[quote=santeeman][quote=mwtosd]Maybe there is a huge increase in them because of the coming moratorium at the beginning of July in CA and the banks want to foreclose on as many as fit the timeline from the previous moratorium?[/quote]

Where do you find info on this upcoming moratorium?

I have searched and can’t find anything on it.[/quote]

Here’s the info on it:

The bill, called the California Foreclosure Prevention Act, was introduced by Sen. Ellen Corbett, D-San Leandro, and attached to the budget package in February. The foreclosure moratorium takes affect June 15 and covers owner-occupied homes where the first loan was recorded between Jan. 1, 2003, and Jan. 1, 2008.

Fourth: Everything about this video is creepy to me, down to the well-rehearsed hand gestures…[/quote]

I assumed the hand gestures were ASL. My kids do ASL hand gestures in songs they learn at public school for school performances.

Overally, I guess I don’t see the creepy factor. I understand your points, but don’t agree and am not creeped out.

most contractors hate permits because it’s a second trip.

And because they typically don’t get final payment till it passes inspection. So no paycheck till they get it right.

[quote=LAAFTERHOURS]Dont rent from an apartment management company. Instead rent directly from a home owner and tell them upfront that you may purchase in the next 12 months but you will give them plenty of notice (as soon as you enter escrow maybe). Also offer to help them show the rental while you are still there and help list the place on craigslist.

I have done this with my current landlord. Best thing to do is to communicate your intentions up front. [/quote]

ITA with this. Management companies often pay a commission to the rental agent – so they are under incentive to get you in, even by lying to you. I was caught in this predicament – the agent very clearly told me that they waived the lease if you sent them a certified letter with copy of the purchase agreement if you were buying a house. I did that, and they sent me back a very nice letter saying congrats on my purchase, but I still owed through the balance of the agreement. The management company agreed with me (again verbally) that I’d been lied to by the rental agent… but that wasn’t their problem. My attorney said it could go either way in court. I settled by giving up my deposit and 1.5 months rent. (Beats paying 6 months rent.)

Whatever you negotiate – GET IT IN WRITING!
