Attorney's fees, closing fees, other fees, and professional estimator fees
are, as indicated in previous responses, not deductible as expenses for 
buying a house.  However, if you met the requirements for moving expenses
as a result of moving to the house in question, I believe that some, if not
all of those fees are deductible under moving expenses.  I, likewise, am
not a tax professional, but did deduct some attorneys fees as part of a
job-related move.  See publication 17.
