I was thinking about finishing a basement at my rehab house. It would give it a room for the furnace and laundry app., another bedroom (making it 3 beds). I would also put in a bathroom and possibly a dry bar. Is this a lot of work? And would it be worth it?

I am a seller. If I get a mortgage, and do home owner's financing for buyer, can I continue to pay mortgage while financing home to buyer cause I keep the title/deed to end?

Also if buyer stops paying home owner's financing, do I keep the house, as if they were renting?

I'm about to buy my first home (condo) for $135,000 and do not plan on living there more than 7 years. I decided to buy because I'm sick and tired of throwing money away renting.

I have narrowed my loan choices down to either a 30 year fixed and a 7 year interest only. The 7 year interest only mortgage is $120 less per month than the 30 year fixed, which is a lot of money for me.

I am also aware that I'd be able to write off a greater amount in taxes by going with the interest only mortgage, yet most people are still advising me to go with the 30 year fixed instead.

Please help.

Thanks

What is the market like for selling a home in Columbus, Ohio? I'm selling my property here and moving out of state. I have a 3 bedroom, 1 bath home that i want to get $63,500 for, and a duplex with a 3/2 and a 2/1 that I'm asking $189,900 for. How long do you think it will take to sell them? I know the market is soft everywhere, but Columbus seems like the job market is pretty strong, so I was wondering if you think it will sell more quickly.

I am getting a townhouse in Loudon County, Ashburn VA for 460K that has been assessed for a value of $512K by the county for tax purposes. The house has 2800 sqft 4 bed/3.5 bath and 2 car garage. The seller is doing a FSBO and hence the low price. Comparables in area are selling for 485K. Is this a good deal or should I wait for some more time for prices to go down further? Given the rising interest rates is it a good investment to live in for next 5 years?

My fiance and I own a duplex where we live in one side and we rent the other side out. We have a vacancy to fill, and posted an ad online. We have recieved many responses, including a few friends we know and trust. We have a couple who wants to move in, but they have 2 dogs. My fiance and I own a dog of our own, and we are considering getting rid of him due to not enough space and proximity to the road even. We do not want to allow renters with pets. Normally, we would just say no, but they say they have a doctors note for both of them saying they need the dogs for therapeutic reasons. I know, legally, we cannot discriminate against people who are disabled and need a seeing eye dog and such, but does this count as a disability, if they can provide the note? Just imagining two dogs in the living area we have is tough, since the place is not exactly huge, we find 1 dog to be a problem alot. Can we legally turn them down, or is this considred a disability? The woman just had back surgery.
