@ Jon, Thanks for the informative link, I really do appreciate it..I mean no offense by my, oh sometimes debatable tone :)

No offense taken....But let me add a few points:A Realtor is a member of the National Association of Realtors, which adheres to a detailed Code of Ethics.

In the 'lease' part of the contract, spell out what happens if the payments are late.1) Payment is due the first of the month.2) Day 2 - Day 5 I'll need a cashier's check.3) Day 6 - Start boxing up your things...I have kids. you, mr. buyer, might have kids as well, but, no offense, I like my kids better than I like your kids.

In some cases all you are trying to do is be less offensive than the lender who is foreclosing.

Forgery on a contract is a serious offense.

No worries flipper...hope I didn't sound like I took offense or something, definitely not the case :DI would love to have a spreadsheet setup like you're talking about.

FloridaREOagent, thanks for not taking offense.

In terms of or created by the law: a legal offense. 6.

I understand it's a civil offense??

Once the time period is up, watch for repeat offenses and evict per statutes.You should have never allowed months to pass after the closing of the sale before thinking about taking action.
