I used to be a real estate paralegal in Ohio & have looked into the FL law so I actually draw up the contract for you & do the negotiating(if you don't want to be involved), advertise on the free websites, conduct an open house if you need 1 for only $1,500! I also have connections with a Title Company if you need one. I used to do title work, prepare docs & perform the closings in Ohio, so I do have experience & enjoy doing it on the side, since I'm only 62 & am not able to work because of several health issues. Give me a call @ 513-222-2981 to chat! GOOD LUCK!!!

Interesting. I understand that you don't need to be a licensed real estate agent to accept a fixed payment associated with the sale of a house. But, you may want to explain what your legal role is and whether you have a Florida license of any type, or Florida credentials, especially with respect to preparing contracts and handling a closing.
