About the Opportunity

A growing residential real estate law practice is seeking a Residential Real Estate Associate Attorney to join its Charlotte, NC team.

This is a high-volume, client-focused opportunity for an attorney with residential real estate experience who is looking to continue developing their practice while handling a broad range of residential real estate transactions.

While the position is based in Charlotte, approximately 95% of the work involves South Carolina residential real estate transactions. The attorney will work alongside a broader team of closing and pre-closing professionals and will be supported by a supervising attorney while maintaining significant responsibility for their own transactions and legal decision-making.

The ideal candidate is responsive, proactive, detail-oriented, and comfortable working independently in a fast-paced closing environment. Strong legal judgment, communication, and follow-through are essential.

What You'll Do

  • Conduct approximately 4–5 residential real estate closings per day, with transaction volume potentially reaching 100 closings per month.
  • Handle residential real estate transactions involving buyers, sellers, lenders, builders, investors, and other parties.
  • Review closing documents, title searches, title commitments, and related transaction materials for legal sufficiency and accuracy.
  • Identify and address title issues, curative matters, and other legal issues that arise during the transaction.
  • Apply sound legal judgment when evaluating and resolving title and transactional matters.
  • Communicate clearly and proactively with clients, Realtors®, lenders, title professionals, and internal team members throughout the closing process.
  • Explain legal documents, closing procedures, and transaction requirements to clients and other parties.
  • Provide practical legal guidance throughout the closing process.
  • Work efficiently within a high-volume environment while maintaining accuracy, responsiveness, and a strong client experience.
  • Collaborate with closing and pre-closing teams to ensure files are prepared and transactions move forward efficiently.
  • Escalate complex legal or transactional matters appropriately while taking ownership of day-to-day issues and decisions.
  • Maintain timely follow-through on client questions, title issues, documentation, and other transaction requirements.

Requirements

What You'll Bring

  • JD from an accredited law school.
  • Active license to practice law in South Carolina and good standing with the State Bar.
  • North Carolina licensure is preferred but not required.
  • Approximately 2–3 years of residential real estate law experience is preferred.
  • Experience conducting residential real estate closings and reviewing title matters.
  • Strong legal judgment and the ability to make sound decisions regarding title and transactional issues.
  • Ability to work independently while appropriately utilizing guidance from a supervising attorney.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Highly responsive and proactive approach to client and internal communication.
  • Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple transactions and competing priorities in a high-volume environment.
  • Strong follow-through and ownership of assigned transactions.
  • Client-service mindset and professional demeanor.
  • Ability to move quickly and effectively when handling time-sensitive real estate transactions.
  • Notary Public appointment or willingness to obtain one prior to starting.

Benefits

Compensation & Benefits

  • $70,000–$80,000 base salary, depending on experience
  • Performance-based bonus opportunity of approximately 10% of base salary
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Disability and life insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Paid Time Off
  • Training and mentorship

Why This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to join a growing residential real estate practice and gain substantial experience across a wide variety of residential transactions.

You'll have the support of an experienced legal and closing team while continuing to develop your ability to independently manage transactions, solve legal issues, and work directly with clients and industry professionals.
