Condominiums are not for everybody. There are rules and if you don’t like rules don’t buy a condominium.

No dogs, no bicycles, no glass in pool areas. These are all valid rules which the courts can and will enforce by way of a court order. At Landy Marr LLP we have acted for both condominium corporations and unit owners, in many such disputes. Every condominium is governed by its own unique rules, regulations and by-laws. These are necessary to ensure that condominiums are properly operated and maintained, and to define the rights and obligations of the individual owners.

A real estate lawyer also handles disputes that may arise between a landlord and tenant. Wrongful evictions, damage to rental property and accidents on a persons property are other types of cases that a real estate lawyer handles.

If a mortgage company is sold to another party, then a real estate lawyer can assist a person desiring to get a lien released. If a contract is not honored, a real estate lawyer can also help one get out of a signed contract. Cases like this would be if a landlord agrees to a set monthly payment for a set number of years yet tries to increase your lease payments before your lease has expired. A real estate lawyer can either settle the dispute by notifying the landlord that he has to abide by his contract or if you wish to be absolved of the lease then a real estate lawyer can help to remove your contractual obligations.
