I don't think it would be necessary to have an attorney. Some states now allow attorneys to partially represent a person. What I would do is not sign anything without full understanding and I would not sign anything I did not want to. Do not be bullied by a realtor, they just want to close the deal and get their money. If you have a realtor representing you they have a legal responsibility to you, this would cost you no additional money but will be split with the realtor who represents the seller. Never buy a house from a realtor representing both you and a seller.
