Is a lawyer needed when buying or selling a house?

Depending on the state you live in, you may not need a lawyer when buying or selling a house.

In many western states, a buyer may never request the services of a lawyer because the entire closing process is handled through an escrow agent or a 'closer' for a title insurance company. However, it's usually good practice for both buyer and seller to have an attorney review the purchase agreement before it's signed in order to avoid signing away important rights or failing to include important protections.

In addition, you should involve an attorney if there is a dispute regarding the requirements of a contract, an issue regarding the condition of the title to the property, or if you expect any parts of the transaction to be difficult or require special treatment.

You can also ask a real estate agent whether it is customary in your area to involve an attorney.
