How NYC Legal handles your file
1) Free 30-minute consultation — we listen to your goal and map out total cost (transfer fees, taxes, government charges) up front.

3) Draft the contract — using templates refined over 1,000+ matters to close common loopholes.
4) Attend กรมที่ดิน with you — our staff is on-site to manage paperwork, escrow funds, and government fees.
5) Deliver originals — deed, ownership certificate and signed contract, with aftercare instructions.
Costs and taxes
NYC Legal fee starts from quoted on request (fixed quote before contract) — covering document review, contract drafting, กรมที่ดิน coordination, and attendance on transfer day.
Government charges (not included in our fee): as per กรมที่ดิน tariffs at the time of registration.
We deliver a full cost table to you ahead of the appointment so there are no surprises on the day.
Risks to avoid

Our checklist comes from 1,200+ live transactions and catches issues DIY buyers routinely miss.
