I am Tracy Thompson, and I handle the firm's real estate clients. I can assist and advise you regarding a variety of real estate issues, including:
• Buying and selling residential and commercial real estate
• Land contracts and land contract forfeitures
• Landlord/tenant
• Drafting and recording real estate documents
• Curing title defects
• Easement and boundary disputes
• Adverse possession
• Land use and zoning
• Taxes
• Water and mineral rights
• Construction and development
• Litigation
If you are thinking about selling your property, I strongly recommend that you use a Realtor® to market your property. A good agent takes a lot of the stress and hassle out of the process. And a good agent usually produces a higher price and a quicker sale than doing it all on your own. But even if you use an agent, either as a buyer or a seller, you may still need an attorney to help you through the process, especially if there are any problems.
If you decide to sell your property on your own, or if you already have a deal worked out to sell your property, I can help you by preparing the sales agreement, arranging for and reviewing any title insurance, and helping with the closing process.
Call me for an appointment in Ludington at (231) 843-8579, in Baldwin at (231) 745-4739 or email me at tracy.thompson@thompsonglanville.com.
