Mortgage foreclosure.
I am in danger of losing my home. Anybody deal with this and what did you do?
Eviction
My ex MIL bought her neighbors house, she had lived next to them for 15+ years, her step-father had built both houses. She decided after her husband passed away (my father-in-law) that she wanted to sell her house and move which she did but then decided that she liked her prior neighborhood better than where she had moved, and evicted them from the house so she could move into it. So yes you can evict without just reason. It was hard for me to believe that she did this to friends/neighbors but she did. Stayed there for 18 months and moved again.
Got an eviction notice today.
My paychecks have been so small for the last couple of months. I have not paid my rent for this month and already have a dispossessory notice.
I just moved into this apartment at the end of last month because it was less expensive than the place I lived before.
Sad.
you mean like a pop-up trailer?
We used to have a little Coleman years ago and loved it. We really only sold it because we wanted to save for a hard shell one so we would be more comfortable camping at the beach. We now have a truck slide-in.
falling out of your trailer
this is ridiculous advice.
Well because you can take the girl out of the trailer park
but you can't take the trailer park out of the girl ;)
Even with a mobile home---not *trailer*..sm
you still have to make your own repairs, as you have purchased the house and it is yours, unless you rent one somewhere, and good luck with that! You also still have to upkeep the lot you are sitting on. You pay a *lot fee* but you are basically renting it. You do the lawn, bushes etc. Mostly you still pay for your own water, and utilities. sometimes garbage pickup is included in the lot fee, but not always. Yes, they have some really nice ones these days, but a lot of insurance companies will not insure the single wides, only the double wides. there is a lot to consider even with a mobile home. Condo's are expensive, unless you rent. There again, if you decide to move, they depreciate in value and you have to sell it instead of rent it out. There are down sides to everything, and very few upsides. good luck with your decision.
I saw the trailer on TV. That story is SO strange, -sm
I'm going to have to drop what I'm doing and watch it tonight. The doll thing is just TOO weird! Why wouldn't those women lavish that love on an adopted baby, or at least a pet?
your Trailer Park attitude is probably not helping

Britney = trailer park trash.........no message
Doesn't she still live in that trailer? Or has she graduated to a double wide? lol

No, my husband thought they would store the trailer with the quads in the back corner of their yard.
away from the road. The trailer that had been stolen previously was in their front yard unfenced. And you drive the quad off the trailer and that is it. Really, the reason it wasn't unloaded is because our garage was a huge mess and he was too tired to clean it late at night to the quads could fit in it. Unloading them and loading them wasn't the problem. It was the garage we have that looks like a tornado hit.
Wow - you would die in Baltimore - land of the Hon
n/m
Um, he approached her about the land
he physically went over there to pay the rent. She made it a point to stay away apparently. So who is chasing who here? LOL :)
Living in la-la land
I cannot believe in this time that anyone would leave their door open for anyone to enter. It does not seem like you either hear/read the news or know about things that go on around your little world. Why invite danger by opening your door to the world? In my town some children molested by strangers coming into their rooms in the middle of the night- oh by the way, not only their doors left open but some windows not locked of a night. I read a post on here where a man showed up in one persons home through their garage door. My home is just as secure as I can get it. I love and cherish my life, my hubby's and my pets as well. What is someone other than someone you know comes in 1 day- then what? Good luck with a dangerous situation.
I got one to Land's End but can't find anything I like.
And boy, are their prices expensive. I'll be lucky to find one shirt or one pair of pants. We also got gift cards to Home Depot and Cabela's. Spent the Home Depot one already so I now have new tile in the bathroom. Haven't even looked at Cabela's yet.

We just got rid of our line land and use only cells now. nm

Got rid of our land line this summer.
I just added another cell number to my plan too so the kids can take one when they go to practice, friends houses, etc.
11 years and your still living on his land
and talking about moving on to your mothers land. Here's a thought, buy land from him, or buy land from her and then its YOUR land. Better yet, move away completely and stand on your own two feet.
About your fellow land-dweller
She could easily put up her own mail box right next to yours. As long as she clearly labels it with her name, the postal carrier will separate your mail from hers. That's how theya do it out here in my neck o' the woods anyhows....
(Can you tell I absolutely ADORE being a redneck? LOL!)
Can you rent yourself out to me for a few
I would LOVE to pay you to come stay a week at my home and set my neighbors straight. I've started hybernating in my home because of the rude people who live around me. I wasn't raised to violate other people's home space or behave badly, but obviously that isn't the case with any of my neighbors.
Seriously, give it some thought and name your price :) :) :)
Only my rent. - nm
rent
We used to own a double house and we rented to this old lady who was just a wonderful tenant, so we never raised her rent from, I think it was, $375 per month, or some sort of ridiculously low rate. We lived in the other side with 2 children, so it was really important to us who lived next door. Unfortunately, she went to a nursing home, so we had to find other tenants, but we charged quite a bit more. If you are a really good tenant, I would discuss it with your landlord. It might be worth it for him to keep you and take the cut. If Helen had asked, we would have lowered her rent to keep her. If you are dealing with some sort of big rental company with hundreds of units, you might be out of luck, as they don't care that much who they rent to, as long as they get paid. Good luck. By the way, if there was any way you could possibly do it, look into buying a house. You are not going to get a cheaper housing market than now and it is not going to stay this way forever. Sometimes a mortgage can be cheaper than rent, but there are other expenses involved with owning, as well as responsibilities.
I,. first of all, would pay her rent until she
gets out of the 'hole'. I sure would not like to be your daughter.
My cell is clearer & more reliable than my land line,
I realize we still need those 2 things - the P.O. & land phone lines, but you'd think that by now the two would be a whole lot BETTER than they are.
would it be possible for you to take the rent money to her? nm
Can you rent a houseboat? Might
xx
It would almost pay my rent for a year.
Tell him you want $100 a month of that $180 he gets for rent. nm

