How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Seller Financing Agreements in California

In 2024, an individual in California posted a project seeking assistance with drafting legal documents related to a seller financing transaction. The client, currently renting the property, needed immediate confirmation that seller financing is a legitimate form of real estate transaction, as the owner of the house expressed interest in proceeding with the sale. To facilitate this process, the client required a brief email or letter affirming the legality of the arrangement, as well as additional documents if the deal advanced. As a result, the client received two proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $375 to $950, all submitted to meet the requested deadline of less than a week.
