How can I judge a Cartersville agent by the way they handle a use-and-occupancy request?

A use-and-occupancy request, where a buyer or seller wants to occupy the property before or after closing, tests how carefully an agent handles risk, since it requires a written agreement covering insurance, a daily fee, and what happens if the person will not leave. A Cartersville agent who insists on a proper written agreement, rather than a handshake deal, is protecting you from a real legal exposure. One who brushes it off as unnecessary paperwork is a warning sign. Joel Boss never lets a use-and-occupancy arrangement go forward without a signed agreement in place.
