REAL ESTATE

Perhaps you are thinking about buying or selling a home, or a vacation home.  You may be interested in building your own home or in building an entire subdivision.

Edward M. Olson has represented many individuals, property developers and builders solve problems and find answers to their questions.

Real Estate and construction projects are affected by environmental laws, zoning, building and use restrictions and many other factors.  Existing structures are subject to the elements (weather) and wear and tear.  Every transaction involves a number of risks.  It is important for you to know the risks you face.  You want to know what options are available to control risks, discover risks and to shift risks to other parties.

You want to know what rights you have.  How are your rights affected by the construction lien act or the condominium by-laws?  What steps can you take to protect your interest in your property and prevent costly disputes later on?

As with most business transactions, the best way to avoid litigation is to plan ahead and protect yourself before something happens.  Sometimes you need to file an action to protect your interests or your rights.  Either way, Edward M. Olson has the experience to help you.  He has handled many kinds of real estate problems, both in court and out.
