I'm going through a divorce and have exchanged copies of our bank statements. An extortionate amount of money has been spent with a few different companies but he won't tell me who they are and the names are very ambiguous. I've reason to believe it's strip clubs and prostitutes.

It's not a joint bank account so how can I find out who they are? Companies House and Google have shed no light on them either.

Any suggestions?

I am looking into a house for rent. I looked at contract, and I didn't saign it because of many reasons but the most reason was it said "renter is responsiable for everything that needs repairs in the house"
Even said if there's a Drout, and the grass dies, I have to pay!

Legal in the state of Arizona?!

Where can I find out if house prices are going up or down?
I hear CA homes are hitting rocks and that no one can predict if prices will go up or down. But how about prices as of today and lets say a month ago???

Here's a brief run down: I was living with my bf and going to college. Basically, he was supporting me while I go to school. To make a long story short. He became very sick, became hospitalized and lost his job.

I had to move out suddenly and support myself. I did so very hastily and ended up in a house that wasn't my usual standard of living but given the pressure of school and finding a job, there was no time to keep looking around.

The main tenant gave me a key and didn't want me to sign an application or anything. I thought that was odd but proceeded anyways. I have receipts for my deposit and monthly rent. However, I have no signed agreement for living here.

Here's the problem: Ever since, I've lived here. I've noticed this house is literally falling apart. The electrical goes out regularly and you have to constantly go to the garage to reset the breakers. The kitchen tiles are cracked to the cement. There are holes and yellow spots in the ceiling,

I recently signed a 7 month lease with my best friend. She and I are the only two people on the lease. She decided to move her girlfriend in who smokes marijuana in their room. I am pregnant. I am also somewhat moody so all of these factors have made living together impossible. Yesterday we got into a fight over the phone and she told me she was going to set my things on fire. I moved out, knowing it was not a safe environment for me, or the baby growing in my tummy, but now her friend is theatening to sue (she works for a lawyer). There is nothing in the lease about this type of situation, or breaking the lease. Can she sue me? What can I do?

I took out a mortgage to purchase my home before my husband and I got married although he did come and live in it with me. We are married now and I was wondering, if we split up, would I have to share the house ? Or is it all mine ? I have never added his name to anything its all still in my name.
