Buying a house without a real estate agent

[Mohammed A.]

I am planning buy a house without using a real estate agent representing me. I am have bought and sold three houses using real estate agents and quite familiar about the process. However, this time I plan not to use any real estate agents for buying a house as I am getting a lower price for not using a real estate agent.

I wanted to get some input from BP members with any suggestions/guidance about what I need to be careful about buying house without a real estate agents. I am getting my own inspector for inspecting house and planning to get my own title company. Do I need get a separate law firm for real estate lawyer or Title company will provide one?

Anything else I need to be worry about?

Thanks.

@Mohammed A. You can ask if the title company has a lawyer to assist you. I just closed an off market purchase using no realtors. This was an AS IS sale that was pretty straight forward though. No liens, house was owned outright already, etc. I’ve heard there’s lawyers who will do all the documentation and stuff for a flat fee to you. Maybe worth it to look into
