I am looking into possibly buying a home that was onwed by someone in Bankruptcy. I assume that by the time I get the chance to buy the house it would be controlled by the state of someone. What, if anything am I liable for if I were to buy it? Where can I research to find those answers? I am based in Utah, are there any special rules for my state?
It’s a house out of foreclosure. It sold for 43k in 2004, and it hasn’t been on the market (this time around) for very long. The asking price is 12k. The realtor said that it is “priced accordingly”, does that mean a crap load of work needs done to it since it last sold for 43k? Or does that mean that’s how much the bank wants to pay it off? The realtor said that the price is still negotiable.
*The realtor did tell me that the people that lived in it stripped out the copper pipes underneath the house.
Does “accordingly” mean that I will have to spend 30k to fix it? Since the last appraisal was 43k?
I am looking to buy a home (my first). My sister just said something about “signing a contract with the realtor” however the realtor I’ve been in communication with hasn’t brought that up. Does one always sign a contract with a realtor? What does it cover? For whose benefit is this, mine or the realtor’s? Is this common practice?
I’d like to get some background information on it before discussing it with my realtor, if I can ascertain that this is a valid, common practice,
Why would he not have mentioned this contract to me before?
I need my house to sell between now and Jan 1. What can I do in my house to make it look better to buyers/stand out? I own a small two bedroom house and I don’t have tons of cash to give away as incentives. Any little tips/hints would help.
Anyone can tell me where to apply and get the application form to be realty agent in Vancouver BC?
Our developer is planning on expanding our subdivision. I would like to know how many homes our Jr. Olympic pool will take care of. I don’t want him to crowd the pool.

I’ve always lived in the southern parts of the USA but have been looking at homes in northern New York state. I’ve noticed that a lot of homes have this angle at the bottom, especially on enclosed porches.
In a magazine called oriental trading there is a statue of St. Joseph and it says according to legend, burying a St. Joseph statue in your yard upside down will make your house sell faster. Does anyone know if this works because if it does I want to do it.
