Is this property in FL?

50% taxes/fees doesn't sound right.

Don't take it in the britches Carlos.   Talk to another realtor and/or pull the plug on the deal now. And maybe a real estate attorney (because you should spend even more money to save money).   ;)   Good luck!

I'm not a FL resident, but those numbers seem really high.

Why does an accountant get $6500 for a property sale? That's ludicrous.

Call a lawyer in Miami.

beats me . . . but, my uncle's husband,a retired realtor no longer active did tell me some time ago to be prepared to dish out some $$  . . . He no longer lives in the USA since my uncle passed.

I agree those numbers seem high.

I would shop around.

Good one!

Why a CPA for closing anyway!  Shop for both a lawyer and a good real estate agent.

Morning.

Couldn't get back to sleep.  Not use to the birds in the morning, they are noisy.  Lots of work on my mind.
