Do I still need a real estate attorney for FSBO?

A for-sale-by-owner seller in Georgia still needs a licensed attorney to close, since state law requires an attorney to prepare and oversee the deed regardless of whether a real estate agent is involved in the sale. Skipping an agent only removes the agent's role in pricing, marketing and negotiation; it does not remove the legal requirement for an attorney at closing. A FSBO seller who wants pricing help without listing with an agent can still get a professional opinion. Joel Boss can provide that pricing guidance even for a FSBO seller.
