Most attorneys who act as Seller's counsel will should be willing to do it for a flat fee baring unusual circumstances such as needing to clear title due to a missing discharge of a prior mortgage. If you purchased owner's title insurance when you bought the property, it can be used to cover the cost of any missing discharges prior to purchase of the home.

I am located in Boston and would be willing to act your attorney for a flat fee. Other than reviewing a P&S and the offer agreement, the only other essential requirement is that he prepare a deed for you to sign and hold any escrowed funds for the sale.
