Real Estate Purchase Agreement Attorney in Tennessee
The purchase agreement is the contract that runs a real-estate deal from offer to closing, and it decides far more than price — the contingencies, the inspection and financing rights, what happens on default, and what the seller is still on the hook for after the sale. I draft and review residential, commercial, and FSBO purchase agreements, and I am straight about the boundary: this is contract work, not closing work.

What the purchase agreement actually controls
A purchase agreement binds buyer and seller from the offer through closing, and the work focuses on the terms that decide how the deal goes if it gets bumpy: the contingency periods, financing and inspection rights, due-diligence mechanics, default-and-cure language, assignability, and the seller-disclosure obligations that govern what a buyer can come back on after closing. I handle both residential and commercial. On FSBO and investor deals with no agent on the contract, I often come in at the offer stage and stay through the contingency-clearing period.
Contract work, not closing work
That boundary is worth stating plainly. My office does not act as the closing or settlement agent, does not prepare deeds for closings, does not run title searches as a closing service, and does not disburse closing funds — that is a title company's role, and I keep the line clear. On the contract itself, most work is flat-fee for a standard PSA, capped for reviewing a counterparty's draft, and turned around in a few days, faster when an offer deadline is in play. If you have a purchase agreement in front of you and no agent walking you through it, this is the read to get before you sign.
