JAMES ROBERT DEAL
REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY

Call a real estate attorney BEFORE you buy or sell real estate.

Don’t wait until you are in the middle of the deal and you think you may have a problem.

I do not charge for telephone discussions from buyers, sellers, and agents. Call 425-771-1110.

I offer a flat fee to buyers and sellers, payable at closing out of escrow.

I am both a real estate attorney and a real estate broker.

I co-broker with other real estate brokers to deliver real estate review, drafting, and advice. In many real estate transactions, a buyer or seller is wise to have a real estate attorney involved.

If you have a real estate broker you like, stick with him or her. I will serve as your advisor and your broker’s advisor.

Read my co-broker agreement at this link.  

If you are a buyer or seller, tell your real estate agent that I offer this service.
