No don’t have to sell but this property is 1 big headache
We have to go every month to cut the grass (6 acreas) and I told my sweet hubby today if something happened to me, hello, he would have to fool with all that. I have no use for it but have had since 2004 now, did not make up mind to sell until about a year ago. I told the realtor just to let me know when he got other offers..
Tell you father to sell the property...
buy something decent and let you stay there for free.
Until everything is settled, move in with your father.
You are definitely living in danger.
How, for heaven's sake, can your father hire sex offenders to work in your house?
I would sell it on ebay, it would sell like -sm
a hotcake! Then possibly he could donate half of the money to a charity he likes and keep the other half as his prize for the contest, best of both worlds. This way he could maybe get himself a couple games with the money.
Lake House!!!

Lake George
There's also Waterslide World nearby - good fun for your kiddies if the weather's hot!
lake george
Yes, we're leaving Monday for three days. No plans to swim at the lake though - just in the heated hotel pool...LOL. We actually going to be in Queensbury, so the main goal of the trip is "kid-style" fun activities. Our "beach" vacation is later this summer in Maine...To be honest, I don't care if it rains all three days while we're in Lake Goerge...I will be happy to get away and my 5yo son will be happy just to have a "little fridge" in the hotel room.
Lake George
Every summer as a little girl we use to camp at Lake George. I loved it!
Lake G-Ville
It is beautiful here. I am originally from Enterprise, AL but have been here for 15 years and love it. I live within walking distance to lake and love it! My DH drives 2-1/2 hours to work to Dalton GA, because he would rather live in Guntersville near the lake than move away from it. All should take advantage of it if close. Can't wait til the leaves start changing, but we need rain!!!
ER MT have you been to Lake George?
We were just there this past July. I love that area. So beautiful. Would love to see it in the fall. Only a 3-1/2 to 4 hour ride from northern NJ for me.
Near Lake George
and the snow, she's a comin' down !
I feed birds on the lake
quite often and really enjoyed doing it. I have seen others do as well and I do not see them becoming aggressive as a result of this. I also see the geeze and ducks feeding on their own when not being fed by humans. I have deer in my neighborhood and as much as I would love to feed, know this is not a good idea and should not so I don’t. I think that other mother is a total jerk for her reaction, though.
lake george NY ideas?
We are going to Lake George for three nights, leaving on Monday and returning Thursday. We are staying at the Country Inn and Suites right next to the park. Has anyone ever stayed there? I think it used to be called the Wakita and they redid it in 2006. Any input as to activities, we are 2 adults - mom and dad - and daugther, 8yo, and son 5yo. So far, we are using our season passes for the Six Flags Great Escape, maybe ride the boat Minne Ha Ha on the lake, mini golf... I think there is a drive-in nearby so we might check that out one night if it's nearby. Any personal favorites out there? Has anyone ever been to the Fort William Henry museum?
Oh - and "family-friendly" restaurant recommendations!
Thanks! 
Hot at Lake George, even hot in the Catskills.

