If you're a first-time buyer or you're buying or
selling a home without an agent, hiring a real estate lawyer can answer
your questions, help you negotiate, and take care of
a lot of the little details you might not be aware
of.
-
Talk to friends, family members and
co-workers, or your state's Bar Association
for referrals.
-
Talk to local real estate brokers for
referrals.
-
Call a local realtors association for
referrals.
-
Consult the yellow pages under Attorney:
Real Estate.
-
Prepare a list of questions pertaining to
your situation. Most lawyers will answer
simple questions over the phone for free.
-
Identify a number of possible attorneys and
call each one.
-
Ask how much each lawyer charges per hour,
and request an estimate of the time required
to complete the tasks you require - looking
over contracts, handling disclosures, and
helping with the closing.
-
Choose an attorney.
Tips & Warnings - When
hiring a Real Estate Lawyer
- Start
with the easiest, least expensive steps an
attorney can perform first. Sometimes a
little help is all you need.
- Many
attorneys are willing to handle multiple
tasks for a fixed price or retainer.
- Make
sure your attorney specializes in real
estate and has expertise in the areas you
require.
- It is
preferable that an attorney also be a
licensed real estate broker.
Real estate brokers and agents are not attorneys and cannot
give legal advice.
