Real Estate Lawyer needed - Georgia

AJ Brown

Hey BP, looking for a real estate lawyer in Georgia (preferably in the Cobb County/Atlanta area). Here is what I'm looking for:

  • I have an LLC that I created on Legal Zoom that I would like reviewed. I've heard a couple of weird stories about Legal Zoom LLCs.
  • I have two properties that I am closing on soon but would be in my name. I would like the title transferred to my LLC.
  • For these same properties, walk me through if the mortgages can be transferred to my LLCs and if not, how to approach deals in the futures.
  • Answer some other general questions I have. 

Let me know if you have any recommendations. 

Thanks,
AJ

Hi AJ,

Not a lawyer, but I have some experience on the mortgage topic. Most conventional mortgages have a clause that says they can demand immediate payment if the property is assigned to another name. It is a risk you take. The options for loans under LLC's are business loans, which tend to be more expensive and have shorter loan times.
In Georgia , you must be closing with an attorney. They will all be able to transfer title. I signed that document at the same time as I closed in my own name. Good luck!
