Final episode of my buying my first home fiasco.
I asked my lawyer to send me the final bill for his services.
I was genuinely expecting he would change the last payment because: 1. The contract was contingent upon the signing of the house purchase agreement, which never happened. And 2. The payment was 6% of the total house value, but his services ended up costing 27% of the actual transaction amount. In short, he made a lot of money off me. I paid simply to end one of the most macabre episodes of my life.
I started today sending messages for discount on apartment rentals, because the place where I want to live is asking too much.
Ive got the place I want, now I just need someone to ask a little less.
BTW, this is Rio de Janeiro.
One of my friends called it jokingly: here is "Hell" de Janeiro, because "Rio" and "Hell" is about the same phoneme, and the pun is impressively accurate.
