Common Real Estate Law Issues in Davie

Financing: The majority of people in Davie can't afford to make a major real estate purchase by paying the full purchase price up front. Most individuals and small businesses, therefore, use a mortgage to make real estate purchases. A mortgage is a loan given for the purpose of buying a piece of property, with the bank obtaining a security interest in that property until the loan and interest are paid off.

Zoning: Zoning laws control what types of structures can be built on given parcels of land. Typically, cities and towns are zoned in order to ensure that neighborhoods are clearly divided into residential, commercial, and industrial categories, to ensure that everyone who uses the land can make the best possible use of it, for their particular purpose

Duty of Disclosure: Sellers of homes are bound by a legal duty to disclose defects in the home to prospective buyers, before they purchase the house. Any defect which the seller knows (or reasonably should know) about, and which cannot be discovered by the buyer through an normal inspection, must be disclosed to the buyer.

Implied Warranty: All residential lease agreements in Davie carry with them an implicit promise by the landlord that the property is fit for human habitation. This warranty does not need to be explicitly stated in order to have effect, and neither the tenant nor landlord can waive it. Any contract claiming to waive this warranty is void. To be considered habitable, a building must not be so dirty as to pose a health hazard, it must have running water, it must have electricity, and it must provide adequate protection from the weather. There are many other requirements, but if a building or unit lacks any one of those, it will be considered uninhabitable.

Life in Davie

Davie, Florida is a city filled with history. It was first named Zona. In 1909 a gentleman named Robert Parsell Davie, who was a developer, came into Zona and drained out the swamplands, which were filled with mosquitoes. The people of the city were so thankful that they renamed the city Davie after the developer. Davie is known to many as a "Western town," rather than a city because many people own horses and herd cattle.

Some popular attractions in Davie include the Flamingo Gardens, Miami Dolphins Training Facility, Bergeron Rodeo Grounds, Bamford Sports Complex, and Young At Art Museum.

Now, Davie has become more city-like, and it not just a place filled with horses and cattle. Davie, in fact, is home to many small law offices. Attorneys in Davie are very intelligent, and devoted to serving their community.

All in all, if you are looking for a small town with a lot of love, hospitality, and a legal force presence, Davie is the place to be!
