I'm renting an apartment out. What is the standard multiplier for the rent to determine if their salary qualifies an applicant for rent? 40 x rent? 50 x rent? 60 x rent?

I am thinking of switching apartments this spring (April), but should I wait another 6 months (at April) and see if home prices drop even further? Maybe by then I might be able to buy a new condo if prices continue to drop. What does everyone think on this and what would you do in this situation? Thanks!

we rent an apartment, last night my mom came to drop off some things and as she left she tripped over the curb i guess you would call it. it's those cement blocks you pull your car up to. anyway they are the same color as the pavement and she didn't see it because it was night time. She went to the er and doc told her she fractured her arm. my ? is...is my landlord responsible, cause we were told that the cement blocks should have been painted yellow. i just want to know if anyone knows the law on this. and i also don't want to get kicked out, we have been here 3 years and don't want to move until we build our house. thanks for your time.

5 months ago, me and my wife made an offer to a house that we fell in love with, but it was over priced, so we offered alot lower than the asking. for all u know, it was not accepted. Today, we dropped by the house, we saw a posted notice in the front door and we found out that the house is going to be auctioned in 3 weeks. Now, my question, Can we get a home loan for this auction home?? how much money down do we need?? i have good credit, we live in los angeles county, california. how much time do we need to wait to occupy the property?? PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU! =)

Hi, I was in real estate years ago and I always used to get cash back at closing for "repairs, carpet, etc." Its seems like the lenders today dont allow this to happen anymore. Does anyone have a formula, strategy, or way to still get money back at closing for whatever reason? Now I already know about the up to 3% for closing, but I used to do that too. I want to know a way to get the 3% for closing and money back for repairs or anything else. Thanks.

With 3 weeks left on our lease, we noticed severe water damage in our apartment, caused by a leak the landlord had refused to fix, that was causing mold and bugs in a bedroom. When we let the landlord know, they informed us our rent would be increasing by 10%. We are rent controlled, which only allows our rent to increase by 4% each year. I told the landlord the increase was illegal and she said "well, your rent was discounted before, we're now removing the discount." So we filed a complaint with the rent stabilization office and health department, since the landlord refused to fix the damage. They then informed us that they would be revoking our right to renew because they said "it seems like [we'd] be happier elsewhere." This doesn't fall under any of the 12 legal reasons for eviction and retaliation for exercising our tenant rights is clearly illegal. Our appointments with health and housing investigators are coming up. But what can we do in the meantime to protect ourselves? Help!

I am considering a FHA loan. I would like to avoid mortgage insurance if at all possible. Am I allowed to put 20% down or get a piggy back loan for 10-15%? Basically, I'm not sure if a FHA or conventional loan is best.

First-time homebuyer
Credit = 725ish
Pre-qualified for $80k
Probably getting a $70k home.

Please give me some advise. Thanks in advance!
