One thing that’s certain is that land is a finite resource. As with all finite resources, it will only become more valuable over a long enough time horizon. As a result, it is often said that real estate is the best investment one can make. When you chose to make this investment, however, it is critical that you are getting the deal you think you’re getting. Property can be encumbered by ancient easements or equitable servitudes. The individual selling the property may not even have title to legally transfer to you as part of a real estate transaction. There may be material defects in the property. For these reasons and more, it is paramount that you retain the services of a skilled real estate attorney in Ohio to negotiate and oversee property related transactions.
