Do I Need A Real Estate Attorney And Inspector To Buy A New Home In Southern Ca?

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

I’m about to sign a sale contract with a home builder, the house is in Riverside, CA. i heard some comment that i only need to have a real estate agent to take care and review my contract and escrow paper, not lawyer. is that true? somehow with all the research i’ve done online i’m not so convincing of that idea. this is the first time i buy a house so i have no clue at all who is better.please advise. and if i do need a real estate attorney, please give me some recommendation in Riverside,CA or around the city. It’d be nice too if you could give me an idea of how big the attorney charge will be.
I’m also being told that i don’t need to hire a home inspector since the house is brand new and come with warranty.again i’m not very convincing. so i need more advise and opinion from more people and recommendation for home inspector too. please also let me know the inspection charge range if possible. thank you!
