  It is advisable to have a lawyer in order to secure your rights and make sure that the title deed of the property will be transferred in your name free of any mortgages and/or charges and/or encumbrances. You can inspect several properties of your choice and, once you finalize your decision, your lawyer can do the due diligence and relevant searches at the land registry in order to proceed with the drafting of the Contract of Sale and other Agreements accordingly.

  You definitely need to involve a lawyer in your real estate acquisition, as proper due diligence on the property to be purchased as well a legal review of the sale agreement is essential.
