REAL ESTATE ATTORNEY

It's fairly common that a title company or closing agent oversees things like the purchase
agreement and closing documents, but a real estate attorney may give you more peace of mind.
'They can help you understand the purchase agreement, prepare and process your legal
documents, review closing documents prior to you signing them, and ensure you receive a valid
registered ownership of your home,' says Trickey

REAL ESTATE BROKER

You'll likely interact with the realtor but the real estate broker is the person who runs the
business where your realtor is based. 'Brokers manage or own the business and are involved in
all aspects of running the business. You may or may not meet the broker, as most of your
interactions will be with your real estate agent who works for the broker,' says Trickey.
