This thread seems to be a good place for this post. I'm about to purchase a residential property with a private seller & no agent involved. I have experience buying & selling but in another state. The property includes lot A with the residence on it, and a portion of separately deeded lot B. Current owner plans to divide lot b & keep her portion for access to another adjacent parcel she owns. When putting together the buy/sell what would be the best way to clarify this? Do I need a real estate attorney to draw this up--we are all working quickly and efficiently together so I'd prefer to keep it simple, but don't want to overlook anything.
