I agree with the others who say :protest: and find another way, or ways, to sell the properties.

Yikes :protest: Glad to read your post..no happy about the changes though

Went to the other bank, got upset with the manner inwhich the mortgage broker was speaking to them, (very condensending), so they got so upset, :badwords: they went to a "model home" and bought directly from the builder, (never consulting me or letting me know what their experience was).My broker suggested I get my buyers to sign a buyer/broker agreement...I am not comfortable with them, because as I buyer I refused to sign them, :protest: and found another agent who didn't expect that from me.

I send him an email protesting that he could not use my security deposit like that and that I want my deposit back by May 30th because is by law (or whatever).

Im surprised no one else has commented, is my topic that boring or what :protest: :groovy:

In reference to evictions in Texas, you have to give a 3 day notice of eviction before you can file the eviction, unless a 1 day is stipulated in the lease. 10 days normally for the court date. 5 days to get out unless the tenant puts up the entire back rent owed as deposit to protest the eviction (I have never seen or even heard of anyone doing this), and then 1 day for the sheriff to come out if required.3+10+5+1= 19 days on the realistic long side and 1+10+5= 16 days on the realistic short side if you use a Texas Apartment Association Lease or another lease that stipulates 1 day eviction notices.

:protest: Another problem with buy and flippers is that half-baked appraisers come in and give you comps from wherever they "feel" like, so long as the comps are within 2 or 3 miles.

[/size] :protest: I check County Records daily, I probably know more about market value than 90% of Realtors, who are simply incapable of telling the truth.Check 2-3 real estate sites daily, others on a weekly basis.The market is extremely dead right now.Only 1-2 Condos sell daily in this City (100,000 pop plus)The Fannie Freddie bailout will quickly change this, (I hope)I think my $105K is conservative .The last Unit in this complex sold for $154K, (Fall 2005)The Unit was an end unit , and it was in mint condition,I was briefly in the kitchen talking to the owner, glancing about..

:protest: Where are you located at?
