Do I need a Real Estate Attorney?
If you are moving to Austin from another destination in our great nation, you will quickly discover that there are possibly many features of Texas Real Estate that are different from the place where you live today. For example:
- The necessity for a personal Real Estate Attorney. We certainly have and use Real Estate attorney's in Texas, but many transactions that happen each day in the State of Texas take place without the assistance of a personal attorney representing the buyer or representing the seller. The Texas Real Estate Commission strongly recommends that you have all Title Commitments reviewed by a Texas Real Estate attorney who knows Texas law and can advise you on to matters of title, and it is also recommended that if you have questions concerning the promulgated contract documents that you will sign while making an offer on a property in Texas, that you direct these questions to a Texas Real Estate attorney. But in the end, many buyers of property in Austin today will go to closing without ever having spoken to a Real Estate attorney. (Let me be clear: I am not advocating that attorney's be left out of your Real Estate transaction, and I am not trying to side-skirt the recommendation that questions, concerns and review of title be handled by a licensed Real Estate attorney in Texas. But I am saying that the use of promulgated forms in Texas Real Estate, drafted by the Texas Real Estate Commission's Legal Committee, does in fact reduce the dependence of attorney participation in the contracting process in our state).
