Services for Home Buyers

From Offer To Keys In Hand

We review purchase agreements, draft addenda, and-especially in FSBO deals-prepare a clean offer that protects your interests. Our team examines title commitments for issues like liens or easements, confirms required disclosures for older homes, and represents you at closing to explain loan packages and settlement numbers.

Services for Home Sellers

Clean Contracts, Fewer Surprises

Selling in Blackstone or west Omaha? We draft or review the sale contract, ensure disclosures are accurate, address inspection repair requests, prepare the deed and affidavits, and clear title items such as old mortgages or name variances before you reach the closing table.

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Guidance

Attorney Support Without A Commission

If you're completing a FSBO transaction, an attorney's role is crucial. Decker Law Offices prepares the contract, coordinates timelines, tracks contingencies, and manages closing paperwork at a predictable fee-helping you avoid costly missteps while keeping control of your sale.

Closing & Beyond

Verification, Recording, And Post-Closing Issues

At closing we verify the deed, loan documents, and settlement statement, confirm payoffs and prorations, and coordinate recording. If post-closing issues surface-like an undisclosed defect or boundary question-we'll advise on next steps, from negotiation to formal remedies.
