An attorney MUST be involved in some critical aspects of the process (which I think is a little crazy... but I don't make the laws there).For instance, according to their logic, if you create your own deed, they've determined that this is synonymous with "practicing law", which you can only do if you're an attorney.I believe some states require that the ENTIRE process be handled by an attorney, and some states only require that certain aspects be handled by an attorney (as long as an attorney creates the deed, you can do everything else).I actually spent a ton of time back in 2016 trying to figure out which states require what, and based on what I could find (with hundreds of phone conversations with attorneys and title companies), I came up with the map I outlined in this blog post: https://retipster.com/real-estate-closing-agents - essentially, the states that are dark blue are the most restrictive in terms of who can conduct closings (and as it seems, the further west you go, the easier it is to close deals yourself).
