Real Estate Mediation


tracy1b

Real estate transactions involve a significant amount of money and is considered one of the largest financial investments a person will encounter. With such a large investment, there is added baggage of stress and anxiety; therefore, when issue(s) arise it can make the joy of home purchasing wrought with emotional strain and tension.

How parties are allowed to resolve disputes are outlined in the contract (arbitration, mediation, small claims court). AMS encourages parties to first utilize mediation as this is often times written into the contract before any litigation can be pursued. Ninety-five percent (95%) of the cases mediated to date by AMS have resolved; therefore, the need to continue with court was not warranted which saved parties hundreds of dollars in legal expenses… not to mention saving the added emotional stress and anxiety that comes with court hearing(s).

The Result: A “win-win” situation for all parties involved.
