Renting & Real Estate - October 2006

I do not have a lovely, sweet Golden Ret. or a cute, cuddly Pomeranian - but I am a responsible pet owner. My dog does not like other dogs \ so he doesn't interact with them. My dog will chase cats \ so I don't have one. He doesn't like to come back when allowed to run free \ so he doesn't run free. He doesn't chew, relieve himself indoors or bark for no reason - does anyone have a small house with rent 600 - 900 a month that won't charge me a ridiculous amount for pet insurance or pet deposit? Boarding fees are killing me while we look for home but will not give up on dog.

I own a rental property and a foreigner (brit) wants to rent it out without seeing it. I found him on Craigs list and he says he's sending a cashiers check for the first month and security.

First, does this sound fishy?
Second, what company screens foreigners and what info do I need from them?

Thanks- much appreciated

I am trying to find free foreclosure listings in Michigan. Is there a website OTHER than the ones that have some catch or offer a free trial and then ask for a credit card? I don't want to have to pay to view what should be public knowledge.

We didn't sign a lease, have been paying on a monthly basis. Do we still have to give 2 months' notice?
We live in Ontario if that helps.

We are debating if its a good time to buy a home right now. We don't have the moeny down for the closing costs but we are thinking of making an offer & asking the seller to help w/ that. The possible loan is through our bank & I'm just not really sure if 7.7% is good or not.
We have bad credit. Husband score is like 560 & I'm 650 but a stay at home mom.

We are moving and have to leave before our old house is sold, we will give our realtor full "rights" to sell this house without us being around. But until it is sold we have a family with 3 kids wanting to rent the house till it is sold. Should we do this especially since we can't be here to check if they clean it up before prospective buyers come around to look at it? We are quite torn over this....

My daughter is considering the purchase of one and I'm wondering if, like a home, one can build equity over time or does it simply depreciate like a car?

My home is a 1200sq ft, 3bd 2 bath, ¼ acre lot rambler. It is in really nice shape, and is in a neighborhood with lots of kids and pets which is about 30-40 mins away from the city.

If I had a renter for this house, they are likely to have kids and probably pets. My carpet is white/eggshell throughout and worried about pets destroying the carpet; I hear it is tough to find renters if I say no pets. To give you an idea of the backyard, I used to have a dog in the house and with the wet grass, rose gardens back there, I wiped its paws everytime it came into the house because I own the carpet.
If I rent it, I would be living 40mins away and don't want to hire an outside company to manage it. I don't know what to expect if I rent it out, I only hear of bad stories such as carpeting getting replaced, tore up, not paying rent, etc...

We live on private property and have about 6 acre's, our neighbors built up thier yard with more than 100 truckloads of dirt and added a hill so put in a built in swimming pool. Our yard floods so bad, we added roughly 20 truckloads of dirt for a cost of $7,000 or so. He changed the flow of water so that all of his water dumps into our yard, which he refuses to fix...we can't build ours up because then we will dump water on our neighbor? Should we sue?

I want to buy a very small cute home in Texas. Its listed at 65,000! Its been on the market for nearly 2 months! How long can this go on? What happens when they just dont sell?

..I cannot purchase the home because we don't have the money to put down. We will have it in December... but I doubt the house will be on the market that long. *sniff*

I have Cerebral Palsy I bought my home for cash. Then, my friend asked me to put it in his name so he could take out a loan to pay his bills. I did. Now he wont contact me or answer my calls. I fear he is going to sell my home and take the money. Where would I go in a wheelchair with two cats and only $377 a month? Do I have a legal leg to stand on? I hope a lawyer reads this.
