In Atlanta, some property owners pay homeless people to live in abandoned homes as a security measure.In early November, Rameau drove a woman and her 18-month old daughter to a ranch home on a quiet street lined with swaying tropical foliage.

However, would be possible if I were to open a secured credit card by applying at a Wells Fargo with an initial deposit of say $5000 and after receiving the card in the mail, withdraw my initial $5000 deposit?

There should be a security deposit, just like any other lease.

I would secure landlord references and employment verifications if you can, in addition to credit.

They have been on the market for two months. “With all this oil money in the region, I thought the Dubai property market would be secure from the global problems,†the 30-year-old Bentley owner said, reached on his mobile phone on the beach.

Picture yourself in front of a judge defending why the tenant did not deserve her security deposit back.... and being told by the judge that it looked like we forged the documents... essentially calling my wife, Vicky, a liar.

Note buyers buy notes (secured loans and othe cash flows) from note holders who would rather have a BIG lump sum of cash now vs. collecting small monthly payments over a long period of time.

(Job security 'n all.)

So if the title has been awarded to the HOA, I would be suspicious of what happend to the 1st lienholder and their security interest in the condo.Check with an attorney.
