Account Closed HOA not taking accountability for declining fence architectural change
17 October 2012 | 13 replies
If that meeting doesn't offer a common sense solution (like allowing you a waiver on this fence but requiring any replacement be correct standards) then some states have a board or independent agency that helps owners with disputes with their associations, so look that up to see if you have one of those as the Board being contacted by an outside party might help immensely.
Amber Butler Getting money from a short sale?
23 October 2012 | 19 replies
I can tell you I do have experience and that the first thing is to get the ATR signed so that you can speak directly to the lender.If you are not listing the property for sale then the info should come from the listing broker and they should have an ATR signed from the seller with the lender or servicer.It's not that sellers lie in that so much they only remember some things and forget others.Not having one document can waste months of time with a short sale.Maybe what you are referring to the buyers is that a bank will allow a buyer to pay for a sellers moving costs or relo costs as a line item on the Hud-1.AGAIN you can't know what the bank is talking about unless your ear is on the phone and they are talking to you.They will not do that without an ATR form for sharing details.So anything you are hearing second hand is a waste of time.
NA Foster What happened to the search engine
18 October 2012 | 7 replies
If you are referring to the window title SEARCH, that is not the one I am missing.The previous search engine had a drop down box that allowed you to select a member by name and then it took me to the members site to see his/her most current posts.
Daniel Miller This one will be a bit of a challenge
19 October 2012 | 20 replies
They are probably around 50 (given that their kids are grown up, done with college, and out in the world working), so the previous statement is not inconceivable, I've seen it before.The effect of the preceding data is that there are no previous landlords to contact, nor can I contact their employer... they *did* give references among their neighbors, who I'll call this weekend.
Daniel Miller credit-report issues

Anyway, I think I'll keep drawing credit reports, at least this time around... it gives me something familiar to refer to, and it's a piece of data that has not come directly from the prospect!!

Lan Gooch MS Tax Lien Help
19 October 2012 | 0 replies
I've learned quite a lot from the experienced posters on this site.Hopefully I can get some advice on a situation I'm facing.I bought several tax liens in my home state of MS 2 years ago.I'm very happy with the returns, but I have one left that did not redeem.It was a homestead property when I purchased the lien, but now it has "estate" listed on the property, and the taxes are now about double what I paid for the lien.So I'm assuming the owner passed away in the last 2 years.August 30 was the final date for redemption, and I have filed to get a tax deed.My state is known to be lenient in favor of the property owner, and tough on the invester, so I do not expect to acquire the property.However, I have no experience in this aspect of the deal, therefore really don't know what to expect.As it is a relatively small lien, I'd like to avoid the expense of a lawyer if possible, as I'm not sure that money can/would be recouped.One avenue I have considered is to contact the owner when I have the deed, and offer a quit-claim settlement for my interest in the property.I'm interested in your thoughts on this solution, and any other ways to bring this matter to a close.The original lien was for $600.
