I keep reading that the housing market has dropped significantly again in the past 3 months, with 2008 looking even worse. I am worried about the economy as we are just squeaking by. Right now we are about even, we owe what the house is worth, almost exactly. Should we get out now for more affordable housing by putting on the market and hope it sells? Or risk foreclosure if the economy tumbles even more?

We own a vacant house that is on the market. We let a guy stay there for a couple of months rent free for doing some very minor yard work that took two days. Now, he's partying there and having known dope guys over at all hours, stolen vehicle in the driveway. You can imagine... Broke a window and just generally slapped us in the face with his lack of appreciation. We just wanted to do the guy a favor for a short time. Well, it is obviously time he gets OUT before any more damage is done. There was no papers signed as it wasn't a rental agreement, more like a short term favor. Anyone know how to approach this the most effective way? We warned him a month ago to get out, he's got one week left. I want to be prepared? Thanks, appreciate all advice!

We are planning on buying a home on my credit, (he has recent bankruptcy and unpaid fed taxes and student loans). So will I be in jeopardy of losing the house if a creditor comes after him/us for their money, and possibly take our home??

I'm buying a house. Our lender is quoting us 5.875%, which is a good rate, but it was 5.75% a week ago. We close on Jan 31st. Should I hold off an see if the rate goes lower or lock in now?

If you buy a condo, rather than a SF home, do you still pay property taxes to the county every year? If not, how much more would the yearly maintenance fee in an average nice condo complex be, compared to property taxes for a home appraised at about the same value? What about all the benefits included with the condo like pest control, security, laundry accomodations, outside lighting, etc. - would the value of those add up to the difference or close to it?
Thanks for any insight. I lost my husband 4 weeks ago, almost immediately after we made our final payment on our mortgage and owned our house free and clear. It was unexpected and I will be selling our house and moving to Jacksonville (I currently live in Central Florida) to live near family members there and am just now starting to consider what type of home I will want.

This scenario pertains to a group of condominium owners under a home owners association (HOA). When our HOA was formed 30 years ago, the HOA was given the right to purchase any condo that came up for sale at the same price and under the same terms that any other buyer outside the HOA might make in a firm offer to an existing owner. This is a fairly common "Right of First Refusal" although it is not necessarily standard in all HOA agreements.

Not having been there at the time of this HOA formation, my question is -- "What would be the most typical REASON for affording the existing co-owners that Right of First Refusal?"

I believe it would be because the ones who bought in first are thought to have superior rights of ownership since they have been investing in that condominium community. Therefore, if they like what's been happening economically and they want to preserve their priority position, they can accumulate more of the same property in an advantaged position.

I am getting ready to make an offer on a home. I have 100% financing. I was told that the bank will not allow me to ask the seller to cover all of the closing costs. Is that true? Do I HAVE to pay a portion of the closing costs because I am financing 100%. Thanks in advance of your replies.

I cannot decide which to do. I have been with my bank for over 13 yrs in good standing. I have only had a few instances in that time where I had insufficient funds to cover a transaction. I know they will not return a transaction unpaid to recipient up to $1500. because of my history. I have also NEVER made a 30 day late payment to my mortgage. Here's the problem-- we have undergone a pay change that will now result in a paycheck being received when our mortgage will be considered 34 days late. I have contacted the mortgage company 2x, and they will do NOTHING to help. I have about $1k of the roughly $1500 needed, but will definately be short by $400+ the day the payment will go 30 d. I assume the bank will pay out the difference to the mortgage company and hit me with NSF fees. Do I pay it, bounce it on my end and accept the fee, or do I just allow the 1 time late on the credit report? I will need to apply for a car soon, so credit matters, but bouncing terrifies me. Which is worse?

I've been asked to relocate to NY for an opportunity that I really want to accept, but the problem is that I only purchased my condo a year ago, and value has declined by $60,000 already. If I put the condo on the market, it would have to be a short sell, but I don't think the bank will accept such a big difference. What other options do I have other than foreclosure? I don't want to pay two mortgages, especially for one that I'm not living in. I'm eager to hear what can be done for situation like this. Thanks.
