Let's say for example:
If I bought a house 5 years ago at a cost of $300K. (Paid $60K in cash for down payment, $240K by mortgage loan)

Over the past 5 years, I repaid my mortgage $90K ($15K towards Principal; $75K towards Insterst)

The the market value of the house increases to $315K.

How much Equity have I built up?

I co-signed for someone on a house lease. I run my credit report every year and this year I discoved that the rental company for the people I co-signed for four years ago had turned me in for collections on my credit report. The rental company never called me or wrote me. The chages are for moving out 1 month early (the peope I signed for informed me that they had been told it was okay, but they don't have anything in writing), plus additional charges have been added like a new battery for the smoke detector at $8.00. Grass cutting fee of $75.00, a.c. cleaning at $75.00. Changing locks for $150.00. Pet cleaning fee for $150.00 (when they paid a pet deposit).

I filed bankrupty and it was final December 14, 2004 and the people I co-signed for moved out in November 2004. The rental company was not listed in my Bankrupty.

Is there anything I can do?

I just watched this video about how there is no law stating that we have to pay an income tax. What does that really mean? We all know that if we don't pay taxes, we go to jail. Netters, what is your opinion on this?

Because of the holidays and poor planning on my part, I have run out of time to fully clean my old apartment. My security deposit was $850. Is there any way they can ask for more than this from me if I simply do not clean my apartment?

I'm buying my first home with my VA loan. I will be reassigned in about 3 years and would like to rent the property after that. The house is brand new and in a very nice neighborhood. It was initially 150,000 but got reduced to 133,000. Am I doing the right thing by doing this and then planning to rent in 3 years since I won't be here?

I once worked as an independent contractor (We're talking about 8 years ago). The person who hired me then told me that as long as my pay was under $600 that he wouldn't need to give me a w-2.

Now I run a small company that just grew enough to hire independent workers, and I need to know if I have to make w-2's for them.

SO, is there an amount where I DON'T have to provide a W-2?

What does this mean? I want to make an offer on a house and noticed that the status changed from Active to Contingent without kickout. Does this mean that I can't make an offer?

This is in reference to a house in Woodbridge, Virginia.

I am a general manager in the Midwest for a major casual dine-in restaurant. I'm fairly good in the service industry. I received the Turn Around GM of year for the whole company. I like what I do but it can be vexing at times, to say the least. I want to move back East to be closer to family (Virginia, N.C.) Not opposed to a career change. Any suggestions? I'm 34.

My father died earlier this year and I am the beneficiary. I received life insurance and got a 401K that I closed out. I know life insurance is not taxable. My problem is I don't know if my father has filed taxes in the past or not. He lived in LA and had little to do with his family. I believe that he might also owe back child support in WA. Will that affect me?? How do I find out??

Hi there, I just found this interesting bid in Mercadolibre.com.ar (the Ebay's partner in Latin America):

http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-33210069-caja-telefonica-de-campanas-bell-set-n-1-ano-1921-joya-_JM

It's a wooden BellSet Nº1 (year 1921) for antique phones and it seems to be in excellent conditions. I was asking myself at what price this bid would end if it was listed in ebay Canada.
