Big real estate markets have lots of professionals crowded around the trough.
You gotta have a stager to get the house ship shape. You need a REALTOR to watch over the building process. 
You need an attorney with an esquire after his or her name.
To eyeball the bank paperwork, represent all the interests.
And everyone else needs to lawyer up too.
All the chairs around the long conference room table get used in large real estate market closings. You need insurance for this, this and oh yeah that.
The tab for the layers of players, all the A – Z inspectors built into all those zero places in the purchase price tag of the real estate listings.
In a small rural Maine real estate market, all that changes. The prices for the property listings are low hanging.
Closer to the ground which means simple happens. The buyers and sellers we deal with are not just highly specialized in one area and severely lacking or blind in others.
No no, the hands on way folks are raised in Maine means you are not a stranger to power tools. Very hands on and confident from experiences growing up.
Most when you live in a small Maine town have been around the building trades all your life and plenty of DIY skills of the residents happens.
Simply watching a you tube video on how to tile, proper drainage on that foundation, anything. Reading a forum and study of the thread of comments is enlightening. 
Just Google it right?

Or to barter, reach out for others to help. And you return the favor.
So if you are buying Maine real estate property, you won’t need all the layers of players.
It is not like a court room with stacks of professionals crowded around one side or the other of a court room atmosphere.
We have full property disclosure so the good, bad, the ugly is shared before the sale. The best time because afterwards is not the time to find out about the fire that was covered up. 
Like the heating system that was bragged up as working suddenly does not.
Has not for years.
