South Florida Real Estate Attorney: Protecting Your Largest Investments

Real estate transactions carry some of the largest financial stakes of your life. The firm reviews the contracts, clears title, and stands on your side of the closing table — for buyers, sellers, owners, and landlords across South Florida.

At The Law Office of Ginny L. Goldman, P.A., clients receive experienced representation on the real estate transactions and disputes that carry some of the largest financial stakes of their lives. Ginny L. Goldman has handled residential and commercial real estate matters throughout Palm Beach and Broward Counties for nearly four decades.

Purchase & Sale Transactions

Whether you are buying your first home, selling an investment property, or closing a commercial deal, the terms of the contract and the accuracy of the closing documents determine what you walk away with. The firm handles:

  • Residential and commercial purchase and sale agreements
  • Contract review and negotiation before you sign
  • Title review and clearing title defects
  • Closings, deeds, and settlement documents

Leases

A lease is a contract you live with for years. Ginny drafts and reviews commercial and residential leases — allocating responsibility for repairs, taxes, insurance, and renewals — so the document protects you rather than surprising you later.

HOA & Property Disputes

Disagreements with a homeowners' association, a neighbor, or a co-owner can escalate quickly. The firm represents property owners in HOA disputes, boundary and easement issues, and contract litigation arising from real estate transactions.

Joint Ownership of Real Property

When two or more people own property together — married or not — a written agreement decides who pays the mortgage and expenses, what happens if one owner wants out, and how proceeds are divided. Ginny has particular experience preparing joint-ownership agreements that protect each owner's interest.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a real estate attorney to close in Florida?

Florida does not require it, but a title agent is not your advocate. An attorney reviews the contract and closing documents on your side of the table — valuable protection on a six- or seven-figure transaction.

Should I have my purchase contract reviewed before signing?

Yes. The contract sets deadlines, contingencies, and remedies. A brief review before you sign can prevent a costly dispute after closing.

Can you help with a dispute with my HOA?

Yes. The firm represents owners in disputes with homeowners' associations, including enforcement, assessment, and covenant issues.

What is a joint ownership agreement and do I need one?

It is a written agreement between co-owners covering expenses, sale, valuation, and what happens on a co-owner's death. If you own property with someone you are not married to, it is strongly recommended.
