Assuming this is in the US? Do you not have solicitors who do all the actual legal paperwork?

It's a less used option. Most realtors have fill in the blank contracts that are generally ok. Real estate lawyers tend to be more expensive up front as you are likely paying 300+/hr to write up a contract. A realtor ultimately takes more, but it's buried in the shuffle of buying a house.

Interesting, solicitors are mandatory in the UK, making estate agents even more pointless
