LOL...Thanks. I've purchased two homes and buying a third this week and I've never used a lawyer. I was thinking WTF?

That said using the listing agent should in theory save you 3%; however, being your first home I'd be leery especially in todays market. Having your own agent who you trust can really save you thousands in a down market like the one we are having here in California.
