How close to closing do you need to get a lawyer and what kind of info do they need?

you can get a lawyer anytime, the sooner the better actually as they can review your purchase agreement for you. (don't panic though! haha)

I strongly recommend Travers, Paquette and Deutschman, they are in town at 100 Main Street, and since they expanded their practice to town, (they are an extremely prominent firm in the K/W and Cambridge areas) I have had nothing but rave reviews from my clients.

I don't have their contact info with me right this moment...but speak with Heather, and mention that I referred you if you give them a call....she will take good care of you.

ok about getting a lawyer anytime - is WRONG-- I work for a real estate lawyer and you should retain a lawyer as soon as you sign the Agreement. Its very impt dont wait until the last minute for this!

I have to agree with both Valerie and Jessica. You CAN get a lawyer at any time however it IS a good idea to get one while you are in the process of signing the purchase agreement - especially on a new build - as the lawyer can review the contract and a lot of times they will cap any closing costs that you may incur from the builder. Every contract is slightly different and you don't want any surprises on closing day - especially if it is your first home.

Valerie, that is what I meant.....I just know that funkeemonkey has not just signed their purchase agreement....and I didn't want to put them into a panic.

The sooner the better is obviously the best option, and I'm sorry if my wording didn't come across that way originally.

Do you work for a firm in town?

We used Richard Furlong really nice guy. He reviewed our agreement and saved us money right off the bat. He will also do wills and power of attorneys if needed . We opted to have ours done when we closed. Mr. Furlong has done a lot of Mattamy's closings and is one of the people they recommend.
