Yes, I know it depends on what kind of consulting, but if you could enlighten me on that as well, it would be greatly helpful :)

Thanks.

my pre approval letter is for 500k and im attemptting to buy a house listed for 240 which has been empty for 600 days on a bad street and vacant for 160k if the selling party knows how much im worth why would the seller even consider my low offer . i mean if the buying party ask for a pre approval letter do i have to provide it in order to put a bid in...it almost seem like a catch 22..i feel like my realtor might not even be presenting my offer in order to earn herself more cash by assisting the selling party to drive the price?...oknow i know i can hav my bank rep redo my preapproval for the lessor ...howeer i already made the offer with the 500k posted on it which was not accepted by the way....should i get a new realtor for not advising me better before i let them see my full worth i mean she was suppose to be a professional and be working for me ....i feel as though she should have had my best interest in mind from the start ..

I'm worried

2007-08-15 14:47:08 · 8 answers · asked by J.E Lane 2 in Personal Finance

can property be levied for income tax? or is it just property taxes?

If so, will the taxing agency attempt to collect through wage withholding first or will they try to secure the property first? is a lien on the property the last attempt to collect or their first?

say someone works for a payroll company and constantly gets tax levies from state and federal agencies and this person knows that there is no way the agency will be able to collect from the wages on this person. could this person doing the payroll then turn around and kind of have "insider information" on a potential upcoming property tax lien?

I'd assume this could probably be illegal but it was just a thought that occurred to me.

This is our second time asking our landlord to fix the air conditioning in our 4 bedroom house, the first time he refused to cover the air ducts in the recommended way the ac tech advised, he just basically laid a blanket over the air duct. Our electricity bill is sky high and our thermostat is set to 68 degrees, it reads 80 as the room temperature, keep in mind it is 113 degrees outside. Even the tech said that the ducts werent connected to certain rooms, so basically the air is going into the attic or outside...We asked again to have someone come out to look at it, he doesnt want to tell us what is wrong, he says dont worry about it, what rights do we have as far as compensation or breaking our lease due to negligence?

If a car is left on the LandLord's property after eviction and is in the way does the LL have the right to tow the car or does the LL have to wait 28 days? In 2005 there was also a Senate Bill 0483 that stated LL would only have to wait 7 days to remove a tenant's personal property. Was this bill passed or was it just introduced?
