How much will a real estate attorney cost?

Asking people you know, who recently sold or bought a house, is a great place to start looking for a quality real estate attorney. You might be recommended by someone they know who had a good experience with one. Ask your family and friends for referrals. 

An attorney's fee ranges from $500 to $3000 or more if you're selling residential property. However, the higher the complexity, the more your real estate attorney will charge. For example, if you're selling a condo, your attorney may charge a flat fee of $950. If your real estate transaction is more complicated, you should expect to pay around $3,000 or more. The complexity of the transaction, as well as the level of legal expertise required, will affect the cost of your investment.

A real estate attorney is needed to assist you in selling your house.  Although they can provide advice and negotiate for you, it's important to find an attorney who specializes in this type of work. While some real estate lawyers offer flat fees at a discount, they should be avoided as they could be paid through title insurance commissions.

The complexity of a transaction may affect the hourly charge for real estate attorneys. A deed preparation attorney can charge up to $500, while a full-service real estate closing attorney can cost as much as $1,000 or more. The specific role of each attorney and the size of the firm will determine the final fee. Some real estate lawyers handle the entire process while others offer general transaction counsel.
