All the best ones I know are full and not taking new clients.I would encourage you to hit this one hard because they get very busy in a month and they have little to no time for anything other than servicing clients after the Holidays, until May.Real estate lawyer - I use and recommend @Brad Schaeppi.

Other than an intro call, I haven't started working with my lawyer, so that's why I haven't asked him.

I was thinking about immigrant/refugee housing, social work..etc.

The article also fails to mention that overall transaction costs can actually be higher in countries where commissions are lower because the agent plays a different role, and due to needing to pay a lawyer for paperwork that agents complete here as part of their job (called a solicitor in Britain) plus VAT taxes and other closing costs need to factored in on top of the sales commissions, which we don't have here, overall costs can actually be higher even if commissions are lower. 

(I am not a lawyer so none of this is legal advice but have seen similar situations occur). 

So, do they really want to hire a lawyer to try and fight you, and have their credit wrecked in the meantime and have a terrible landlord reference? 

Who is the Lawyer against them? 

@Brittany Farrell You may just have to proceed with your lawyer and see what happens.

Is this something I should hire a lawyer/other professional for or can I just do it myself? 

Can a lawyer do this or this has to be done by an accredited IRA accomodator?
