Real Estate Services
A lot of real estate problems don’t start as “real estate cases.” They show up as a surprise when a family is trying to sell a home after a death, refinance, transfer ownership into a trust, or clean up a title issue that’s been sitting quietly for years. Our real estate work is rooted in exactly that: years of resolving title and ownership issues that surface in probate administration and estate planning.
We focus on clear, preventive legal work—the kind that keeps transactions smooth and avoids disputes later.
Deeds and ownership changes (statewide in Colorado)
We prepare and record all common Colorado deeds, including:
- Warranty deeds and special warranty deeds
- Quitclaim deeds
- Personal representative’s deeds (and other probate-related transfers)
- Beneficiary deeds (to help property pass efficiently at death)
Whether you’re moving property into a trust, transferring between family members, or correcting how title is held, we make sure the document matches your intent and the county recording requirements.
For Sale By Owner and “we already have a buyer” contracts
If you’re selling without a realtor—or you already have a buyer lined up—we can help with the legal side of the deal. That often includes:
- Drafting or reviewing the Colorado contract and key addenda
- Clarifying disclosures and timelines
- Coordinating clean closing terms and avoiding common pitfalls
Fixing title issues tied to death or incapacity
We regularly help families and fiduciaries resolve title problems involving deceased or incapacitated owners—especially when a property needs to be sold or transferred and the paperwork is unclear. If the path forward involves probate, trust administration, a power of attorney, or corrective deeds, we can guide the process and get title into a condition that’s workable.
Trusts and entities for co-ownership
Co-owning property can work well—when the structure and expectations are clear. We assist with:
- Trusts for shared family property
- LLCs or other business entities for co-ownership
- Basic agreements and planning to reduce future confusion
A practical note about litigation
We typically do not litigate real estate disputes. Instead, we excel at the front-end work that helps disputes not arise in the first place: clear documents, clean title, and thoughtful planning.
We serve clients throughout the State of Colorado, regardless of county, and can work with you remotely when needed.
