Business & Finance - 3 December 2007

i lived in my old apt. for 6 years. I recently moved out due to someone bringing in cockroaches.
Anyways I fixed up that apartment so much I put in so much money into it. I have gone through 3 owners. The 3rd ownder wont give me my security deposit back. He's trying to say that all carpets were stained (only 1) hardwood floor needs to be redone. Well I redid floor does need to be restained, but who cares. When I first moved in I was getting slivers in my feet left & right.
he also said apt. smelled rotten. I cleaned that apt. I even re painted all the bedrooms. So the apt smelled like paint & bombs cuz I bomed all my stuff so I wouldnt take roaches w/me.
If I wouldnt of contacted him about my security deposit on 30 day im not sure if he would have wrote.
The only thing I should be held responsable for is the rug one stain my kids did w/iron & the door kids wrote on.
My point is he is 3rd owner he dont know condition of apt when I moved in. I need my deposit back for bills

I am considering buying a home at auction and drove by the residence and the previous owner is still there. How long do they have and what would be the process to move them out?

The job is in NYC, and when asked I gave the salary requirment of $45,000, probably what I would require in my hometown but not the big apple. They want to bring me in for an interview but I don't think I could live off that salary there, am I stuck?

I am a first time home buyer and could easily afford a twin home, but I don't know much about them. I know the market is not great, but I'd rather buy and build some equity than continue to rent. To clarify, I would own half the house and live in that half, I would not own the other half. I'm adding a web address for clarity,

Hi All! We are currently living about an hour outside of Cleveland Ohio. In 2003 we purchased our condo for $80,000. Last year, we refianced and consolated our debt for a new balance of $84,000. For that loan, we had our condo reppraised for $98,000. Our monthly mortgage payment is around $850 plus a $100 condo fee. When we refianced we were informed that if we payed off the balance within three years, we would have to pay six months of interest.

Now we have our second child on the way and would love to move into a new house with a yard and basement! :o) My question is, do you think think it would be a smart move to at least look into what kind of a loan we can get at this time. I am currently attending nursing school so we will definitely have a second income within the next year or two. I just feel like for what we are paying for a condo, we could be living in a house. I was thinking somewhere between $100k and $125k.

Thanks for any advice you can provide!

I need to calculate the weighted average yield on a pool of loans, all with different interest rates and balances. Excel doesn't have a weighted average yield formula, so I need to know how to calculate this. Someone borrowed my cash flow textbook so I can't look it up.

While the slackers are considered the cool ones.

I work the night shift and I got sick of this one particular co-worker (who relieves me) ALWAYS coming in late. So I wrote a memo to the supervisor. And now I am the rat!!

Not fair!
