Real Property
Generally, the term real property refers to land and of all rights and profits arising from and annexed to land, of a permanent, immovable nature such as buildings, fences, plumbing and heating, and minerals.
This includes the capacity to hold interests in real property, permissible interests in real property, relations between owners, landlord and tenant relations, the transfer of interests in real property, and real property financing, including deeds and mortgages.
Real property issues that typically come up for people concern:

We deal with both residential and commercial real estate.
Real estate transactions, such as purchases, sales, and leases, are governed by a wide body of federal and state law, and the requirements established by state law often differ from state to state.
