I'm baffled by the contrast between California and New York real estate contracts. The California one is "standard" -- written once, you fill in 13 odd blanks and you're done. No lawyers. In New York, if you want to buy a house, you first get a lawyer: okay, so what do we want to do with this contract?

Bleah.

Nolo Press rules!
