Did you know that Realtors are extremely hard working and often take their workday into the night and weekends?  Of course you did! As a MA Real Estate Attorney, I have come a long way in my journey from attorney to real estate attorney to real estate attorney that acts like a team member in each transaction.   I have come to appreciate just how hard Realtors work and how difficult it is for them to manage their time. 

When it comes to working with Realtors I think that it is important that attorneys help streamline the process. We need to have an understanding of what each professional's expectations are from start to finish. 

Some of the things that I expect is that the Realtor will provide me with complete contact information for all parties at the time that I am first engaged.  I also expect to receive fully executed contracts and any amendments to the contract timely so that I remain in the loop.  Finally. I expect that the Realtor will feel comfortable calling me or encouraging the client to call me with any legal issue regarding the transaction.

Realtors can expect that I will contact the client right away and that my staff will process the file in a timely manner. Realtors can expect return calls or better yet, answers from myself or my staff whenever they call!  I return all calls within 24 hours and check email all the time. I try to be pro-active and my staff makes reminder calls and faxes to Realtors at every important date in the transaction.  We work as a team. . .

In short, Realtors can expect to be treated with respect for the hard work that I know they are performing.
