How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Land Contract in California

In 2023, an individual in California sought assistance with drafting a land contract to address the future sale of a co-owned house. The client, an unmarried couple, was in the midst of renovations and wanted to establish a clear agreement regarding the division of sale proceeds, specifying that they would be split equally. This proactive approach aimed to avoid any disputes when the time comes to sell the property. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $425 to $950. All proposals were submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of less than a week.
