Residential Purchases and Sales

One of the most common activities that almost everyone will do at some point in their lives is buying or selling residential property. Whether it is your first time, or your fifth time, we would love to help you.

We are friendly, approachable and available. We act quickly and accurately. We make the process easy so you don’t have to worry.

You might choose us over another real estate lawyer because we are good at what we do and we care about our clients. We are Burnaby’s #1 rated law firm by Google for good reason.

ATAC LAW has a team of lawyers who have done hundreds of real estate transfers across British Columbia. We would be happy to help you with yours.

Fees

ATAC LAW has one flat fee for all of the following types of real estate transactions:

  • Residential Purchase without a Mortgage
  • Residential Sale without a Mortgage
  • Residential Purchase with a Mortgage
  • Residential Sale with a Mortgage
  • Mortgage Refinancing

Our fee is $2,500.00 plus taxes and disbursements.

Typical costs and expenses in real estate transactions include professional fees, courier fees, land title search fees, and office expenses. There may be additional costs that are payable to others such as strata fees or insurance fees, but we will advise you of those if they arise.

If you are purchasing, you will also be responsible for the property transfer tax which is about 1.5% of the purchase price. GST may apply if you are buying a new home.

These fees apply most of the time where you have a completed purchase and sale contract from your realtor. There are of course special situations that can arise which would change those fees. Feel free to contact us if you feel you may have a special situation.

Call 604-519-0660 to speak with one of our experienced real estate personnel, or contact us.

How to Engage us as your Real Estate Lawyers

It’s easy: just tell your realtor that you are using ATAC LAW for your lawyer, and your realtor will send us the instructions. We will take it from there!

Commercial Property Transactions and Commercial Leases

We are happy to work with you on your commercial property purchase, sale or other transaction. Our lawyers have experience with commercial property transactions. Fees for these transactions always depend on each specific transaction so you will need to contact us for further information.

Real Estate Disputes

Buying and selling property has a number of risks, and not surprisingly, leads to many disputes. We have experience in resolving property disputes, such as suing to get a buyer’s deposit back, and suing to force a buyer to complete the property transaction. We are experienced in resolving these disputes and would be happy to talk with you about your case to see if we can help.

When you’re reading to get started, use the contact form and we will get back to you the same day, or call us. We look forward to meeting you.