Want to tell you about my Salt Lake visit
as you said your MIL there. I visited there and that was the best smelling city I think I have ever been in. I wrote email to the chamber of commerce there stating that. Have no idea where the sweet smell from but wonderful smell walking on the steets there.
I liked the Lake House...and critics didn't if I remember
I liked her in A Time to Kill as well, but I'm a big Matthew McConaughey fan, which is why I watched it in the first place.
Utah or Salt Lake City, info please
My vacation is right around the corner, starting the 25th of this month. I would like to know what is this doing for the people coming into SLC, is there a problem with the fires there? I am still (hopefully) looking forward to visiting your state, my first time there. Any sites I should try to work in? Thanks.
This was not on my property...
My sister-in-law and I were both picking up our kids from dance class, and my sister-in-law was picking up this girl, too. They were playing outside by the cars. She has an appointment today, so I will probably call later and see what the doctor said.
Thanks everyone!
The 10% was lakefront property
as in over 6 acres, not a home there but glad he is no longer around. I do not understand about who was wrong? The money taken up front from the present realtor, I was told, was put into escrow. I am catching flack from a relative who thinks I should have the money in hand. Her son does not have a realtor selling his property and when a prospective buyer backed out, he kept their earnest money. Please explain when you say he did not do right. I have been in no hurry to sell this, do not need the money in a desperate kind of way but out of town and we are having to keep the yard maintainedm do not ever plan on living there so decided to sell.
Anyone know how to become a property appraiser? (sm)
I think I would like to do this as a side job. Can look it up online but would like to hear firsthand if anyone has info on this and whether or not it is lucrative.
Thanks!
At least you own property to pay taxes on -
I don't have my own pot to p__s in or window to throw it out of. I was totally depending on that refund to help pay down my gas credit cards.
We got married on our property...
just a little ceremony with a few friends and the pastor. We have 15 lovely acres of land and were married near the barn. Everytime we walk past that spot we stop, say I do, kiss and walk on. If we ever leave here we will take some of the dirt with us as a fine memory.
Sold the property, finally
Well, I guess the man was wrong for wanting me to accept the $110,000. I have sold the property today for $140,000. That is a chunk more than I can now think of ways to spend- just kidding, planning on putting new flooring in, paying off most of the home where I live and paying my bills off. Hooray!!
I have sold some property, not closed on but
get this- the new "owners" have gone in (I was told they wanted to spring clean and thus the realtor gave them keys to the place to do so) and stripped the carpets that were there and also dismantled and took down part of a cabinet. The closing was to take place the first of July. I called the realtor and asked when did spring cleaning turn into renovation. One person had asked about a possible early move-in as their lease ran out today. I told realtor no moving in, nothing else done until closing. No answer from him- no emails answered, nothing. I sent him 1 yesterday saying - oh, never mind, I will check on my property myself either Thursday or Friday morning, hope I don’t find squatters there- guess what folks, now he calls late yesterday evening wanting to know can we close today. Oh, the power of persuasion. Some people really have the nerve!
Property taxes...oh my goodnes!!
Our area and I think much of the state were being reassessed this year. The first tip was when my husband read in the paper that our particular county did an outstanding job with their assessment and should be an example for the rest of the state. My husband called today to see when we would could be expecting our tax bill and was told they could give us the amount, did he want them too. He told them he really wasn't sure he wanted to hear it!! OK - this marvelous job that our county did was -------- a 60% increase. Can you believe it????? And we do not live in an extravagent area at all! We have to come up with an extra $1900 in three months! Piece of cake!
I fear America is in for tough days ahead. Our society in general cannot keep up with the increases that we see on every hand. Milk - Close to $4 a gallon here. Gas price increases - and we live 30 miles away from anything, work, church, shopping. Cheese - $7 for a pound of cheese!
How can we continue on this pathway when our incomes do not increase at the same rate? Can't our congress people and senators see the predicament we are in??
Another issue along the same line - I'm wishing today that I was on Welfare. If I was on Welfare, I would have no problem running to the eye doctor because I desparately need my lenses changed in my glasses which are at least three years old. My son needs to go to the doctor for an infected, ingrown toenail - no money so he endures it. My daughter needs a graft on the gum line of her teeth where here gumline is beginning to expose the root of the tooth - again no money for that so it won't get done. I could go on and on - but I'm paying for all the Welfare people to go to the doctor for their sniffles. Yes - I have insurance that we would be covered for a major medical expense, cancer, etc - but there is $3000 deductible so none of these smaller things are covered.
OK - I'm totally overwhelmed with these issues right now and I know that I am not the only one with these issues. Thanks for the listening ear and the wonderful sounding board that you all are!!!
When you are sinking in this deep pit - it hard to remember and to comprehend that "MY GOD SHALL SUPPLY ALL YOUR NEEDS ACCORDING TO HIS RICHES IN GLORY." I'm sure He will do that because He never fails. I'm anxious to see how he supplies that need.
My property tax rate stays low
because there are so many mansions in my town. There is a house on the market right now for $23 million, plus lots of others in the 5-10 million dollar range. What is really sickening is that these are second or even third homes for some people. But they are paying such high taxes, it really takes the burden off us little guys who live way, way, way on the other side of the tracks.
If the injury occurred on your property... sm
...and you have homeowner's insurance, it should cover any injuries that occur on your property.
However, it is unlikely that the amount the ER charged would meet your deductible unless you have it set extremely low.
It was very nice of you to offer to help. Since the girl had surgery on that finger, she obviously should have had some kind of brace or cast or something to remind her not to use that finger while playing - just so that something like this would not happen.
20/20 hindsight, huh?
We pay property taxes in KY on car tags. (nm)

