I own a duplex in Upstate NY. I live in one side and rent the other. I put the property up for sale last month. My problem is, the agent can never get in to see the rental side because the tenant is never there when she shows up. The agent calls her with 24 hrs in advance, but she never picks up the phone and claims she never got the message on her machine. When she is there she claims she is too busy to show. What are my rights as a seller? If I give the tenant 24 hrs notice can I just go in and show the property? The tenant told me she will call the police if I go in and it is not an emergency. Do I have any legal recourse because she is hindering the sale of my property. If anyone can give me advice, please let me know. Thanks

I noticed inventories are at 5-6 yr record highs & prices flat for the last 6 months. But when will they begin to tumble like the late 80's ?

A friend called and asked me the following. I don't know the answer.
She has been living in a home for one and one half years. She has a two year lease. The lease contract says the landlord pays the water bill. She said the landlord called her and told her that she had to start paying the water bill or get out. Isn't the landlord breaking the contract? If he is, does he owe her the remaining amount of money she have had to pay him for the lease? The landlord told her if she doesn't get the water in her name before July first, she has to move and then he said SHE would be breaking the contract and SHE would owe him the remaining $4000.00 that she would have paid in rent. This is in North Carolina. Anyone out there know? I don't have a clue.

If you found out that:

2 years and 7 months prior to the purchase of your 100+ year old home, the previous owners had video taped the entire sewer system and subsequently removed a section of sewer pipe underneath their sidewalk. You then found that the sewer cleanout in the basement had extensive wear from repeatedly being snaked. Finally, you remember all of their belongings being placed on crates in the basement when you viewed the home...

After having repeated sewer backup problems yourself and finding that a much bigger and more expensive problem exists than just replacing a section of sewer pipe (ie the pipes in the back yard are collapsing). Would you believe the previous owners when they said that they totaly forgot about ever having had a problem when filling out and signing the property disclosure form? And that after their repair they never had another problem? And after viewing the video tape of their sewer line they said"it was a funny tape, so they threw it away."

I have been selling real estate for fifteen years and do a lot of REO listings. I have one today that I accepted. The people that lost it are going thru divorce and the man is only staying there one or two days a week. Most of their stuff was already moved out. I was told to rekey the property, to disconnect their utilities if they were still on and put them back on in company name.
My question is- Do I need to track down these people and see if they are coming to get the rest of their things or should I hire someone to come in and haul it away. The furnishings and stuff inside is all junk, but there is Riding Lawn Mower and a semi Truck and tow truck in the yard. Does anyone know what the law says about personal property left at the home that was lost. I would love for them to come get the vehichles out of the yard and the lawn mower. On the other hand I do not want to let them back into the house to gather the rest of the junk because I am afraid they will damage it even more. Could I get in trouble somehow by having the interior cleaned up and trash hauled away or would that be like stealing property?
I searched the board and couldnt find anything on this. I have not had an REO in the past where they were still kind of living in the house. The only other ones I have gotten, they had left most of their stuff there when they moved and I hired someone to come and clean up and haul off.
I would appreciate any thoughts on this. I live in Louisiana and tried to look it up under state laws. The only thing I got out of that was if they had left their belongings because of war, death in family, or they were in hospital.
Thanks,
Athena

I'm not talking only about homes that were damaged but the entire area overall.

We moved into an apartment 9 months ago and one of the doors on the kitchen cabinets was missing and the landlord promised to fix it. It's been 9 months and she still hasn't fixed it. I asked for screens on two windows that are still not there. She doesn't come to the property. The rent checks are mailed to her home address every month. How can I make her do the repairs?
