In South Carolina, an attorney must be present at all real estate closings. Attorneys are also needed to review the title search of the property, prepare the closing documents, and file documents with the County’s Deeds office. That means you must work with an attorney to complete your residential or commercial real estate transaction.
Gem McDowell has practiced in South Carolina since 1992 and in that time has closed over $1 billion in real estate deals. His single largest deal was for $270,000,000.
He and his firm not only make the transactions legal, but protect the interests of the business and its owner by providing valuable insight. They work with clients in Mt. Pleasant, Charleston, and Myrtle Beach areas.
