I have about $20,000 worth of equity in my rental property and I would like to pay off approx $15,000 of lingering dept so I can just have no outgoing bills and just pay the house payment that the tennants are paying already and no bills. I am confused at what would be the best way for me to go either refinance or home equity loan or a home equity line of credit?
My credit score is about 650. thank you for the help

Im not just asking for the definition... I know what it means; more specifically I want to know, what does deferred taxes say about the company and the way that they are treating their taxes? (Serious answers only; All BS answers will get erased causing you 10 points!)

Say two people (2 females, both professionals, around 25yrs of age, siblings) buy a considerably expensive home together - they both qualify for it and they split everything 50/50. They bought the house in Feb of 07 and since Aug of 07, one of the girl's boyfriend has moved in, married her and has basically become a resident. Is it fair if the 'non-married' female expect that he pay some form of rent? Is it fair that he live there "for free" becaue he is the married female's "guest" and is not occupying any additional space? What would you do?

I've got an ARM on my primary home that is going to reset in a little less than two years. I've noticed my current lender has been really pushing on me for a re-fi close to my current rate but with the usual ripoff closing costs. I've been pushing back, as I still have time. I'm sitting at 5.85% right now on the ARM. Should I wait for another rate drop, or is it not likely to happen? Also, what's the deal with this rate "freeze". I wonder if my mortgage will qualify for it?

Does anyone have more detials on this? Does anyone know when this might pass?

I just read an article on the web about the problem with the AMT and delay causing problems for refunds. I have a question about whether or not the AMT will effect me when I file taxes. How do you know? Are there ANY clear cut answers?
Now, I did research it very well, but do not understand tax laws therefore do not understand the language of the explainations. Any simple formula, ie AGI of ... or you have to have had cashed out stock...

Thanks in advance!

My husband and I are paying so much for our mortgage that we do not have money saved or for things that are necessary. I know that we can not keep living like this or we will never get anywhere.

If we moved into an apartment and started paying rent, would we still have to pay a mortgage at the same time?

What are some ways that we can fix this problem?

PLEASE HELP!

Since we have Bush as our current President, We have a limit of things we can claim on our taxes. I know I can claim head of household but that seems to be it. Most peole say they claim their home repairs, computers, monthly bus cards, etc. I don't own a car or have children, but I do take the bus to work everyday with a bus pass that is not cheap monthly. What is it that I can claim extra. I know I'm not the only one wondering.

My husband is in US Navy boot camp.. He's been there a month and we still have not recieved his first paycheck. (pay day= 1st & 15th)The recruiters said AFTER he left that I probably won't get the check until the 15h of this month.. My rent's due tomorrow. I'm in college, and working part time, i have NO money to pay rent.
I went in and talked to my apt. manager today and explained the situation, and she said they still have to issue us an eviction notice on the 8th, and our paying rent late will go on our record. And we are also getting a late fee, (which is normal when you pay it late..) And if I don't pay it before the 20th of this month, ill be getting evicted.

Is there any kind of law or ANYTHING that can prevent us getting evicted, because he's in the away in military? Its just sooo unfair because they take FOREVERRR to issue pay I guess! I can't even talk to him either, only through letters. Its so frusterating. If you know anything, it would help a ton. Thank you so

I need to move some of my personal belongings 1,000 miles during Christmas week. There are only a few boxes, but I really don't want to rent a minivan/suv and deal with the insane traffic on the interstate that week. Is there a reasonably priced, end-consumer facing service that will ship a moderate (LTL) amount of stuff, say palletized or crated? The freight services at UPS seem to be B2B-exclusive. PODS is extreme overkill and I can't do a street drop at my new address.

I signed up for a landline last year, and paid my bills on time from about October until June. When I ordered, I was told that if I was ever unable to make a full payment, I could set up a payment plan. That was very reassuring--every once in a while, I have a money crunch and have trouble paying for everything upfront. However, I didn't expect to lose my job and be REALLY in the hole.

Well in June I contacted the company and told them I couldn't pay the bill in full, and needed a payment plan. The rep refused. I was obviously upset b/c I'd been told before that it would be okay. I just didn't have the money to pay the whole thing, and he wouldn't accept partial payment. He did say he'd extend the service cutoff date, but the phone was disconnected before the date given to me anyway.

I think they also charged me the regular monthly fee for at least two months after cutoff. Now a collection agency wants me to pay the jacked-up amount. What can I do in this situation?
