Renting & Real Estate - July 2007

The roof of my apt. has been leaking for 5 months. I think they finally got it to stop leaking but the inside where the roof was leaking is all brown and crusty and disgusting. They've offered me to transfer apartments, but I'm so disgusted with the management I want out. I live in PA, can I break the lease? I'm not overreacting, I showed co-workers pics and they couldn't believe it.

These always come up with a figure way too low for the house we think we can afford
Anybody know the best way to work out what we can borrow
Obviously go to the bank but we wanted a realistic idea before hand

The automatic stay was lifted which gave lender right to protect property. Tenant was notified on June 11 and the lender is requesting property be vacated by July 25. Tenant was not given an exact date when I talked to her on June 11 b/c I did not have one but she knew of the mobile home going back. Will an eviction notice have to be filed or does lender have rights to seize property at will?

My friend lost his job and hasn't been able to pay his rent for July, he recieved a notice yesterday that he has until today to pay his rent or they will evict him. He started to work at this temp. job this week, and is starting a new job on monday, I am going to let him stay with me for a couple weeks til he can get a new place. I don't know what the laws are regarding evictions in kentucky. How long does he have til they put his stuff out of the apartment. If he is able to pay the rent by the end of the month would that stop the eviction? What time frame is he looking at?

The foreclosure is being listed for 155,000. The tax appraised value of the house is 167,000. The property is in a very good part of town. How much should I offer? Is there anywhere where I can find out how much the bank is into the house for?

I want to tell them he refuses to pay me or return my calls. I want them to know what a scumbag he is. Can he turn around and sue me for talking to the people he does business with and telling them the truth? I am a property appraiser in Florida. I plan on going after his accounts once I pass the state exam this week.

I have bad credit. No credit card debt. Just various debts that are 6 plus years old. I have no savings, so would have to be 100 percent financed. Everyone tells me that first time home buyers can get loans easy, but every realtor I have tried to get a home loan through says no. Is there some lending agency that can help me?

Would be great if you have done this yourself, and please share the experience and any forms that I would require.

If I give my keys back to the bank because the morgage on the rental is $380,000 and similar houses are selling for $330,000 can the bank come after me for equity that I have in my primary residence ($85,000)? I can't make the 2 morgage payments any more and I keep getting screwed by tenants who have rented it.

We have looked at leaseback schemes in France. They seem to be fairly water tight security was (what with the guaranteed rental return and full management). Companies like Assetz are now offering more flexible deals where you can stay at the places longer and when you want.
So why not?
