Do l need a lawyer to buy an as is house for 3000.00 ?

In Florida, it is not required, but it is wise to have an agent or attorney review your contract to ensure you are protected, especially when buying low-cost or distressed properties.

Depending on your state -- either a real estate attorney or title company. Buying a property requires the transferring the ownership -- it is more than the exchange of money for goods. You may want to consider a title search -- to make sure that this property does not have any liens, additional owners or unpaid debts. If you buy the home without clearing up these issues -- you may find yourself now responsible for covering any unpaid bills/liens or only own a part of it.

Contact a Realtor, attorney or title company in your area for advice. One of those should lead you in the right direction

It is always good to have legal, professional representation.
