Prior to purchasing my first house I thought the whole thing was as simple as a sale and a buy . Boy… was I wrong. Buying or selling a home or a commercial building is a much more complex process than I ever could have imagined. First I thought all that I needed was a pile of cash and a real estate agent. That couldn’t have been any farther from the truth. As I soon found out , some states really require that you hire a lawyer when buying or selling a home or commerical property. Who woulda thought? Some states require  that an attorney write up the purchase agreement and title search. Why else would one need a Real Estate Attorney ? Attorneys possess a certain level of knowledge …   a certain level of knowledge …   that can be very useful when ever big decisions are involved. Even if your state does not require that a  real estate lawyer be involved with the dealings, that doesn’t mean you don’t need one. If you are a first time  buyer of a home  or commercial building  and you are not familiar with the process, buying any building can be quite a pain. stack of paper including  agreements, mortages, and contracts can be a hindrance. If you become frustrated and confused ,  it  might be time to hire a real estate attorney. Beware, however, of the attorney that will try to take advantage of your lack of knowledge.
