SEO professional required

I am new to this forum and I hope this is the correct place to post my question.
I am an Internet Consultant working specifically with Real Estate Agents and their websites. A client of mine has told me that their office had let the domain name expire for the office website. It has now been purchased by a XXX website. The domain name is the exact name of the office (example "exitrealty.com" ). Now anyone typing in "nameofoffice.com" will go directly to the xxx site. Does their office have any recourse or are they out of luck. Thank you in advance for any and all responses.

Make the new owner a deal they can't refuse - and tell them (client) to use "auto-renewal" next time.

hosts usually have a grace period, and then a grace period on the grace period.... don't kniow how u missed that but yea, you can't et it back without some more cash.

maybe you should be talking to some hackers

Ya the only thing you can do now is what fathom said else this is your badluck.
