Real Estate Transactions

Our broad real estate experience can serve all of your real estate transaction needs. Whether you are buying your first condominium, your dream home or a multi-million dollar commercial property, we have the expertise to help you navigate to a successful closing on your property. We have a good working relationship with reputable realtors, brokers, surveyors, home inspectors, appraisers and lenders, and we have a great deal of experience working on such transactions in DuPage, Will, and Cook Counties.

Residential Property:

With Helm & Wagner you can expect to be guided through the transaction process from contract to close. We offer competitive flat rates for most residential closings. In addition, if you are selling a property, we offer multiple choices in title companies so that you are in charge of determining title rates.

If you are one of the many who are hoping to purchase a foreclosed home, a lawyer with foreclosure experience will be essential as many foreclosure transactions have issues beyond the standard residential closing. We have successfully represented clients in attaining a foreclosed home, in addition to representing clients who are being foreclosed upon.

Commercial Property:

We have represented clients on commercial transactions for large tracts of vacant land, small properties related to the purchase of a business, and the sale of large commercial facilities. Each commercial sale is unique with unique issues. Our diverse experience with both transactions and litigation provides a broad perspective in the process of due diligence, contract termination and litigation avoidance.
