Renting & Real Estate - November 2006

Are there any good websites out there with advice on Mortgage Lenders? I came across mortgage-lender-reviews.com but they haven't reviewed the bank I'm looking at.

My husband and his sibling own a home together. If something happens to him, his half of the deed reverts to her, vica versa. My name is NOT on the deed. They have owned the home for 4 years, he and I have been married 21 years and we live together in the home he and his sister own. I am a disabled senior and if he were to pass before me, I know for a fact that I would be put out of the home. I need to obtain documentation that if he precedes her in death that his share of the home goes to me, his wife. He and I also have 4 children.

Zillow is used by realtors and mortgage professionals to quickly check the market value of a home. There must be a site that does this for commercial property. Zillow is free. I am looking for the commercial equivalent of Zillow. All I can find is softwares and reports to purchase.

I don't know what to make of this. Me and my husband are planning on moving into a new apartment in a new complex. We pre-leased it (meaning that we've already given our deposit) in September. We were supposed to have moved in on the 21st of this month, but decided that we didn't want to have to pay our pro-rated rent, so pushed back our signing of the lease until the 28th. I asked the lady in the front office if we would be able to go see the apartment BEFORE we moved into it. SHE TOLD ME NO!!! because it wouldn't be ready until we moved in and that we can see it AFTER we sign the lease. I asked her when the people that are living there right now moved and they moved out October 31st. I mean when we went to look at an apartment there, we saw a "model" apartment. Ours will be the same floorplan, but it's just different you know? Can they really NOT let us see the apartment we're going to live in for 13 months before we sign the lease. I wanna see it before we sign the lease

I bought a house two months ago. My home inspection turned up a few items and the seller fixed those items. In the state of North Carolina, you cannot sue a home inspector. It's even outlined in the agreement prior to the inspector going out to do the inspection.

This house, though, has been a nightmare! It's only 16 years old, but I've had a pipe burst, insulation pulled and replaced, buckled vinyl flooring replaced, wax ring on the toilet go bad, rotted out the floor, leaks from skylights in the sunroom, faulty wiring, breakers tripping, roof leaking, and this is only after two months.

What's next? This house is the money pit. I'm a single female, first time home buyer. My dad was right, though sexist, when he said I should've gotten married first. Ha!

So is there any relief or alleviation for home owners who have purchased a lemon of a house?

Me and my ex were purchasing a property together. I refinanced when we divorced and my ex signed a quit claim deed. The bank had the original deed from the person that owned the property before us. I never actually had a deed but recieved the quit claim deed when the morgage was paid in full. Should I try to get the quit claim deed changed to a deed? How can this be done and how much should it cost?

We live in a 4 family home in New Jersey. We have been here for 6 years. My husbands best friend bought this house a year ago and became our new landlord. He lives a few blocks away. My husband did all the maintenance on the house for him and we took out everyones garbage and swept & kept everything nice. We maintained the yard and powerwashed the house and cleaned the basement. Now we get a notice to be out in 60 days. It seems they are renting it out for about $500.00 a month more than we pay. We just completed a beautiful nursery for the baby. We put in drop ceilings and kitchen counter and new floors. All this at our expense. My Husband assumed we would be here a long time. We pay $950.00. We have babies and a big dog and it is hard to find a place in this city that will even take pets. We have a washer and dryer and would like an apartment that will allow it. Do we have rights and what if I don't find a place in 60 days. Our rent is always paid on time.

I live on the second floor of an apartment building and the stairs have been broken since we moved in. We were told in March that a contractor was coming out to look at them - nothing has been done. The bolts are loose and the top stair has come loose from the cement connecting it to the breezeway. It swings violently as you walk up and down them. My boyfriend has fallen three times, and today he fell and hurt himself pretty badly, his feet and legs have been bleeding (not seriously) for over an hour.

I called again today, they said they would look at it but I seriously doubt anything will be done. Seeing as how their negligence has resulted in injuries and this major problem has been ignored - what course of action can I take? I'm not interested in suing them, unless something REALLY serious happens, I just want to get out of the complex but I'm still under a lease.

Any ideas on what I can/should do? Thank You!

The current owner of my building asked whether the former owner had returned my security deposit by mistake. The former owner is elderly and senile. I moved in the building in 1990. One of the other neighbors (who has lived there 20 years) says that he returned his deposit and the landlord assumed that he had done the same with me. He didn't. What the old landlord did was give me a check, maybe ten years ago, that he said was "interest" on my security deposit. It was maybe $125.00. I didn't question him. I told this to the current landlord. The current landlord then requested a copy of my original lease with the details of the security deposit. I made a copy and gave it to him. Can he force me to pay a second security deposit? Thank you for any info you could give me.

Truthfully, I think it's a fair price already, but homes in this market are not moving at all. Others in the same neighborhood have been for sale for over a year.
