(are you legally collecting a fee as an agent?)

By all means, do so if you are able but do not get yourself involved in the legal dispute.

@J Beard, in my situation (a SFH with no legal requirement to supply a fire extinguisher) it was explained to me that I would be voluntarily incurring a liability should the equipment I supplied fail.

No legal advice. 

Sometimes I'd like to ask a question regarding the legality of an issue, but don't want to be implicated in anything, so  I stick to non-controversial topics.I know, having people's real names out there makes them behave (or it should).  

You will be tempted, stay on course dealing ethically and legally the rewards are much greater.

Figure it conservatively and then be happy when you beat the number.Legal:I don't see a number for legal expenses.  

In my state of Orygun you need to be a licensed foreclosure specialist to help NOD folks out... average Joe can't legally do it Other than to offer to buy the property for cash...

I am in the same field, and I got into real estate and think it works fairly well with education (if your job has some flexibility like mine)...I can recall spending like a hundred grueling hours fighting over half someone's deposit in the legal aid office and stalling the eviction an extra week or two on  technicalities (a noble cause for sure), but they still, of course, were evicted eventually with no money.

Bill has a flare for the dramatic and everything is legal and lawyers, and this and that with him.
