Depends on the contractor...I have some very good subcontractors whose first language is clearly not English (And before you go assuming anything, for some of them it isn't Spanish either.) ... for them I have some mercy on their language abilities if they seem otherwise capable.If the first language IS English, and the grasp is not good, I get a bit concerned.

Any tips on language to use to attract families?

W/ some attorney's you have to use different language for them to understand the transaction.    

When you lease a space, more times than not the tenant has the upper hand and I have seen a case first hand that challenged language in a lease agreement that was deemed to be a violation of privacy.

I am here to say there is room for all to be valued and respected and feel that a forum should embrace those willing to stand up for their positions and inquisitions if they hold some form of merit instead of always trying to find fault with their language.

Also, if a buyer does show up later at some point, everything would need to be done again, as most likely the appraisal would have expired and of course, they will want a completely updated short sale package from the borrower...which in their language means "do EVERYTHING all over again".

Trust me, they know the laws in and out and would never use language that violates the RLTO.

May be you want to post what language they speak.

You know what you are talking about but the other party may not if you aren't speaking the same language.

I think that if there is one good thing that came out of the law, it was the pre-existing condition language.
