NYC Real Estate, Explained
What Our Clients Ask Most
From first-time homebuyers to seasoned investors, here are the top questions we hear from clients in New York City.
Why do I need a real estate attorney in NYC?
In New York, attorneys play a critical role in real estate transactions. They draft and negotiate contracts, perform due diligence on the property, and coordinate closing to make sure every legal requirement is met. Without a lawyer, buyers and sellers risk delays, unexpected costs, or even deal failures. At Calvo Law Group, we keep the process smooth and fully compliant so you can focus on your next step.
What’s the difference between co-op and condo closings?
Co-op purchases involve buying shares in a corporation rather than the property itself, which means additional board approvals and stricter financial requirements. Condo purchases offer more flexibility but still require careful contract and title review. We’ve closed hundreds of both types and can guide you through the unique steps of each process.
Do you handle commercial lease agreements for NYC landlords and tenants?
Yes. We represent both sides in commercial lease transactions throughout the city. From reviewing base rent structures and CAM charges to negotiating build-out allowances and renewal options, we protect your position and ensure your lease terms reflect your needs—not just the other party’s template.
Can you help with private loans and investment financing?
Absolutely. We draft and review loan documents for private lenders funding NYC real estate, manage title clearance, and ensure the closing process stays secure and efficient. Whether it’s a bridge loan for a brownstone renovation or a multi-property investment, we help protect your funds from start to finish.
How early should I bring in a lawyer for my NYC deal?
The earlier, the better. Having an attorney review documents and negotiate terms at the start of the process prevents costly mistakes and saves time later. We recommend contacting us before you sign a contract, letter of intent, or term sheet to make sure your deal is structured in your favor from the outset.
