When do I get an RE Attorney involved? Hudson County

[Justin Vasquez]

Hello BP,

My project manager and buyer agent are doing a walkthrough of an REO property today in North Bergen New Jersey. When is the appropriate time to involve my real estate attorney?

I'm having trouble getting disclosure documents from the seller. They say this property that has been on the market for two years and in and out of escrow does not have any such documentation.  They say they can't tell me if they have inspections on record, or records of liens or fines levied against the property. 

How do I break through that bull **** and get the answers I need? is that something the attorney can help with?
