Hi, Gwen,
You really should call the police and make a report! As a local Realtor, this is the first such problem I've heard of. Our county has a low crime rate, and the Manette neighborhood is especially safe. There has to be something unique going on in your neighborhood, so please report it! Call me if I can help.

In addition to the first two comments, FHA always requires tie-downs. Your agent should be able to help you negotiate your way through this. This is a very important requirement to accept, in your own bests interest.
Hope these suggestions are helpful!

Hi, Matt,
This would be a terrible purchase for you, and you should find a home that's not more than 1/3 of your income, at the most. Please see a lender in that area and get pre-approved for a loan, as soon as possible. If the homes in that area are more expensive than you can comfortably afford, then don't feel bad about renting for awhile. Nothing spoils the pleasure of homeowning faster than financial pressure or the possibility of foreclosure! Check out your options, and make some goals. Maybe a salary increase is in your future, or even a transfer to a less expensive area.
Good Luck,

Hi, Chad,
A Realtor cannot work for 2 brokers at once. Your listing is under the control of the broker of the office you listed with, not the broker he is currently licensed with. My suggestion, is to talk to his current broker; and perhaps the two brokers can work it out. If not, go directly to a real estate attorney. This is really a sad situation.

Hi, Peg,
You didn't say how long you've owned the house......if you just bought it in the last couple of years, it could have been assessed too low in the first place. You'll need details on 3 similar homes, closed within the last six months, and preferrably within a mile of your house.
Your Realtor would be happy to provide that...... then you can even look on your county website and find information for the "Assessor's Office". They should have instructions, phone numbers, and possibly the forms to fill out to file an appeal with the Equalization Board.
