Renting & Real Estate - March 2007

I recently was the high bidder at a sheriff sale in Stark County Ohio. The owner will not allow anyone on the property for survey or appraisal. All that is available is the 3 court appraisals that were done but they are outside only. I tried conatacting the foreclosing bank and they are of no help. I cannot get the guy out of the property until I complete financing and I cant seem to get financed without the appraisal, any help would be much appreciated

My sister and my name are on the deed to my fathers property and we want to sell it. He is in a home and wants the property sold also. Does he have any rights to property now that he is in home and only had life-use of property? I live on property. My sister does not. I refuse to stay another winter in this state.

The failure of subprime lenders has been in the news recently. One odd article said how people are proposing that the government enact laws or policies to prevent mortgage companies from selling loans that the mortgagee can't pay back. What I don't understand is why a mortgage lender would sell someone a mortgage that was likely to be not repaid in the first place. Why would anyone lend someone money if they knew it was not likely to be paid back?

I suspect that the people selling the mortgage aren't the ones shouldering the risk: They sell them off to investors as mortgage-backed securities, and so they see no downside if the mortgage fails. This seems very bad to me, especially if they make a profit on selling the mortgage -- this means that the more mortgages they sell, the more $ they make, even if the loans aren't sound. But it raises questions: Why would the market buy loans without proof they are sound?

I am relocating to Nashville in the fall and am beginning my house search. I will be working in Brentwood. I would like to live south of the city, or southeast. Murfreesboro is how far from Nasvhille?!? I will be purchasing a townhome for aprox. $65-85k.

What areas should I look at? I found some really great townhomes in Antioch and Smyrna, I just need more info on the area, taxes, association fees, etc. before narrowing down my search. Thank you!

I am looking for a site that lists the Property Tax paid for different homes for the Columbia City/Fort Wayne, Indiana area. The real estate sites do not list and I do not want to connect with a realtor at this time.

We are working with a realtor right now who has been showing us alot of houses. When we buy the house, do we have to pay him anything, or is he getting paid from the seller?

What would you do..these two lofts are AMAZING, but is it worth it?...One is for $8500 a month and the other is $5500 a month.. Would it be better to just put down on a house instead?
I'm 21 years old, when I think about purchasing a house, I think that is something I would want to wait until I'm ready to start a family or something. It's just me (and my two puppies) so I think buying a house will be a little over board. You can view the lofts and tell me what you think...Thanks in adv.

P.s. Yes, I know it seems like alot of space for 1 female, but I'm also planning on working from home as well, I'm a hair stylist/makeup artist, so one room of the Loft will be sectioned off for my business...

- Stress -

In the process of buying a house
Must exchange contracts today or the deal falls through
Mortgage company messing getting offer out to solicitor
People we are buying from must exchange today or they lose their place
If it all falls through we lose the house + job!
already had to send my wife and kids to the new area we're moving to as her job has started there (200 miles away)
Time is running out
My head is about to explode
No exchange = no house, no job, nowhere to live!
Anyone got a spare 200K they can lend me until next week?
