This woman called me up at 8:00 pm (I kid you not) and proceeded with a sob story of how her and her husband gave the son large amounts of money to purchase the house they live in and funded some other type of real estate investment for them.
This call crosses legal boundaries and can be considered harassment. In addition, if I were the mom, I would be careful of using the term ‘gave’.
They are not on speaking terms. The last I talked with the mother, the son said some things to her that was so horrible, she had to hang up on him.
Irrelevant on not being on speaking terms. This is getting into the middle. Your dealings with either need to be kept at the professional and legal level. They are both trying to draw you in.
The mother filed a notice of default on this property last month. The son says his lawyer will block it. The son is adamant that he’s not going to lose the property. Does anybody on here believe him?
Irrelevant. The NOD does not transfer ownership it is only the first step. Don’t put any weight on promises. For all you know, they are both in it together.
the mother sent me a whole packet on “rent skimming” said it’s exactly what her son is doing. I guess he is.
He hasn’t paid his mortgage in over 6 months.
And she waited close to 6 months to do anything? She is an enabler. Your contract is with the son. Don’t get in between them. Once the mother(second lien) forecloses, it will be with the mother. Don’t shortcut. If you start paying the mother, you can be evicted by the son because until the transfer, he is the owner.
I didn’t mention that the house I’m in is next to some horrible neighbors. The lady takes in foster kids. What the owner did NOT mention to me when I signed the lease was that one of this lady’s teenage foster kids sexually assaulted a nine-year-old-girl who lived on this street.
Good enough reason to move.. should have done it sooner. So you want your son to learn from this deviant who is your neighbor?
There is a nice community of brand new apts that look like condos in a good area (the school aren’t good, so I would put in a transfer)) that would allow me to save money for a house and get out of this mess.
Umm.. what are you waiting for? And the schools where you are (with the likes of that deviant), are good?
