I would not want anything in my own name as both my husband and I are likely to have 'malingering" last days and there is a chance that would result in my son having nothing.I am becoming a fairly well known autistic activist

Sacramento, CA for example, barely saw any homes drop below 85-90% even if they were listed for a long time.Check out hudhomevalue.com for recent sales in your area.

Shouldn't she have a chance to redeem herself?

So please bare with me--I'm still learning.

Not yet, haven't had the chance lately.

We never mentioned about it and never was part of lease agreement.2) tenant never paid on time3) Every month i had some sort of repair cost4) Within 6 months replaced the Dishwasher and microwave5) tenant broke the lease without paying rent for 2 months and left the house in awful conditionI had to pay all the expenses out of my pocket.My husband, it was previous tenants who were bad we should give 1 more chance to property managers:Now renters are in the house:1) I already received an expense of 190, they have not even stayed in this house for 1 month.when you Property managers why all these repair charges, the start telling you all legal terms that the expense is less than $350, they can do it without asking us. they are telling they are not using cheap material from walmart. also mentioned I was living in a house half things were not working and they had to fix it. they are harassing us.they are total crooks, I can prove these $190 expenses I am paying should come out of tenant expense.I want to do legal case against them, please let me know how to proceed as I am tired of them.

Oh,and we figured out that this would be going on the assumption that there would be NO renters [though we do want renters] And if by chance he could not qualify for a loan at that point, there are some family members who could help [ my fingers are crossed that at least Bobby or I are still around, maybe even both.

I'm sure some have legitimate cases against their landlord, but I don't want to take a chance on them.

If you think there is a good chance the market stays strong and the place will increase in value (and maybe force some appreciation by getting a dated one and modernizing it while you are living there) you can sell, get a quick profit, and since it was your primary any gain is tax free.

I know dumb question, but I'm new bare with me please.
