Real estate attorneys in Idaho: what buyers ask
Do you need a real estate attorney to close in Idaho?
None of the Idaho statutes read requires a buyer or seller to hire an attorney to close. Idaho instead regulates title insurance agents who handle escrow and closings, with a state license and a bond of $10,000 to $50,000 (Idaho Code 41-2704, 41-2711).
What closing costs does Idaho law set?
Idaho has no official typical closing-cost total. No transfer tax was found, recording costs $15 for a deed and $45 for a deed of trust in Ada County, and title premiums and escrow fees are filed with the state.
