What should I do in this situation?
I am a first time renter and going to college. Today I got home at 12:00. at 12:24 there was a knock on the door, so I answered. It was a man from the something of clerks. He asked if I owned the property and I said no. He told me the property was going to be foreclosed on. I asked him when? he said it will take a few months to a year. I asked him if my realty agent knew, he said they should know about it.
I called the realty agent and told her, she said "oh everything is fine, he (the owner) has been in forecloser before, dont worry everything will be fine, he is working it out now."
I was concerned because why did she not tell me about it if she knew about it?
I just have one question.
I should keep paying my rent till the lease is up right? (it will be up in jully 2009).
This happened to my niece also and they did come and tell you she had to leave and the landlord knew. For some reason if i were you i’d try and find another place or someday they’ll come and say you have only so much time to move out. I think this is a terrible thing to happen to anyone and especially when the landlord knows. Good luck.

I’ve been doing quite a lot of apartment searching, both on my own and through a realtor. A few days ago, I come across a website of a management company with a number of apartments that look nice, so I fill out an inquiry directly to the company to hear more about them.
Afterward, I meet up with a realtor to see a few apartments she’s representing. Before we go see anything, my fiancee and I of course have to sign the standard form stating that the realty is "introducing us to properties, owners, and management companies" and that if we rent with one of them, we’re obligated to pay the realty a fee of one month’s rent.
So she shows us a few places, one of which is owned by the management company I had mentioned finding earlier on my own. Ironically enough, none of the keys to the unit work, so we don’t get past the lobby.
Today I hear back from the company who will show us some places tomorrow. If I sign a lease with the company rep tomorrow, will I have to pay a fee?
Read your copy of the agreement that you signed. That will tell you a lot — then find out from your agent if the management company where you are going to rent will pay her commission. The answer will probably be a yes and everyone will be happy. If they don’t cooperate with Brokers then you will need to comply with the agreement that you signed.

I got my first period today and it’s realty heavy. I am a healthy 14 year old. I do sports everyday of the week if that helps. Please tell me how long your first period was and how long my is likely to be.
It’s different for everyone, so there is no way of predicting it. Mine was like 2 days but the first year is really irregular, uneasy to predict.

Nine dead reproductive doctors and counting.
And the U.S. has the highest infant mortality rate in the industrialized West.
Do you really see any trend of social conservatives putting their money where their mouth is anytime soon? I don’t. In fact,the post-modern Right of today is more obsessed with dis-realty than the Left was in the Sixties.At least the Left actually tried to stop an unwinable war.
This problem is nutty in an "only in America" kind of way.How are we supposed to teach kids the benefits of civility and non-violence with a problem like this.
And I think the sad fact is, it doesn’t matter to them. It all goes back to the psychology of the Wild West, where guns and force are the answer to everything. But that’s the point. The Right does not genuinely believe in non-violence. And they are becoming more extreme headed towards their eventual burnout.
I find the justification of more murder by these right wing exteremists ghastly.
HTaciana they have you so brainwashed that it scares me.
Hayley pro-choicers are Nazis? Really?
Interesting…..
koo koo…koo koo….
GFT mindless scathing attacks is all you have. You are proving my point about the Right becoming more irrational byu the minute. Next?
sickbald "slaughtered" cult term meant to obfuscate.
Read their defense of being "pro-life." They intend to punish women for sexual agency as long as they can, which is why the movement also opposes contraceptives and sex education. When they rant against women "spreading her legs," you’d never know married, monogamous women ever have abortions. A blastocyst does not have the same fundamental rights as a grown person, especially when their body is being compromised. Restricting abortion increases motherhood mortality rates.
I don’t believe in violence against women and mothers.
Also, I love how all these fetuses are innocent until they’re born, because according to Christian antiabortionists we’re ALL born sinners. Lots of sinner babies, yep.
I understand how to get the lic, I have completed the neccessary education requirements and am testsing today.
I live in a rural area and the offices here are C21, Remax, V.I.P. and Realty Executive. I am Military and will be ending that career in about a year and a half.
I have talked with C21 and Realty Executives, they said they will hire me part time, I have been a Recruiter and held other sales postions. I am leaning to C21 becasue its closer to my home and the area in whcih I want to market.
I have read quite a few comments telling people to stay away fom part timers but I cannot quite my job and I have to feed my family so I thought I would get a jump start on a new career.
When deciding on who to work for what should I look for. Any advice would be appriciated.
First of all, good luck on your test.
Now, you’re about to go into business for yourself, no matter where you decide to hang your license remember that they are not "hiring" you. It sounds like you are in an excellent position to transition from the military to your own business. When decided on a company to hang your license with I always suggest to new agents to go with a company that has a good support structure and training. This type of company generally offers a less than generous commission split but that’s the price you have to pay for training and education. I believe in Missouri you have to be an active agent for 1 year ( i could be completely off here so check you local regulations) before getting your brokers license. That’s certainly something to think about giving your time frame to retirement from the military. Spend the next year or so learning the business and marketing yourself and then consider getting your brokers license.
Good luck in your new career and thank you for serving our country in your current career!
