I need a few legal forms: for a rental agreement and a roommate agreement. Tried LawDepot.com; they're impossible. I feel certain that this is something which can be gotten for free.

To me, it seems like a balanced blend between the two would equate to a good life. On the one hand, great success in career while neglecting family, if one even had a family, seems like a good recipe for lonliness. On the other hand, complete devotion to family with no care of career would lead to poverty and the inability to properly provide for your loved ones. Granted opinions will differ on the subject and I invite mature comments.

I estimated the value at about $65 (very reasonable) for the food that spoiled when my fridge broke. They have replaced the fridge but I cannot just throw $65 worth of food away like that. I have politely asked my landlord to let me deduct it from this month's rent and we'll call it even. She told me to send her the list of what was thrown away and she would check with her insurance company to see how to handle it. Is she stalling? Shouldnt she already know how to handle this? Am I going to lose $65 bucks? Advice please!

I say she'll lose more money if she does, because her loyal customers won't want to fork over $5.50 instead of her usual $5.00. She disagrees. What do you think? By the way she did say I could continue to pay the discounted price of $5.00 for myself.

I am leaving my job in 4 weeks and cant leave earlier because we have a major project on and I need the reference. But every day I walk out of the office SO stressed/upset and angry that I just want to cry. It's a nightmare. What's worst is that it's not just the boss it's the two people I work closest to aswell, they are just horrible horrible people.

How do I cope?

Hi,

Since finshing a long term relationship recently,I've been struggling to survive with the amount of money I have left due to various commitments like my car, flat etc.
I am currently paying a large loan off which I had in June over 4 years to help me get a new car. Now I live on my own, I'm struggling to survive! Is there any way where I can bring my payments down on the loan without increasing the APR?
People have told me to get another loan at a cheaper APR but the problem you face is that you there's charges for paying a loan early (which sucks!)
thanks for reading and I'll look forward to hearing from you soon. All the best

its a one bed one bath condo in the northshore of IL. On the market for 149,900. Totally remodeled, granite, stainless steel appliances, pool, garage, great location. Would it be more beneficial to take it off the market and rent it for $900 if my mortgage and assessments equal $1240./month.
How can I refinance it without living there? I don't want a high interest rate that coincides with owning rental prop vers a home you live in? IS it overpriced?

For example: Today I went out for lunch and I ended up spending $10, I had a gift card, but it only had $4 on it. I was trying to limit myself to the $4, but I just couldnt! I have a hard time disciplining myself in the store and then when I come out I feel so guilty for spending it. I am pretty responsible with my money as far as paying bills, groceries, etc, but I just cant stop that guilty feeling. I am always like "I should have just brought my lunch and ate at work" so I could save some money. It's not that I dont really have the money to spend, I just wish I could save more than I do.

Hi I was under to contract to buy a home in Southeastern PA.


I have been unhappy with my agent but felt forced to use thm.
I was under an exclusive buyer's agent contract with them that I signed under duress.
I say under duress because I had travelled 100 miles early one more to see house listed by the Real Estate agent.
She had me sign a bunch of forms and put pressure on me do it quickly.
I didnt understand at the time that I signed a form in small print that said that I was singing with her for 180 days and would have to give 30 days wrtten notice in order to dissolve the buyer's agent relationship. So I felt forced to use her....I foung one place and the deal fell thru because I found out their was extensive termite damage at last minute.
Next I found another home but wasnt happy with repairs needed (15k) Plus the sellers lied about age of heater/central air
My RE agent was so pushy for me to buy house anyway, she actually took pages from the new signed contract

I am single, 52 yrs of age. I live near Montreal, in Quebec province, Canada. I was thinking of getting a modest place in the west end of Montreal. I have been on social assistance up until June, so that may be a disadvantage if the bank looks at my income report. I know nothing aobut real estate. What are some of the things I should be looking out for so I dont make the wrong decision ?
