How much will a real estate attorney cost?

You can ask your friends and family members who have sold or purchased a home recently to recommend a real estate attorney. If they had a great experience with one, they may recommend someone to you. Refer to family members and friends who have worked with a real estate lawyer and ask them about their experiences. 

If you're selling a residential property, the attorney's fee may range from $500 to $3,000 or more. The higher the complexity, however, the more expensive your real estate attorney will be. Your attorney might charge you a flat fee of $950 if you are selling a condo. 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.

If you're selling a house, you'll need a real estate attorney to help you navigate the process. They can offer advice on pricing and negotiate on your behalf, but you should be sure to hire an attorney who specializes in this type of work. Some real estate attorneys offer discount flat fees for their services, but these firms should be avoided because they may be paid through the title insurance commissions.

Depending on the complexity of the transaction, real estate attorneys may charge an hourly rate. An attorney who prepares deeds can charge as high as $500 while a full-service attorney for real estate closings can run as high 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.