I MEANT "BF" (boyfriend), not BP! egads... TYPO-LAND!
.
I used to have a friend that called them land torpedos. I always thought they were cute. nm

If I got rid of my land line, how on earth would I be able to call my cell to find it!
LOL! I misplace my cell all the time. I use my land line to call my cell so that I can find it.
My friend has you beat... she paid $35,000 for a small piece of land
and a home 30 years ago; she just sold it for $375,000, clear profit; she and her DH paid it off last year and now are reaping the benefits.
Unfortunately, we're not rent-controlled here. - sm
A very few places downtown are rent-controlled, left over from the 70's, I think, but NO ONE moves out of a rent-controlled apt. there unless they DIE!
The recent prime-mortgage fiasco is compounding the problem. A LOT of people here lost their homes this past year, and now they're driving up demand for rentals. I just looked on Craigslist at an area nearby that was affordable, in the 700's-900's just last year, and now I notice that most of the rents are above $1600. That's my entire month's salary!
For that kind of rent, she should become a transcriptionist!
Sorry for the joke. I just had to throw this one in, just a bit of "sarcasm..."
BTW: Sometimes I feel like a call girl with the production work we do. "work it girl, go go go, get those lines!" LOL.
I didn't know you could rent generators.
That is a great idea. I'm sure they are probably all gone by now. We have been planning to get one but never have the extra money.
Thanks for the heads up on Sunday. I had no idea about that. We are in Southeast MI. I think it will be less here than most of the state but we don't live in a populated area and our roads are the last to be plowed and power lines are the last to be fixed. The toilet was a big concern, otherwise I think we will survive. :) Just might give the 10yo a run for his money with boredom. lol
Single moms - is it better to rent or buy? sm
I am separating, about to become a single mother of two children. I am wondering if I should buy a home or rent one. While buying seems like a good idea, I would also be giving a chunk of money for a down payment (which if I rented I could keep as emergency savings) plus I would be responsible to repair anything that might break. I would appreciate any advice on this.
thanks :-)
If you can handle the rent payment,
then let him move on and do not give him any money. Let him figure it out for himself.
That's right! If you rent it is NOT your 'own' home.
Would you charge 18yo rent?
Son is turning 18 in a couple of weeks. Has a part time job (going full time when turns 18 due to labor laws), no plans for college, not really sure what he wants to do, oh - and he has to go to summer school to finish a course and get credit for school.
So - would you charge rent when he turns 18 and if so, how much? What about groceries (he's skinny as a rail and eats ALL day long! ha).
Land's End is good for suits. Don't know if you can access their swimwear at this time of year

I rent also and live in a huge complex
They hired someone to do the vinyl and afterwards they were installing the new doorbells. Well, they could not figure them out and while I was working the doorbell was ringing constantly! I went down there and started to explain to them and they could not understand me, not a word. I then called the company myself (got the name off the truck) and threatened to call immigration and explained that if these people passed the citizenship test surely they'd know a couple of words of English. Within an hour they were gone and have not been back. It was funny watching them hightail it out of here from my window :) LOL
If you rent movies by mail, which service are you using and
s
If you rent, it may not be allowed. Rotties, pits,
dobermans, chows, and german shepards are often on landlords 'not allowed' lists, for liability reasons.
I'm a dog-person, and have known quite a few rotts, and none of them were friendly to anyone but their master.
I think one of the best choices for a 'first big dog' would be a labrador retriever. Laid-back, not as barky, usually love everyone, great family dogs, yet big enough to possibly deter a burglar.
I have an 18-year-old daughter and we charge her rent...
I think it teaches them responsibility and what the "real" world is like, there is not a free ride and to be accountable. The rent we charge does include groceries, cell phone, etc. She just pays my husband and I a lump sum at the beginning of the month and it covers all expenses at home. She buys her own clothes, make-up, personal items and even helps with her college expenses at the local community college. I think it's a great idea!
In some locations, you can rent an exerciser instructor to lead
s
Donnie and shower. Go to movies or rent a movie?

I live in the south and my landlord told me NO SMOKING before she would rent to me...

Even higher bill w/3 cells & a land line, but sound quality & customer service are good.

As a landlord with rental property, tenants seem to "pay partial rent" or not pay at all sm
beginning around Nov or December (the holidays). Were they both laid off? Is there no income coming in? Even though I don't know the situation, I can guarantee you that the money was spent elsewhere and now they are paying the price. I'm sorry to have to say this.
My husband and I worked with a family on getting caught up and they were 2 months behind plus late fees (about 1,800) and it was right about this time last year. They had a great Christmas though!
I don't have an answer for you. I don't know if there is anyone who can help someone like your friend or my ex-tenants. Rent should be people's #1 priority and sadly, a lot of the times it just isn't.
