Absolutely Not!!! Realtors may not provide legal advice; that 's the duty of the Attorney. And, if there is any fraud, whether actual, suspected, or obvious, in the transaction, your Attorney should be retained ASAP. The buyer has the obligation to use prudence and reasonable due diligence in all real estate purchases. Experienced Attorneys are valuable in providing guidance and expertise in these matters. It pays.

Good luck.

Sincerely,
