Talking A Near Masterpiece! Well done!

As a practicing attorney in a small town New England enviroment with considerable R E experience, this is a true gem! I'm appreciative.

* Food for thought: at times Atty. Guzman contrasts DR R E law with similar practices in the USA; possible additional useful info for foreigners:
* a. mortgages? How do DR banking practices, assuming a 1st mortgage on a residential parcel of R E differ from American practices?
* b.. R E brokers? Are R E brokers licensed? Regulated? Subject to governmental or non-governmental supervision? Details, please.
* c. Seller taking back a 1st mortgage? This seems t/b the common practice, among foreigners at least. Of necessity! Advangates? Disadvantages?
* d. The mortgage foreclosure process. Complicated? Expensive? Time consuming? Comments.

* Some of these questions may be of interest only to a [happy] former lawyer. Again, my sincere thanks for a job exceptionally well done. DR1, & Atty Guzman, keep up the extremely valuable info.
