Residential real estate transactions require the same comprehensive summaries of purchase agreements, closing conditions, and buyer/seller obligations as commercial transactions.

The workflow is directly applicable to residential real estate with identical document types (purchase agreements, title commitments, inspection reports) and the same need for transaction overview by agents, attorneys, and parties.

Q

How does CaseMark identify critical deadlines and contingencies?

A

CaseMark systematically scans all provided documents for date-specific obligations, contingency language, and conditions precedent. The tool recognizes standard contingencies like financing, inspection, and title review periods, as well as unique conditions specific to your transaction. All deadlines are presented chronologically with clear identification of the responsible party, consequences of non-performance, and any time-is-of-the-essence provisions that make compliance critical.

Q

Can CaseMark analyze documents from different parties like lenders and title companies?

A

Yes, CaseMark processes documents from all transaction participants including purchase agreements from attorneys, title commitments from title companies, loan documents from lenders, inspection reports from contractors, and disclosures from sellers.

Q

What happens if the transaction documents are missing critical information?

A

CaseMark includes a dedicated 'Matters Requiring Attention' section that flags missing material terms, ambiguous provisions, or gaps in documentation.

The tool compares your transaction against standard real estate practices to identify what's missing or unusual.

A
