How much will a Lawyer or Notary cost me to close?

How much will a Lawyer or Notary cost me to close?: Lawyers and Notaries tend to be competitive for fees charged to transfer the title of a property. One of the main differences to consider is that a lawyer can represent your interests in court, should something happen with the deal that forces it in that direction. This doesn’t mean however that the lawyer you hired is one that would go to court. You still may have to engage a different lawyer. For a purchase contract, budget approximately $1200 + fees and $500-$600 if there is a mortgage involved. Or $400-$500 without a mortgage. When it comes time to sell, budget approximately, $1100 + $300-$400 with a mortgage or $200-$300 without a mortgage.
