Lawyers should play a key role in the house/cottage purchase.

Lawyers can:

• Confirm that the seller indeed has the legal right to sell the property
• Investigate such things as building code violations
• Advise on title insurance, a one-time-premium policy which provides compensation from losses suffered from title issues.
• Explain options regarding owning property with a spouse or partner
• Help negotiate the real estate transaction if you wish
• Review the transaction before it is firm and binding
