Our agent is not an expert on this type of deal but suggested a short loan term of 3 or 4 years and a balloon payment and written up by a lawyer. 

Fairfax county helpdesk seems to suggest that I can only do it via a RE lawyer.

in our area that is a real big deal.. we did another demo and left a few pieces of flooring an inspector came on our job determined they had asbestos in them and we violated taking asbestos items to the regular land fill.. that cost me 19k in fines and 18k in lawyer fees to keep the fines from being really big..

Hi, We have five garnishments on evicted tenants in KCMO that our Lawyer is chasing, with very limited success.

Hello, does anyone have a recommendation of a good eviction lawyer in San Diego/Chula Vista? 

.: @John C.You really need to work with a lawyer on this.

So unless im prepared to lawyer up 3k just to try and get some of it back the answer "just walk away from your deposits, im trustworthy" doesnt work for me.I have prepaid for work from big names, Lowes installs etc.

yup the foreclosure rescue buy back went away in 08 in Oregon..  1. you cannot do a foreclosure rescue and rent back at all that is illegal in Oregon.2. you have to be a licensed foreclosure agent to advise on those in foreclosure those licensed are RE brokers  MLO and lawyers.

Do I need to talk to a real estate lawyer for my own lease, or do I use a site like RocketLawyer?

Quote from @Jonathan Greene: It means there is a pending bankruptcy that has to be dealt with before the sale so they continued it and there will be a new date.
