Renting & Real Estate - January 2007

but I dont know how to go about asking. I pay my rent to a property managent who then pays my landlord from there...I have never met my landlord (or know his/her name). I have been living in the building now for 4 months. When I moved in they were just starting renovations to the outside of the building and said the renos would be completed within 5 months. End of February will be long past 5 months and the work crew just said today that they will be at LEAST another TEN months before the building is completed! Yesterday they nailed the door to my deck closed because they are redoing all the decks (I was not aware they were doing this before I moved in) leaving me with ONE exit in the case of a fire. I am in a three bedroom apartment with my daughter and expecting a new baby in 8 days....I pay 750 per month for this dwelling. Would I be unreasonable in asking for a 100 dollar reduction on this rent just until the renos are COMPLETE?

Me and my housemate are the only names stated are on the standard assured shorthold tenancy agreement and hence legally the tenants of the flat. Her boyfriend is here for average 3 days a week and stays overnight. As the other tenant, do I have the right to say no to that? Her friend does not contribute to the expenses of the flat but does the laundry, watches TV, use of shower etc. She insists that this is well within her rights to have visitors, which she feels infringed when I asked that her friend should only stay a maximum of 2 nights per week. Anyone have any website that is from an authoritative source or any other ideas that could dismiss her argument?

I can barely afford my mortgage but I still have have enough money saved for about 6 months. I love the condo but got terrible mortgage terms---Interest only payments. I bought condo for 100k and selling for 110k. Paid $7885 in closing costs. HUGE MISTAKE. Century 21 is selling property for me because I cant sell it! I tryed "selling by owner" but having no luck. The closing costs comes to $8775 but I dont have to pay a dime of it. The agents will just take it off my profit. Which will leave me with about $1200 in my pocket. I will take about a $6885 loss on the condo from closing costs. I also bought condo through a developer--I, the seller, was responsible for closing costs as well. Total ripoff. Should I take condo off market and hope real estate rises and try to make a profit? But how do I avoid Century 21's cancellation fee of $995 if I do?
Or should I sell it and get out from underneath these high "interest only payments?" I have 6 months worth of money left in savings. help!
