I will draft your US real estate closing documents
Your US Attorney for Professional Real Estate Document Drafting
About this Gig
The closing is the final step in your real estate deal. The accuracy and legality of the closing documents are paramount to a smooth transfer of ownership. Errors can create title issues that last for years.
As a licensed US attorney, I will draft the critical documents required to properly close your real estate transaction, especially for For Sale By Owner (FSBO) deals, where a title company may not draft all forms.
This gig provides:
- Attorney-Level Precision: Ensure your deed, settlement statement, and other forms are drafted correctly and according to state law.
- Essential Document Suite: From the deed that transfers title to the settlement statement that breaks down the finances.
- Smooths FSBO Transactions: Empowers you to close your deal confidently without incurring the full cost of a closing agent for document preparation.
- Customized Drafting: Packages can include simple deeds or a full suite of documents for more complex sales.
Finalize your transaction with professional, legally sound closing documents. Order now.

FAQ
Do you act as the closing agent or title company?
No. I am providing a document drafting service only. I do not handle funds, issue title insurance, or file the documents with the county recorder's office.
What is a Settlement Statement?
It's a document that provides a detailed breakdown of all costs and credits for both the buyer and seller in the transaction (purchase price, prorated taxes, fees, etc.).
Which type of deed do I need?
This depends on your situation. A General Warranty Deed offers the most protection to the buyer, while a Quitclaim Deed simply transfers interest without guarantees. We can discuss which is most appropriate for your transaction.
Are these documents ready to be signed?
I will draft the documents and deliver them to you as digital files (e.g., PDF, Word). You are responsible for ensuring they are properly signed, witnessed, and notarized according to your state's laws.
Why do I need this if I am using a title company?
In most cases, you won't. The title company typically prepares these. This service is ideal for FSBO transactions where the parties have agreed to handle the paperwork themselves or for specific intra-family transfers.
