I want to move out with some friends for the first time and I see foreclosed properties as low as $20,000. Would a home really sell for that much or is it too good to be true?

I am selling 4 car tires with rims with local pick up on ebay, but a guy wants to buy them in another state. How can I ship it to him without having to sell my house? Who can ship them for less? I know USPS is out of the question!

I live in the northern Virginia area, and I'm open to ANY job out there, as long as the employment lasts one week or less.

Any suggestions?

We found a FORECLOSURE property in which we're interested. I've read that the seller pays the full 6% commission to the seller's agent & that the seller's agent then splits the commission with the buyer's agent. When we bought our current house, we had to negotiate for the seller to pay it. Perhaps that was because it was a FSBO? If you go it alon without a buyer's agent is it ever possible to get that 3% attributable to the buyer's agent as a "discount" on the home price?

I don't mean to sound callous, but if we did go with a buyer's agent, it doesn't seem fair that they would get a full 3% when we did the work to find the house. Plus, my husband & I are CPAs & understand finances & are good at negotiating. I realize the agent still has to work to close the deal, but is there anyway to get some of that 3% to go into our pocket?

I also read that a true buyer's agent will not sell a property. Is that true? If so, do I need to get a separate agent to sell our current house?

My mom (who worked for the phone co. for 30 years) has been a teacher for the last 15 years and is being told she cannot collect on her 30 years of SSN AND a teachers pension (works for a Cal State University) by other friends. Is this TRUE? How does the 'teacher penalty' work?

I'm on disability and my children are receiving benefits, these benefits are be used to pay 90% of my required child support. I have three children. The divorce decree states I can claim 1 child on even, 2 children on odd yrs. as long as I'm current on the child support...which I am. I'm being told by ex-wife that her account is stating that because the soc secuity benefits are paying for the support, I should not be able to claim the children on my taxes because soc. sec. is paying the child support amount. Is this true? She wants me to allow her to claim ALL 3 kids on her taxes or she will take me to court for this and other issues!

If we eliminate some tax writeoffs, wont that provide some more income for the government? Its no secret that during tax season, people search for as many write offs as they can to avoid paying more taxes or to get a bigger refund check. If we eliminate some of them(not all of them), would that help get the Government in the black or perhaps they can put the extra money into the social security fund? I dont know, just trying to come up with ideas.

My girlfriend and I have found the house of our dreams. It is an older home in a semi-dangerous neighborhood. She doesn't work, but I earn around $16,800 a year now, with prospects of a raise in January. The house costs $569,000 but we may be able to trim some, thanks to the real estate bubble collapse. Can someone please figure out what our strategy should be, in order to secure this house? We have a baby due in May 2008, and want a "nest" for our baby. Thanks.
