The problem is that the contract was from 3/1 /2020 - 3/31/2021 It was originally supposed to be for 12 months. The realtor agent, K, made a mistake on the contract, ending it at the end of March of 2021 instead of the beginning, making it a 13 month contract. I contacted the agent after I signed...

I suspect that the lease agreement calls for monthly rent, paid in 6 month increments. Just because the lease is silent (if it is) on when other rent payments are due doesn't make it free. If that's correct, then I suggest you first sue the tenant for the unpaid rent, and find a new... Read more »

You can't unilaterally join a lawsuit. If you have a claim, you can bring your own claim, and maybe - if they're sufficiently related and the parties agree - you can get your suit consolidated with another one.
They have a dress code I have a key but I have a set schedule that is when they are there and when a receptionist is there. I am also paid commission. I am afraid being LLC would hurt me tax wise vs just staying how I am because my write off have gone down since starting with them as I don’t have... Read more »
No, they can't make you have an LLC. However, having one set up properly shouldn't change your tax situation, other than the fact that you'll need to start paying yourself by payroll, with withholding, and keep your business income and expenses separate from your personal income and expenses.
She had no spouse, parents, siblings, or children. She does have 7 nephews/nieces. I want to get this property sold as I'm working on cleaning up my neighborhood. What can I do? Contact the nephew? What then? I know probate can take a while, but I don't think the extended family knows... Read more »
If you think the family doesn't know about the property, you may want to contact them. Maybe you could work a deal to buy the property, after either the probate of the owner's will, or an heirship proceeding to determine who should inherit her property.
Of my electric. I'm not sure he filled rights correctly either. How can I go about finding out and also is there a way to override his claim on the property.
You don't mention what your rights or claim to the property are, or for that matter, what the basis of the other person's claim claim is. Without knowing both, it's impossible to answer your question.
Trying to transfer the deed to my grandmothers name because she is still living how do we do that?
The Only way to transfer title to your grandfather's property is to probate the will. The executor, when appointed by the court, will have authority over your grandfather's property, to dispose of it according to the will. Until that happens, no one has authority to sign anything at all... Read more »
This sounds like such an unusual and strange thing to do that I feel certain there is more to this story. However, on the facts stated, you have no damages. The fur will grow back. Although it would be an assault on a person, animals are property.
I am looking to form a new corporation but I want to be able to use the designator of PA on my assumed name not necessarily on my official filed business name. Is that an option? I am a physician.
No. A "PA" means professional association. A “professional association” is defined as an association, as distinguished from a partnership or a corporation, that is formed for the purpose of providing the professional service provided by: doctors of medicine, doctors of osteopathy,... Read more »
Presumably this kind of problem is not addressed in your deed restrictions - if there is, that will govern. If not, there's a legal process that has to be followed to have an animal declared dangerous, and it will require notice to you and a court hearing.
There is no non realty adendum and I was told I could take anything not attached to the house but the buyers atty is saying I cannot take the stove. My agent no longer responds to me
If it's permanently attached to the house, it's a fixture - meaning it's a part of the real estate - and should not be removed without an agreement to do so. The appliances are typically not permanently attached, but just plugged in, and are therefore personal property that can be... Read more »
I am working on the side for an out-of-state real estate investor for the past couple of months. He uses an LLC for all his properties. I do some admin work and showings for tenants.

You will always have personal liability for your own actions, no matter what agreements may be in place, and regardless of whether you are an employee or independent contractor. The landlord will also be liable for your actions taken as their agent, regardless of what agreement may exist between... Read more »

Contact one of the heirs and let them know about the situation. They may want to sell or to use the property themselves, and will need to start a probate proceeding to be able to transfer title.
my vehicle was towed and then the management falsely accused me of making a racial slur.
Yes, it's legal for private property owners to tell you that you're not permitted to be there, or to return.
It's perfectly OK to ask, and it's also perfectly OK for you to say no.
my lease expired on march 23rd 2021. Originally I had given a 30 day notice (what’s required per my lease) and was planning on moving to a new complex, but decided to retract my notice and just transfer units (switch from 1 to 2 bed). I have been waiting for over a month for my transfer request... Read more »
Your old lease expired, and you haven't signed a new one. For most leases, this means you're a month to month tenant. Check your lease to be sure. If that's the case, you must give a 30 day notice to terminate the lease.
In a civil court or is it just too bad until they refile their tax status
I don't know of any grounds for claiming half of someone else's stimulus check. But then, I also don't know of any grounds to file taxes jointly if you're not married, either.
I found out this was from years ago, and am I believe my ex wife opened the credit card and I was unaware of it. I gave an answer to the court and am now awaiting whatever comes next, not sure if I need to secure an attorney for an anticipated court date. ANy guidance and advice would be... Read more »
You may have a number of defenses - I'd start by looking at who signed the credit card agreement, and checking how old the debt is. What's next depends on where the case is filed. If it's in the Justice of the Peace court, a trial date will be next. If it's in County or... Read more »

my landlord has never filed evection on me and also the cdc evection ban has been exstended through june. I have gotten rental assistance for ny past due rent, but she has given me until midnight to get my things out of my home. I have no where to go. what should I do?
The CDC's order is not absolute - it only limits evictions for non-payment of rent. Your landlord can still evict for other lease violations, and if you have a month to month tenancy, the landlord can terminate the lease, and then evict. Without knowing the basis of the eviction, no one can... Read more »
he has not paid the taxes on the land and it is still 100% in my name as owner, Is there a limitation on getting it transferred, do I get to keep the land if I pay the taxes, to use as collateral or sale.
Presumably the divorce decree awarded the property to him, and then by signing the Special Warranty Deed you have confirmed that grant to him. Therefore, the property no longer in your name, no matter who the tax bills are going to.
If you want it back, you could buy it back a the tax... Read more »
