The other three owners have paid off
their mortgage. Instead of going to a fractional financing, I went to a big bank and got a group TIC loan.  Since the other owners have paid off , I was ensured by the bank that they will have no liability. However, the loan document does require the other owners to sign on it (the loan document is not out yet, I don't know how it looks like).

My question is , do they have obligation to sign ? or I am at their mercy ？

This is really frustrating situation. Thanks in advance.]]></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Wed, 1 Jul 2009 10:51:16 PDT]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[What steps do I need to take to reduce my property taxes, given that my home's value has been reduced?]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.trulia.com/voices/Financing/What_steps_do_I_need_to_take_to_reduce_my_property-141665]]></link><description><![CDATA[My home was recently appraised for a lower price than the one I bought it for.

I have a listing and the property is in San Francisco. I read that the RECO- Residential Energy Conservation Ordinance and Residential Water Conservation Ordinance are required inspections before I can sell the house. Is that correct and if so, how do I setup these inspections? 

I have sold houses in different counties before, but I know San Francisco has some unique reports and disclosures that I must give the buyer. Is there some place where I can find these? I heard something about a 3R report as well. 

Any San Francisco Realtor willing to help a fellow Realtor out? 

Thanks!]]></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Tue, 23 Jun 2009 10:38:49 PDT]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Prof'l couple moving to SF East Bay w/2 cats & therapy dog.
