Hypothetically, lets say a buyer's offer on a house is accepted. He has 30 days until closing. According to the contract he must come up with the money at closing. During the process the buyer cannot find any funding and it looks as if the deal will fall through. Another offer is made on the home. The sellers want to accept the new higher offer, but need a release signed by the buyer. The buyer refuses. My question is, after midnight on the closing date, do the sellers need a signed release to accept the new contract? Is the former contract voided by the old buyer's failure to find financing? Can they legally accept the new offer after informing the first party their contract has expired? My wife and I are the 2nd buyers, but we're being told the seller can't accept our offer until they get a signed release. The deadbeat buyer can refuse for months and hold up everything with that logic! Is that excuse legit.

By the way we are located in Florida.

I have a multiple unit apartment building currently with no laundry facilities on the premises. It's tough to find good tenants without having some kind of laundry on-site. I'm not sure how those coin-op services work. Do they charge you to install the machines and keep all the profits or do we lease the machines? I'm hoping another landlord can shed some light on this. If you have a recommendation, I'd like to hear it.

One of my best friends was moving 2 days ago and because of complications they were given 3 hours notice of when they had to be out of the house... She has an apartment rented but no truck or way of getting everything there. Neither her nor her boyfriend have a credit card so I let them use mine for the damage deposit on a U-Haul knowing they can afford to pay everything and trusting they would...
My friends boyfriend went to return the truck (several hours late) and today I called the company to make sure he had paid the bill and it turns out he told them to charge it to my card...

My friend paid me cash for the charges but I need them taken off my credit card.

Can I go to the U-Haul and pay them cash and have the charges refunded?
If I go to the bank and pay for it will it still show up on the bill thats mailed to me monthly?
If the U-Haul refunds it, will it show on my bill?
Other ways of keeping it off the bill I get in the mail?

Especially I don't get the "suggest to you taking part for the running time of the limited exclusive contract "part. Can somebody give me a explanation in detail?

I've never done sales before, but there's no money in a mundane salary position. I have technical skills and product knowledge, do you think I could learn to listen to people and sell tons of my product?

I am hoping to make a few extra bucks selling things on Ebay. If you have successfully made money on Ebay (and are willing to share your tips) what have you sold? Do you have any suggestions/advice for a newbie? The amount of info on Ebay in help topics and top selling items just seems endless so I thought I'd look for some personal opinions.

I was told to start a LLC in wisconsin, because you don't have to pay taxes there. But if my business is operating in Washington state, wouldn't I have to pay Washinton state taxes on any income I made there? Therefore defeating the point of starting a LLC in Wisconsin to avoid paying taxes. Shouldn't I just start the LLC in Washington?
