We have these really rotten neighbors. They have stolen our stuff, broken our stuff and vandalized our stuff. The landlord refuses to get rid of them saying he has a "vested financial interest". Two nights ago the lady neighbor keyed my car in the middle of the night. I can't afford the repair and it is BAD.... from bumber to bumper, under the door handles and DEEP. Her taking my junk is one thing. Her hurting my car is entirely another. They are moving in 10 days, so it will be over soon, but I don't want my insurance to go up and I want the land lord to take responsability for this one! We live in NH, and the LL lives accross the street.

We are interested in a house that we think we can get for $275k. We would put 20% down and have a 220k mortgage. This will be no problem with our dual salary, but we're thinking that I will stay home when we have kids in a couple years. What salary do you think is appropriate for a 220k mortgage? We need to know what my husband would have to make.

My roommate and I have been living in a 4bed apt for 2 months and will be transferring to a 2 bed in Aug. When we first moved in the management gave us a 2bed lease to sign, blank, and said that they would fill in the info when they assigned us the apt. We recently found out that when we signed the lease they jacked up the price and have now lowered it for all of the people signing leases now. This upset us a little and our management refuses to let us sign a new lease with the new price, even though we haven't even moved into that apartment yet. We were never given a copy of our 2 bedroom lease so we asked for one and when we got it we saw that our apartment number and bedroom had been scratched out and changed, without our initials next to it. They also wrote down a price different from what they had quoted us. Is any of this grounds to void the lease? All we really want is to be able to sign a lease with the current prices, since we will be paying $70/mo more than everyone else.

I bought a house in 1994 with my partner, things went wrong and I had to get the house repossessed, that was in 1996. Does this mean I can never get a mortgage ever again.

Real estate agents have first hand knowledge of bellow market value properties. Only real estate agents have access to the MLS. They have clients that are selling their properties and clients seeking to purchase bellow market value. When bellow market value properties are available, Suddenly, real estate agents become investors and instead of making those properties available to potential qualified consumers or client, they buy the under market valued properties and flip them for a substantial gain.
If only real estate agents are allowed access to what I categorize or consider inside information similar to that of the stock market, why are they not held to the same standards?

Well I am finally moving out, im only 19 so nothing too embarrasing :P And some friends and I are looking for a place of our own. So I was wondering what would be a good place to start since we are still in school, there are three of us. Apartments and Duplexes seem similar in price. With Duplexes only a hundred or so more though they seem to be a bit bigger. Both have the appliances with them, like the stove and fridge. So I guess what I am really asking is there anything I need to look into, or know about when looking at either of these. Like hidden costs for example...
Sorry for the genaric question.

Im going to look at a house tomorrow that seems to good to be true. 3 bedrooms around 10x10. Has a dining room and a extra room in the basement. A screened in porch. It was buit 2 years ago. It comes with all the appliances. Public water, public sewers. Propane heat. Baseboards. Its not in a flood area. Taxes are only 1800.00 a year. LSTZ 50x63. I saw pictures and it looks great. Its also in a decent area. It seems like it is bank owned. States Must sell This home must be sold Seller/Bank will take the highest resonable offer! Listed at 195,000.00. That is unheard of in this area even though it seems rather small. So why would it be on the market for 260 days.
