Bufete for real estate law

Run title reviews, review contracts and gather the documents for every closing in one place.

Stages of a real estate deal

A purchase goes through five stages. In each one Bufete does the first read or the first draft, and your team reviews it.

  1. 01

    Title review

    You read the title, the encumbrance certificate and the survey.

    Risk

    A mortgage or a lien shows up the week of the signing.

  2. 02

    Leases

    You read the lease of every tenant in the property.

    Risk

    A renewal notice deadline passes without anyone noticing.

  3. 03

    Contract

    You negotiate and draft the promise to sell and the purchase agreement.

    Risk

    A clause leaves the client without their down payment.

  4. 04

    Closing

    You gather the documents from the parties and the bank.

    Risk

    A document is missing on the day of the signing.

  5. 05

    Recording and handover

    You pay the taxes and record the sale.

    Risk

    A payment or recording deadline is missed.

Problem

An unreleased mortgage or a lien that shows up the week of the signing delays the closing.

Find the encumbrances before closing

Upload the title, the encumbrance certificate and the survey. Bufete reads them and lists each encumbrance with the document and page where it appears.

  • Mortgages, liens, easements and unpaid taxes
  • Each encumbrance cites its document and page
  • Area differences between the title and the survey
Problem

A building with tenants comes with one lease per unit. Reading each one by hand takes hours.

Put every lease in one table

Bufete reads the leases of the property and puts the same data from each one in a table.

  • Rent, expiration, renewal and deposit for each unit
  • Each value opens its citation in the lease
  • Flags the values you should review
Problem

A poorly written clause leaves the buyer without their down payment or with a mortgage nobody released.

Review the purchase agreement with your firm's criteria

Bufete reviews the contract from your client's side and shows each finding next to the clause that causes it.

  • Findings ranked by priority
  • Each finding comes with the recommended position
  • You decide what needs a change
Problem

Copying the contract from the last deal leaves names, amounts and dates from another client.

Draft the contract from your template

Bufete creates the lease or the purchase agreement with your template and the property data. You ask for changes and review them in the editor.

  • Leases, promises to sell, purchase agreements and powers of attorney
  • The data comes from the client's documents
  • Accept or reject each proposed change
Problem

The closing is delayed when a resolution, a power of attorney or the bank letter is missing on the day of the signing.

Request the closing documents from the client

Request each document from Bufete. The client uploads it in their portal and it is saved in the project.

  • A deadline for each document
  • Status of each request: pending or received
  • A notice when the client uploads a document
Problem

An expired financing condition or an unsent renewal notice costs the client money.

Track the dates of every deal

The calendar brings together the dates of all your projects and shows who is responsible for each one.

  • Conditions, signing, tax payments and recording
  • Alerts for unconfirmed dates
  • One owner for each date
Who it is for
  • Real estate transaction lawyers
  • Firms that handle commercial leases
  • Legal teams at real estate companies
