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

In 2023, an individual in Wisconsin sought assistance with drafting a land contract. The client aimed to facilitate a unique payment arrangement for a buyer who could not secure full financing at the time. The plan involved a $100,000 upfront payment while the client retained the mortgage, allowing the buyer to manage rental income to cover mortgage payments until they could eventually take over the property title. As a result, the client received three proposals from qualified attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $275 to $1,050, all submitted to meet the client’s deadline of less than one week.
