Illinois Real Estate Attorney Avi Fagan is featured in a national article about tips for buying and selling homes.  

ApartmentGuide.com, owned by Rent.com, which is in turn owned by Real Estate giant Redfin, often publishes useful, relevant and timely information helpful to people across the country thinking about buying and selling homes. Author Jasica Usman interviewed real estate attorneys from all over the country for their advice to buyers and sellers about what is important to do, and just as importantly, things to avoid. Among the few attorneys from around the country she interviewed was Illinois real estate attorney Avi Fagan of our law firm. Here's where you can find the article, entitled "New Rules for Buying and Selling Homes: 4 Tips from Real Estate Lawyers".

Why did Avi think it was important to contribute his advice on this independent forum? “One of the reasons I wanted to contribute to this article is that I used articles like it when I first entered the market as a renter, and then as a first-time buyer. I spent a fair amount of time educating myself even after discussing my situation with my attorney. While I had the ability to speak with my attorney family members, sometimes I just wanted to go out and try to find information I could think through on my own, and sites like ApartmentGuide.com were often helpful.”

All of the information in the article is generalized to be relevant across the United States, and is useful in breaking down some of the common issues buyers and sellers come across. Of course, this is just a starting point, and there are far more possibilities and far deeper nuance than can be addressed in such a format, including many issues and procedures that are specific to state, county, and even local municipality. Just like for Avi, the highest priority should be obtaining independent counsel who's only concern is looking out for your best legal interests.
