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!!!
