Successfully Managing Real Estate Matters In Georgia
Whether you’re a business looking to purchase land to build new company headquarters or a landowner interested in entering an agreement with a company regarding land use and mineral rights, it’s important to keep in mind that as with all legal matters, careful attention must be paid to the drafting and execution of contractual agreements. Even a simple real estate transaction requires a party to consider a multitude of factors, from title to zoning to existing liens and other encumbrances. Failure to understand and address those issues in advance can result in contentious and costly disputes down the road

Since 2001, we have represented the best interests of builders, developers, homeowners, landowners, banks, landlords and tenants.

A Look at Real Estate and Related Rights
Real estate law is a broad legal field governed by an extensive body of federal statutes, state statutes, common law, regulations, and local ordinances. Moreover, the laws often differ markedly from one state to the next.
“Real estate” encompasses more than just the land itself and includes immovable structures, like:
- Buildings
- Houses
- Trees
- Minerals in the land
Real estate law also incorporates the interests, benefits and rights that are legally considered part of the real property, such as:
- Air rights
- Water or “riparian” rights
- Drilling and mineral rights
- The right to quiet enjoyment of the property
- The right to live on the property for a specific time or to acquire the real property in the future
