Basic details of my friend:
–Been married for 4 months to a man from England who is now taking a 6 month job on a cruise ship.
–She has yet to hold down a job for more than a year.
– They have $10K in savings and investments.
– This land is in Mass.
There is a land sale in her area with land appraised at $41K, but she has the idea that she can get it for $10K. They couldn’t build for at least 6 years. Getting a loan would be tough as her credit rating is shot and he doesn’t have one.
What would you tell her? To snap out of it or go for it?
I’m trying to be a good friend, but it’s hard to be a good friend when I see so much problem! I know that taxes alone on land is insane, but that may just be farmland (we own over 2000 acres).
Just to let you know, I’m suggesting that they save the money, add to it and use for a down payment on a house in a few years.
She’s American. Forgot to mention that.
Gah! How silly am I not to tell you the most important part?
Yes, they will be purchasing it to build a home in the future. How they will afford that, I have no idea. They both, even after marriage, could only afford to live with family.
I would like to know if anyone has bought a HUD foreclosure home? What is involved in the process and is it hard getting banks to finance the purchase? Also, has anyone ever bought a foreclosure from the court house(sheriffs sale)? How would I get financing for that when you have to bid on the property? Im new at all this and my first purchase will be for myself to live in. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Details: my roommate’s brother suddenly moved into his room full time, at least for a month or more, does not share any rent or utilities. My name and the roommate’s name is on the lease. Roommate says his brother is family and can stay in his room. I am concerned that I was not even consulted. What is the advice here? It is unlawful to add new residents to an apartment, after how many days does a guest become a resident? Surely one month is too long?
I am moving to VA Beach, VA in March 07 and am bringing my 81 yo mother. She has a mobile home and land and does not drive. It is all paid for. I am already living with her as a caregiver and I got a better job in VA to help provide a better life for us. She has Medicaid and SS and cannot have any income or savings. I do not know what I can legally do with the money from the sale of the property. I have heard she can invest it? I have also heard that she can pay for tuition. How about a student loan that is being paid back? I know that she cannot give me more than $12k a year tax free. I also cannot put the property in my name and sell it for tax reasons. We are only talking about $50-60K at the most. Is there anyone in a similar situation that can provide guidance on how they handled it? I will appreciate any advice that is provided.
