The attorneys (also known as conveyancing attorney) fees include:
- Property transfer cost (the fees for transferring the property from the seller’s name to yours).
- Deeds office registration fees.
- Post, petties, FICA and other fees.
The attorney is hired by the property seller, but paid by the buyer.
Their fees increase according to the value of the home.
