Friend Went To Pay Real Estate Taxes & Found Out Someone Had Bought His House…any Recourse???

admin — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 06:30:58 +0000

What to do!? He thought that in MO he had another yr, but it seems that the law was changed in 2002 w/o his knowing!
The tax assesor himself bought the house on a “Courthouse steps” type of auction. My friend has multiple schlorosis & has put a lot of work into this house!
He offered to pay the man back what he paid, but the he wants thousands more…any ideas on what to do!?

Joint Venture In Real Estate?

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 06:22:07 +0000

I need to add a little more detailo than I had in my last question. There is a tract of land. The owner is willing to auction it. My company has agreed to pay the auction fees (in excess of $50k) and secure the best auction house for the task. Would it be necessary to form a separate entity to coincide with the joint venture or would a joint venture agreement be sufficient? I’m an investor but no longer hold a realtors license. I want to be able to recoup my investment and profit from the transaction without having to have a realtors license.

Potential Real Estate Fraud. What Should I Do?

admin — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 06:11:42 +0000

I have a problem I found what I thought was a reliable landlord for a house in my area. I was interested in renting a place of his he had available. I contacted him and he said that that house was still available and he had another place available nearby that was vacant but needed work he showed me one of his places and it looked ok but it was small for my needs but I told him its still an option. I gave him a 500.00 cash deposit for either that house or for the other bigger house he had on the other side of the block. He gave me a reciept of that deposit was very detailed it was for either house. He told me that within a week they would be able to finish the other bigger house that was available and he drove me by it to see the outside of the house and the location. It looked pretty good. I told him I can move in the middle of December. I gave him the deposit the 30th of October. I called him the next week and asked if they were workinging on the bigger house and for whatever reason he said they didnt start it and to call back in a week. I called back and he had another excuse why I couldnt see the house again. I had someone look up the house up on google by the address and it said that he owed taxes on the house of 185.00 plus interest, the taxes we not payed at all. I didnt know what to think. Two weeks after I gave him the deposit he called me and asked when Iwas able to move and I told him whenever you guys have it fixed up and available for me to see I will move either the rfirst of December or the 15th, he replied that the other house I looked at that was smaller and not what I wanted was available and finished for me to move into and said I didnt want that house. I kept calling and calling leaving messages and everything and he is not calling me back at all and its been over a month later. I seen in the paper a week ago that one of his other places is on tax sale on auction because he had not payed for the taxes on another building also. I did a check and every piece of property he owned in the city was deliquent on taxes, and I know that this guy stiffed me for the 500.00 deposit I gave him. I called and left a message saying if I dont either get my money back or move in by the 15th Im taking you to the local magistrate and still no call. It seems to me he gotten in over his head with the economy and used my money to put in his pocket!!! I talked to the police about it and they said that he did nothig wrong and to wait until after the 15th to take him to court.
Is this a case of true real estate fraud that I can file a criminal case to have him put in jail?
Or is this a legal issue that I can just resolve in court?
Or should I do both?

What Is The Statute Of Limitations For A Total Of $350,000 In Medical Bills On An Estate Dated 2002-2003?

admin — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 06:11:20 +0000

My uncle died in December of 2002 with 350,000 USD in medical bills incurred within a two week period of time during that December. Due to previously owed propery taxes the deed to the Real Estate owned by my Uncles Estate was almost immediately taken over by the State of New York. As executor of the estate, I am only now completing payment on the previous and current property taxes on the real estate, therefore, the state of New York is prepared to transfer the Real Estate back to the Estate.
Can those who are trying to collect medical bills from December of 2002 attach to the Real Estate in the form of liens, or force the property to auction or sale once the deed is transferred from the state of New York back to my Uncles Estate.
I am asking this question due to the fact that the property will first be transferred to me as Estate Executor and then from me as Executor to the Beneficiary. During this transfer process will any of the above mentioned actions be able to take place?

Question For A Real Estate Agent.?

admin — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 06:12:56 +0000

I’ve been working with a real estate agent for a couple months. He’s shown me about 10 homes and none of them have worked for me. I recently found a house that will be sold by auction in a couple weeks that I like and want to try and buy.
What should I tell my agent. I really like him and feel bad not buying a house through him.
