For all your Real Estate Needs

Troff, Petzke & Ammeson provides a wide range of real estate services from the purchase and sale of single family homes to complex developments.  We have both the ability to explain transactions in a manner that makes first time buyer/sellers comfortable as well as the experience and sophistication necessary to bring value to a transaction involving the most seasoned developers.

Residential Transactions

The best advice we can give you in regard to buying or selling a residence is to have us review a purchase agreement before it is signed.  Too often in the excitement of finding a buyer or locating that perfect house, the parties sign a “boilerplate” agreement that may be insufficient, not necessarily because of the terms it includes, but instead because of the issues it does not address.  Identifying and discussing these issues at the beginning of a transaction greatly improves the chances of a successful closing.  Once the purchase agreement is signed we can assist you in your due diligence and resolve closing issues as they arise.

Commercial Development

All real estate transactions, particularly commercial real estate transactions, are becoming more and more complex as the State of Michigan and local municipalities enact laws and ordinances regarding land use, wetlands, shoreline erosion and the like.  We have extensive experience not only in the interpretation of these laws and ordinances, but also in the negotiation and drafting of documents for condominium developments, mixed use developments, golf course developments and hotel developments that comply with these laws and ordinances, as well as representing our clients at both the State and Local level.  Additionally, our clients benefit from the fact we have many years of experience dealing with property that is in “our backyard” as well as "our front yard” – Lake Michigan.


Scales
Contested Matters

In addition to real estate transactions and developments our attorneys have extensive experience in contested matters involving State and Federal Agencies as well as litigation involving third parties.
