Most mortgage companies use a real estate attorney (or title company) to perform your closing. It is typical for the attorney to be willing to review the purchase and sale for you, either at no cost or for a minimal charge. In most cases, these attorneys can do a sufficient job helping you. Keep in mind that even though they will help you, they do work for the mortgage company. If your home purchase is more complicated, then you may think about finding a separate attorney. You may also be able to suggest an attorney that you or your real estate buyer agent trusts and ask your lender to use that person for the closing.
