Real Estate Sellers

Every state has slightly different laws and regulations regarding real estate transactions. These requirements are often meant to prevent real estate agents from acting in a legal capacity in which they aren’t trained or properly licensed.

For example, in many areas only a licensed attorney can put together legal documents related to the sale of a home, because that’s considered to be within the realm of the practice of law. However, in some localities, real estate agents now use standardized form contracts for home purchases that non-lawyers can legally fill out on their own.
