Thanks for the responses. She has sort legal advice and was trying to pay him off. He's being difficult and avoiding her, but not actually saying what he wants. She want's to keep the house.

A friend of mine broke up with her de-facto partner, they have a PPOR he's stopped paying for the mortgage and moved out a few months back. She has it documented I think that she put in a larger share of the deposit and she covered most of the expenses. She's offered to pay him out, a more...

Hi all, my mum wants to get the entire inside of her house painted and is about to request quotes. One thing we are unsure of is whether you normally pay up front, or with progress payments etc? We are a little worried about giving a full payment or a large down-payment then the tradie not...

Great. Thanks for the advice everyone. It's been very helpful.

Thanks for the input guys. It was around 5 years ago now. I think I had fallen behind on the water bill and rates back then too (which were also supposed to be paid while I was gone...) I haven't fallen behind on a bill since then though. I haven't checked my credit file yet, this was my...

A few years ago I moved overseas and my mother moved into my house on the condition that she would cover the repayments for me. Anyways, of course she fell behind on the payments and the house was almost put up for sale by the bank. I managed to catch up with the repayments once I found out...

yeah these days I am unfortunately. I had a few really bad experiences all in a row with lawyers, real-estate agents etc and there's a lot riding on this sale. So recently I get paranoid over this stuff, because before when I let it ride it came back and bit me in the butt. Just today for...

yeah you guys are probably right. It's just a few things that went on around the sale, and the way the agent was speaking and acting. but you're right, too late now its signed and sold!

Thanks Brianna for you comments, you are right about not "having a go". What more information do you require? Our neighbor that we are playing "chinese whispers" with is a very close family friend to us and watches our property for us. She saw them all enter the property, the actual house...

God another thing that just came to mind about my house sale.... I'm also concerned that there may be something dodgy going on with my agent. As his agency is further benefiting from this sale in that they will be managing the property as a rental for the new owners after settlement. I'm...

This sale has been rather stressful... This afternoon I heard from my neighbor that there have been people coming and going from my house. Firstly on the weekend there was a group with children that wandered through, and the children left pebbles from the path strewn all over the veranda and...

I'm interested in doing the exact same thing. Hopefully some people on here with have some helpful input! :)

the property is in Tassie

There's two weeks until settlement goes through on my cottage. Now suddenly the purchaser has requested to view council house plans and permits in case there has been illegal building completed by myself or the previous owner/s. Can the purchaser use this as an excuse to cancel the house sale...

I've read an interest is not needed, but if the caveat is challenged in court an interest needs to be presented or the caveat may be removed. But then again I've read a lot online saying just the opposite too. :confused: I guess my best bet will be talking with my solicitor, he_should_ know...

I hope that they are invalid. I should have a talk with my solicitor about them tomorrow. One was lodged by my credit union as I fell behind with a personal loan. I also have the mortgage with them, but it is a separate loan. The second was lodged by a solicitor for fees he believes I owe him...

Both caveats are for debts, and the money would be paid to them once the property is sold. A contract of sale has already been signed. Is it now up to our solicitor to deal with it for us? Otherwise how does one arrange to have them removed???

Hi all, I've just found a buyer for my property the other day. I haven't signed the contract myself yet though as I've got two caveats against my property that I know of and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. What's the process from here? Will my solicitor clear up the caveats for me? Or is...

What's included in the stylists fee? eg do they supply furniture, plants, art work etc for hire? or is it just advice? Anyone have any weblinks to some stylists? Cheers :)

Damn. I fear I unwittingly gave permission to do so. As I was completely clueless to what I was signing at the time and also under EXTREME duress. It wasn't explained to me what I was signing and was less than 30mins until a court appearance when the contract was presented to me. The solicitor...
