My personal inability to break the language barrier even after all those years.

Hopefully, your lease has language that minimizes the potential liability for you, but in any event, the tenant always has a duty to mitigate any damage.

Dated: June 25, 2008"Seasoning" for short sale, as compared to foreclosure, is TWO years, not FIVE years as with foreclosure.I'm amazed...but there it is in black and white in unequivocal language.

HEY, what's the etiquette for correcting an adults spelling or language?

I know they have been working a federal bail out, but I do not think it has eviction language.

Jon, I'm not sure if the "language barrier" ;) is preventing me from making myself understood, or whether this type of arrangement really is unknown in the USA (which would surprise me).You mention an "investor", but I'm not proposing having an option to purchase as part of the arrangement.

Banks work closely with real estate agents on traditional purchases, so there’s an institutional bias that favors the real estate agent.The bank is more likely to consider an offer that makes sense if it’s presented by someone who speaks their language.

I was kind of surprised to see that prior to Peter's comment there was very little information posted here with relation to Content Management Systems (CMSs).A CMS would be a great alternative for you if you want to create a website without wanting to learn any coding languages.

Yes, follow Wheatie and Michael's advice and move on unless you can get it for under $300K.Josh, at the risk of sounding condescending, your email is full of "rookie" language that will get you in trouble.

New owner now has a lein on property and can not sell it without paying the lein off, even though the debt was not their responsibility.Original owner/developer should have had language in the contract that states that all subcontractors invoices must be paid in full and proff of which to be presented prior to receiving payment.This is one of MANY problems that can occur without the proper contracts and contingencies.