I am close to retirement age and got property taxes
just a few days ago, about $2,250.00- I called and asked if I got anything off when I reached another age, say 70 or so and was told in 2009 I will have reached the golden age of 65 and my taxes would be only about $800.00 per year! Good Golly Miss Molly, talk about good news! The school tax break comes through then for me. There are some good things that come with aging and this is one!
That sounds strange, cars in with property but
now much do you have to pay?
I live in Kansas. Our property values
I am sorry to hear about your financial predicament. I hope things work out for you.
She lives on his property so kind of hard - sm
to call the police on him or order him off his own property, he has every legal right to be there, except for being a total nut case. I hope he wakes up and gets help, but I do not see any of this ending well.
that's what I said: Only property gathered during the marriage is divided 50/50. nm

Definitely understand that - you shouldn't have to have your property be forever a memorial! (sm)
you were VERY kind to leave it there and take care of it for six months. So ridiculous that people gave you a hard time. I'm sorry that happened to you! Bad enough that you have to know something so awful happened in front of your home without a constant reminder and strangers coming up to your house all the time. And it is not your job to maintain it for them. If the family understood, then certainly no one else should have any say whatsoever.
But he "FOUND" it in private property! Ludicrous reasoning. nm

I am MY property. If I choose to use my assets for money, that is MY business!

see if you can sell her to the
If parts are that expensive, sell her to the mechanic that gave you the quote. He at least will give you the amount you still owe and he can part it out.
to sell more books
She wants to create more hype about the books. I agree, I don't think it was at all appropriate to discuss that in relation to what is marketed as a children's book.
At least you have kids trying to sell them to you....sm
around here we'll oftentimes see the scout "moms" with tables set up outside of Wal-Mart and grocery stores selling the cookies for the troops and have maybe only 1 scout around at that time.
We also sold them for 50 cents/box when I was a kid. I still love to get the thin mints and freeze them, then pull the box out on a hot day in July. Ahhhh -heaven!!!
sell the sale
As you are shoving the leftovers in the fridge say,
"Amazing sale on turkeys at such and such, you should go get one!"
My mom used to sell it years ago and
when I decided to do something to pad my income, I asked her about. She said she made good money back then, but so much has changed and the people she buys from now say it's hardly worth it.
After doing some research on my own, I found another direct sales company that offered their reps more with less out of pocket and less financial responsibility. I sell jewelry to people at home shows. I signed up in January and since then, I have made about $7,000 in profit (about $1000 extra a month). The benefits are that the customers pay up front. The customers handle their own returns/exchanges. Everything is backed with a lifetime guarantee, so no complaints if they don't like it. The orders are delivered to the home of the hostess, so no deliveries.
The startup cost is zero. I earned my display kit free with my own home show and it also came with enough paper supplies to get me started. Since then, I have invested in some marketing materials, etc, but it's still very profitable. I really enjoy the money I make and a couple of nights out a week with the "girls"!
If you'd be interested in hearing more, you can email me privately. If you decide to go with Avon, good luck, and remember -- you only get out of it what you're willing to invest in it!
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.
With the prices of homes and property taxes today, just about everyone is house poor.
It's so sad when you can't go out to dinner often, buy nice expensive things for yourself *just because*, go on lots of trips, go to sports things, see shows/concerts, etc., all because you own a house. I'd truly rather rent and ENJOY my life! :)
And, I'm not talking about WHO the stores sell to, I'm
And, no I don't buy from businesses that knowingly sell homosexual material of any type!

I would love to sell the baskets
but she does visit from time to time. I am not sure I could get away with it. My husband is such a peacekeeper, when I talk to him about it he just nods his head and says "I know". Thanks for the suggestions, and Misha thanks for the laugh.
yes, they sell it all over online. but what does that have to do with mums?
..
Publix is our big supermarket and they sell
rule for Publix Grocery stores is - AFTER 2 HOURS, if the chicken(s) is not sold - they throw them out!! They cannot risk selling to the public if the chicken has been sitting cooked in their cases MORE than 2 hours.
Take that under advisement please....and do not eat that chicken nor serve it....
Boobs still sell. Insanity

The government could manufacture and sell
