Sincerely,E.

If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.For example: I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone.

Calling and then text would be my last choices because with e-mail you have a copy in your sent-box that you can print out for proof.  

My parents owned a home on a canal in E.

separating the cost of things that ARE related to the house only (I.E)  flooring has a different shelf life as do appliances cabinetry etc. that depreciate at different time durations your personal items have nothing to do with anything related  other than items that are needed to perform monthly maintenance  lawn mowers weed whackers etc.   

Why give someone with no real or stable income legal rights to the property?

Does anyone know the legalities of requiring E-payment of some kind?
