As of today, she still hasn’t made any payment and owes around $5kI have contacted a few companies that a lawyer provided me, but they all only deal with major portfolios.  

Her attempts to become a lawyer in moments like this are hair raising stupid.

Am I **** out of luck here or can I get a lawyer involved? 

Here’s what a 'co-ownership consultation' would look like:- We review an active listing of your choice to:- Build a cost-of-co-ownership model for the property which includes:- Individual ownership and ongoing cost assumptions- Modeling potential rental income for short-term rentals- Modeling financial outcomes from various exit scenarios- Tax benefits and considerations of shared homeownership- Pros/cons of different ownership structures (joint tenancy, LLC, tenants in common, etc)- Talk through the legal agreements (I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice but I do have extensive knowledge about TIC and other co-ownership agreements)- Briefly discuss some of the ways AI is making the work that goes into successfully managing a shared home easierIf you're interested, here's what I'm asking:- You’re a U.S. citizen or permanent resident interested in co-owning in the U.S.- You choose a property that’s actively listed and something you'd realistically be interested in co-owningShoot me a message if you're interested and open to 30ish minute chat.Thanks!

You can use services like LegalZoom, ZenBusiness, or Rocket Lawyer if you want a company to handle the setup for you.

- Should I get a real estate agent or realtor estate lawyer to help me with paperwork that because I have no clue when it comes down to contracts/documents regarding sales/purchases. 

I get builders risk policies for all my new builds and at least in the markets I built in Charleston SC  and Portland Oregon have never seen the fence and security and like you I would have trusted my broker to mention something like that.. fence and 24 hour security is just not something you do on ONE SFR rehab.. unless its a known high crime area like South side of chicago and now inner city Portland you really need the fencing etc other wise the homeless and druggies will walk off with everything.. when did a bunch of rehab loans in South Jackson MS same thing theft was off the charts and we had houses burn down .. but the dollars were much smaller.I know I have gotten larger policies for my bigger developments and I did pay my lawyer to go through them line by line and at the end of the day they really cant say what is or is not covered.Also you simply would not think of anything in Colusa county as being high crime .

It's like using your ex's lawyer to draft the divorce papers then just signing them blindly without getting your own lawyer to review and negotiate.

Luckily, I hosted a local guest who happened to be a real estate lawyer!
