Looking into selling my home as FSBO - Looking for an Attorney

Kristi Perrotta
Posted

I am new to a lot of things real-estate related, but I'm not afraid of a grind. I basically have everything ready to sell my home, except for the part where I have to draft/write the contracts. I'd rather hire an attorney to do this part once someone puts an offer on my home. Any tips or suggestions on how to find an attorney? Any tips any suggestions regarding FSBO is welcome, but I'm currently looking for feedback regarding the "writing contracts" with contingencies, part of it. Thanks in advance, and good luck on all of your financial journeys.

@Kristi Perrotta I am concerned you are looking to save money in the wrong areas of your business. Not all sales agents are created equally, but data suggests the top tier sales agents will achieve a result that exceeds the few percentage points of commission savings you are looking to pocket. You are better served spending the time and resources you are currently allocating to your own FSBO preparation researching and interviewing the top sales agents in your market and ultimately hiring one of them. It will be a much better ROI.

It's great that you are willing to grind, this business requires that type of commitment. However I recommend grinding in other areas of your business such as networking, market research, pursuing acquisition leads etc. Not selling your own home.
