You're not going to convince any attorney to do a document review for you for free unless you're doing something for them in return (compensation, barter), but I don't think I know of any that are open to barter.

It's not about big houses, boats, planes, and cars, jewelry, fur coats, and trips around the world-- though I've had and done my share of all that-- it's about going to sleep at night knowing that if I don't wake up, my family has fond memories of me, that I was there for them while I could be, and that the last thing they have to worry about amid the trauma of losing a husband and father is money.

Thanks for all of your advises, it turns out this agent is in the middle of quitting (or being fired) from the current broker and getting in to another; he has been sitting on doc for over 3 weeks (mostly basic REO disclosures that needed to be signed and return to selling agent) that he didn’t know how to pull them out of Windforms (Realtor Online Contract data base); asked seller’s agent questions about them over and over; lack of REO knowledge (REO Specialist printed on his card) and couldn’t care less for his last few clients…Relayed the facts above (with a little help from the selling agent) in addition to the tangible misled evident to my agent’s boss and got only 18 moths worth HOA fee ($810) credited.Yes, another rookie’s lesson learn; just didn’t think he would be that much out of line for a major issue like such; considering he’s a 72 year old guy with shallow ethic.

So my return, as we like to say here, has been infinite.What do you think?
