Can he get away with that?

how can he rent it to us?

Can he get points for that?

Bao, this is just one more method that contractors use to bully and rip-off the people they are contracted to do work for.  

can he go after you legally for wasting a month of his time??

Can he give me a land contract if he has an outstanding mortage?

Can he transfer the house to us with the taxes still being owed?

I've recently been diving into the world of real estate investing, trying to familiarize myself with the terms, different financing options, etc.I have a question about the strategy I've been reading about wherein one gets a private lender for a short-term loan (say, 1 year)  at a high interest rate (say, 12%) and then refinances the home to pay off the lender at some point during that year.I assume that a) the borrower is going the private-lender-route because he/she can't get a traditional bank loan and b) when the borrower goes to refinance, he/she is seeking a new, traditional (i.e. bank) loan.My question is: if the buyer couldn't get a bank loan to purchase the house in the first place, can he/she count on a bank being willing to refinance after 1 year?

After moving out, I knew I was responsible for some damages my teenaged daughter had done,and at the time I called the police when the damages occurred AND also let the landlord know that they had happened and I would be responsible for the cost to repair,I even hired a company to do the repairs just after I had moved but they let me down by taking a bigger paying job.So I informed the landlord to hire tradesmen to do the repairs.Then I begand getting bills for damages that I was resonsible AND DAMAGES THAT HAD NOT HAPPENED WHEN WE LIVED THERE, but he has taken photos of these damages.Now I must assume he himself did these damages I would guess in order to have me upgrade/renovate parts of the home that he does not want to pay for, yet wants to improve.How can I prove those damages were never there when we lived there, and that despite he has photos, they do not reflect anything that occurred during my tenancy.Also I moved back in april, and have made all payments ,yet he continues to send me bills.How long after I have left can he continue to send me bills?

Also, the only way to add me to the mortgage is to refinance later on, which we will not be so open to unless rates come down.How can he protect his interests if I am on the deed but not the mortgage?
