@Doug Pretorius has long used lease & purchase options as a core business practice and would have a better idea of what is still possible in Canada and where you might dance the the grey areas w/r to recent CRA interpretations.

For example, direct employees of a property owner engaging in property management for that owner need not be licensedRef: http://www.allpropertymanagement.com/propertylaw/p...After circling around a half a dozen times, I am going to say that I have interpreted the answer now as NO, and my reason for this is because of the fact I am the owner of the company, and we are not taking a fee from others.But I still feel it might be worth Learning if I can Hang a realtor license without working for a Broker.

In this part of Arizona, since there is so much vacant "useless" land that people just let go, not realizing what they got - remote, off grid land, with no water and in many cases no roads to them -  when they purchased it for pennies, it is common for "hobby" investors to foreclose on their own, so much so that many counties have self help packets to foreclose the properties which is what I am interpreting. 

In other words, your interpretation is the problem. 

i had one recently... it was bizzare, i can't even explain it. she was an interpreter in seattle, just moved to michigan. arab woman, heavy accent. pay was $8.25/hr, but husband had lived here and was making 65k yearly. she had a realtor and wanted to give me money on the spot in order to start cleaning before her husband came from seattle with the move in truck. we said no, contact our agent. 3 days later they meet my agent and he is like "where is the husband?

Fixed incomes for the retired set are fixed dollar amounts that lose purchasing power over time.I'm open to alternative interpretations of the facts here.

Or are you interpreting it's silence as meaning that the contract law is inapplicable.

Kristine Marie PoeThe landlord doesn't need a translator so much as an interpreter (someone like Marcia) to facilitate communication with the prospective tenants.Here, while we are required to provide our lease and documentation only in English or French (the official languages), we cannot reject a candidate simple because s/he does not have a fluent command of either language.  

I do think that you have a good point about having the interpreter as the main point of contact but what happens if the tenants and the interpreter have a falling out and he no longer wants to interpret for them, or he no longer has their best interest at heart?

That way since you did not turn them down based on the check you are not liable for unequal interpretation.
