I am a single man owing a house with another single man. Can I force a sale of the property, and if so can I gain the entire down payment that I put down on it? The other man wants to let his brother live in our house, which I oppose. I paid off the debts of the man who lives with me in order to qualify for the mortgage. I put down $42,000 on the home. He put no money down on the home. I do not want his brother or anyone else to live in our house. He is insistent to allow his brother to live here. I did not sign up for that arrangement and want out. I want my down payment and to sell the house. He thinks I cannot do this, but an attorney I talked with said that equitable distribution laws would allow me to force the sale, even if I had to sue my partner. Most everything in the house was purchased by me, as well as things I owned before I met him. Does anyone have any credible information on how this is handled? I only want my down payment back and the things that I either had or bought

When I moved into my apartment they had a special on not having to come up with a security deposit. What will this mean when I move out? Will I have to just pay out of pocket for any/all damages?

The last tenants had animals and the smell is horrible! We cleaned the carpet twice (professionally) and the smell is still there. Is the landlord responsible for replacing the carpet? Our landlord stated he will raise the rent if he replaces the carpet. We have a 6 month old baby and are worried about the health risks. We are afraid to put her on the carpet to play. What are our tenant rights with this?

Does it mean that the building is considered to be a residential house and not a commercial house, especially because it was built as triplex before the Ontario law, restricting residential buildings to two units, came out?

Can you, as a seller, NOT disclose important information to the buyer?

Story: A gal my husband and I both know (I wouldn't call her a friend) lives in a condo that has a lot of strutrual problems. Her HOA are in charge of repairs, but it has yet to be done. Let's just say, it's a pretty bad buy in general. How anyone that stupid could buy a place that bad is amazing.

Anyway, she is claiming that she doesn't have to disclose anything about the structure since it's not her job to fix it.

PLEASE tell me that she's wrong. She's the sort of person who is COMPETELY full of herself, and I would LOVE for her to be wrong about this.

My wife, and two daughters need a home. We are currently renting a small 2 bed. apt. My wifes aunt is going through a seperation from her husband and they have a house. Since January, not one single payment has been made to their home and thats also the month they moved out and put the home up for sale. As you can see I think that there may be something to gain from this, I just don't know what(if anything). Unfortunately, their payments are 2,900 a month and we cannot afford that. Is there anyway my wife and me can benefit from this situation? Is there anyway to bring the payments down to under 2,000?

P.S. They've onwed the house for about a year now and it's been on the market for 5 months and we are first time home buyers(trying to be). We have no money down. Thankyou

I have a property that I am renting to Section 8 tenant. I am trying to sell the property because I am tired of being a landlord. My tenant is being so uncoorperative because she doesn't really want to move so now she is trying to make it difficult for my agent to even show the property. I told her to make it fair to her, that my agent would set the lockbox to only show between the hours of 11am-7pm everyday. Today I got a call and a buyer who really wants to see it at 9:30am on Saturday because she is flying in from another state to view 5 properties and mine is at the top of her list. When I called my tenant to tell her that someone will be by at 9:30 she said, no that is not the time we agreed on. I thought you said no one can come until 11am! She wont let me show my own darn house! Does she have the right to do this? I am trying to sell my house so what rights do I have as a landlord? I'm in Georgia

I really want to get onto the property ladder and I found a condo hotel that looks very promising.

This actual Condo hotel that I am looking at is in pre-construction and will be finished in 2010. The development is expected to cost $850 million with a Broadway theater, spa, conference halls, restaurants and lots more

My unit that has been offered to me is in the high $300's and I would have to pay 10% of that by the end of this year and then another 10% at the start of next year. Then I would have to pay the rest (80%) when the construction is finished in 2010.

I was told that the condos will be going up in price in two weeks as the condos are selling out fast. So hopefully I could sell the condo hotel 2010 if it went up quite high for a good profit?

It is a little over my budget but if I work very hard I could afford it. I was just wondering if a condo hotel in Orlando, Florida is a good investment as there are so many hotels in Orlando I am not sure.

I am single 23 yr old female and I live at home with my parents. I bought a property and got possession on Jan 1st this year. I lived in it until May 1st at which point a tenant moved in. I got my tax bill today and there was no education credit on it. I called and they informed me that rental property owners don't receive education tax credits. The main reason for this I think is so that you can only claim tax credit on one property. Your primary residence. I won't be claiming that credit as I live with my parents, is there any way that I can claim this credit? I did live there Jan 1. It's a 500$ difference!
