands, it is important to confirm that the seller actually has the legal right to sell it. A title search reviews public records to trace the property’s ownership history and uncover any problems that could affect the sale. As a commercial title attorney, Mr. Schottenstein looks for issues such as:
- Unpaid taxes, mortgages or court judgments attached to the property
- Gaps or errors in the ownership history
- Easements or restrictions that were never disclosed
- Boundary or survey disputes
- Fraudulent or unauthorized transfers of ownership
Catching these problems early gives all parties time to resolve them before the deal falls apart.
Title Insurance For Commercial Properties
Even the most careful title search cannot catch every potential issue. Title insurance protects property owners and lenders if a hidden title problem surfaces after the sale closes. In commercial transactions, where the dollar amounts are much higher than in residential deals, this protection matters even more. As a commercial title lawyer, Mr. Schottenstein helps clients choose the right coverage and confirms all policies are in place before closing day.
Closing And Escrow Services
The closing process involves a lot of moving parts. Mr. Schottenstein manages the details from start to finish, including preparing and reviewing all documents, coordinating the transfer of funds and making sure any outstanding liens are cleared before closing. His hands-on involvement means nothing falls through the cracks and every party arrives at the closing table fully prepared.
