4. And if your realtor and your lender all tell you you don't need a lawyer
you're apt to believe them. I've talked to friends (most of whom have been in their homes several years - before this bubble burst) and none of them used a lawyer at closing - and none of them are stupid people.

I'm not stupid either and, as I've been toying with the idea of finally buying something, it never crossed my mind to hire a lawyer if I do decide to do that.

People have a tendency to trust "experts". The realator and lender would be the experts here and they have preyed on that trust.
