Hi all-
I'm about to go through my first closing, and I'm wondering if anyone has a checklist for closing items/documents. I didn't find one in the Stanford Primer. One of the law firms I'm talking to is asking for $25k to run the whole negotiation & closing process, or $5k for just the purchase agreement - which seems like the obvious answer is for me to handle most of the closing myself.

From what I’ve heard: never (ever) let lawyers run the negotiation. They’ll kill the deal by fighting too hard (and run up their billables). You run the show and they back you up, it’s your deal not theirs
