I don't have a judgementDo you have to hire a lawyer if the tenant has already Vacated? 

You need to find out whether A) a mortgage/DoT was created, and B) whether it was recorded.Also, its lawyer time, especially if the loan is in default.

That said, some states have laws that say if a title company or a lawyer has to do the closing.

Computer or Smartphone, an internet connection, a blank Purchase and Sales Agreement, and Assignment Contract, an investor friendly title company or lawyer(depending on which one your state uses for closings), a bank account..

My lawyer tried to challenge the interpretation (with an appeal) but was not successful and we had to obtain the zoning approval for a second time.

A lawyer can easily find out how much equity you have and with more equity you are a more attractive target.Thanks for the input, Bruce!

One of my meetings there was with a real estate lawyer who specializes in legal contracts.

And no, you can’t charge extra rent or deposit for the ESA, but you can hold the tenant responsible for any damages caused by the animal.If this situation doesn’t sit right, it might be a good idea to explore your options with a lawyer, just to make sure you’re on solid ground.

I also dont have enough cash on hand to hire a lawyer to go after the contractor at this time (I doubt she has the assests anyway).

My dads lawyer represented me pro bono..
