My sister recently became ill and unable to make her mortgage payments. I tried to buy it from her as investment property and all was going well until the underwriter found out that we was relatives, they told me that they couldn't give me the loan, because in Texas there is a law against a brother or sister selling real estate to each other. If this is true please refer me to the source of this law, or tell me about it.

I will try to make this short, came home today saw a note on my door (second note, first one I got 3 months or so ago) complaining about my dog (first note was same in natural) saying my dog barks etc, which he doesnt trust me. The note today actually said he was barking at 9am, he was with me hiking at that time so I know someone is messing with me. Now to my ?, what are my options in terms of my lease and the building I live. I have no clue who is leaving them altough I have a guess, but if this doesnt stop can I ask the building owner to void my lease since obvioulsy this isnt how I want to live. If I left early I would pay dearly for leaving before my lease is up. Thanks for any advise. Happy Holidays!!

I received an invitation in the mail to be a "VIP guest" to hear Donald's story from his daughter Ivanka and 4 self made experts that will discuss wealth creating secrets and strategies. And receive a copy of "TRUMP - THnk LIke a Billionare". Says the conference will talk about real estate investing, slashing capital gains, protecting assets, etc. It is free to attend, but is it worth going? I am interested in buying investment property. Will I be a captive audience for them to pitch me buying something or will I get immediate value?

We are selling by owner, but we have our house listed in the MLS. We are paying a 3% commission to a buyer's agent. We have listed our house according to a realtor's recommendation, based on comps in the area. We have gotten over 20 people come through our house in the last 3 months (over 70 since it's been on the market--at about $20K over what it's currently listed at.) No one has made an offer yet. When I ask realtors for feedback, the only thing they say is wrong with the house is that it's too close to a highway. (Our neighbors on one side and behind us have a brick wall in the back yard that backs to the highway. We do not have it directly in our yard, but you can definitely hear the noise.) But realtors tell us they think the house is priced right. Should we drop our price again? Or should we wait it out until sping? Should we put money into the house to make it perfectly updated? (It would cost about $15K).

I have a tenant who has not paid rent for 2 months and is stealing my electricity (ran an extension cord to the basement). We filed papers with the court for an eviction hearing but she will not answer the door for the process server. The police refuse to help. I can't shut off the heat or water (which I pay for) to the apartment because there is no way to separate the service. I live out of state. What can I do to get her out?
