Eleva, WI Title / escrow state

Wisconsin is a title/escrow state: closings are usually handled by a title or escrow company, so hiring a closing attorney is optional — though many buyers and sellers still use one to review the contract and documents.

Closing attorneys in Wisconsin most often charge a flat fee per transaction. In attorney-closing states the fee is simply part of every deal; in title/escrow states it is an added — but often modest — cost for legal protection at the closing table. Either way it is separate from the larger lender, title, and escrow closing costs.
