Q: The city is fixing to demolish my house it has been in front of the councilman and they ruled on tearing it down
This house is paid for 100%, no liens no mortgages this is all I have I'm 58 years old how can I stop them from tearing my house down
I cannot afford a lawyer they know this not yet their decision was based on city ordinance on dangerous and unsafe buildings the house is in good shape as far as being solid no walls are falling in there's no holes in the floor no rotten spots in the floor or the ceiling and I need to stop them from doing this
A: Either hire an attorney or do the research and represent yourself, quickly. Once the house is demolished there will be a lien filed for the cost. And that lien might be executed against the land.
