Rochford Law & Real Estate Title
Rochford Law & Real Estate Title is a Nashville firm that combines a real estate law practice with a title company. It says it has represented clients in commercial real estate matters in Nashville for over 20 years and has served the city since 1997, tracing its roots to 1936, when a Nashville attorney began handling real estate closings.
Commercial real estate work covers negotiating the deal, drafting and reviewing purchase and sale contracts to meet Tennessee requirements, leases, land use and zoning permits, permits and tax documents, securing title insurance, and closing. The firm also handles residential and commercial refinancing, equity lines of credit, title searches and reports, and investment property transactions including Section 1031 exchanges.
The title side operates as Community Title Company, which became part of the firm in 2015. Title and closing services include in-depth title search and examination, ordering payoffs of mortgages and liens, collecting taxes and assessments, obtaining releases of prior liens, issuing owner and lender title insurance policies, and acting as closing and fiduciary agent.
Fees are not published. The office is at 2200 Abbott Martin Road, Suite 201 in Nashville, and the main line is 615.269.7676.
