We aren't ready to buy just yet, but that is definitely an attitude I need to shake.

Which seems fairly basic and my thinking is the tenant estoppel it is referring to is a simple disclosure or summary of the existing lease agreement, when does the lease end, how much security deposit is, any sort of hand shake agreement or unfinished business between Landlord and Tenant etc...nothing beyond that.In my opinion, as well as @Roy N., this estoppel goes beyond that. 

Let's see how it shakes out!

Her: No I just told you she is a very good cat.I just shake my head.

Shake hands, ask questions, and don't be afraid to speak up.

We still do hand shake deals up here:)

Other than some head shaking, the explaining usually then stops and my inner smile broadens.

I don't have much residential experience yet, but I have always wondered why the residential industry seems to get by with promises and hand shakes rather than contractual language to protect the various parties involved.I say all that to so say, as long as you are smart about the contractor you are hiring and how you go about the process, you should be fine.

I have watched a student shaking with fear so hard they couldn't put an offer in the fax machine.

As they walk in the door, I shake their hands and welcome them.
