Real estate attorneys in Arizona: what buyers ask
Do you need a real estate attorney to close in Arizona?
Arizona law does not require an attorney to buy or sell a home. Instead an escrow agent must hold a state license (A.R.S. 6-813), and a licensed broker or salesperson handles most transactions.
What closing costs does Arizona law set?
Arizona has no official typical closing-cost total. It charges no transfer tax, the county recorder charges $30 per instrument, and title insurers must charge their filed rates.
