Should I get a real estate lawyer to handle my house sale? -

I am in the process of selling my late parents home in New Jersey. I live in Florida. Should i retain a lawyer to handle all inquiries?

I d get a lawyer to handle the contracts and your personal business there. Don t know if Jersey is like Florida where the realtors can just handle everything... Since you are in an estate situation... I would...

Where in NJ? In Northern NJ it is customary for both the buyer and seller to retain attorneys. In Southern NJ it is customary for the title company to handle the closing. Since you are out of state it might be best to have an attorney handle it for you regardless of the property location.

If you trust your real estate agent...there s no need for one
