You are always welcome to sell the property on your own, you do not need to hire the services of a real estate company. and if you want to pay peanuts you will get monkeys. Do you really want to hand over the keys to your home to a monkey? You can do all that "nothing" on your own anytime.
meanwhile the legal profession in the Bahamas presents as a joke? the Bahamas Bar Association is a wild wild west and anything goes, lawyers literally get away with murder in this country daily and the powers that be are absolutely powerless to stop it so they go after the easy target of the real estate profession who have no control over anything. its laughable how little understanding DIR and the Govt are about how the real world actually works.
is obrien openly admitting that lawyers sit on conveyance documents and do not send them in for recording as they should within 24 to 48 hours of execution? Are the lawyers doing shady things and being lazy and not sending in the docs for recording for up to 6 months? Should that not be grounds for disbarment? What about if a lawyer 'conveniently' forgets to record the document and pockets the tax payment? Should that not be auto disbarment? asking for a friend? about time the Bar association is more than just hot air
you mean like how Bahamians are not allowed to gamble in casinos? That is blatant visible undeniable discrimination against our own. it harkens back to the days of jim crow and burma road no? No one bothers to say anything but if you allow these small discriminations then the larger ones are more digestable.
just make attorneys accountable please. They are holding the country hostage and this is just silly bandaid that will do nothing to help. Holding someone to account for something they have literally zero control over is like talking to a post turtle. Fillup and lost the plot
as far as I understand it, the bill passed the house and maybe the senate? not sure about the senate, we never heard anything further. As far as I know it has not been gazetted and therefore the bill is not law and not in force kind of like that left turn on red plan a few years ago. The esteemed constabulary don't want it to happen because it takes away an easy way to lock someone up with little evidence or reason.
