The owner of the propery that is assessed property tax. No mobile home owner is ever assessed property tax because THAT tax is reserved for the owner of land.
I have always treated that as a 3 year SOL, because you sue for Conversion and Tortious Breach of Fiduciary Duty. A 6 year Contract Breach SOL is doubtful but might be argued.

There are at least 2 different kinds of foreclosures in Maryland, and they have similar but slightly different rules. A house can be foreclosed because the owner didn't pay the mortgage or it can be foreclosed because it went through tax sale.
In either case, a house cannot be... Read more »

If I understand the question, you resided in an apartment until June 6 but your lease ended on April 30. That means you 'held over' a little over a month.
Therefore, you owe a little over a month in extra rent on a 'month to month' basis (look at your lease, I bet it... Read more »
My parents died intestate with their home in foreclosure status. I have been told I am not responsible for the loan itself, however, I was served with an Owner for Joiner as Defendant because I am listed on the deed.

You are not legally responsible for the debt. However, if you wish to inherit or retain the property, you will have to pay off that debt.
I am a buyer, went into contract with seller. We were to close but seller's went to court for bankruptcy. Is there anything I can do? What are some options that I can guarantee buying the home?
You need to hire an attorney to represent you in the bankruptcy case. You can probably still buy the property from the trustee, but the trustee is who you have to deal with from this point forward.
can I negotiate a price due to the shape it is in? It needs a lot of work. I had it appraised, but it's still too much. Also, who holds the deed to the house. The heirs or the bank. I have seen enter into a deed instead of foreclosure, but I want to buy the house. Any help would be great.... Read more »

In 2013, my mother passed away leaving me as the sole heir to her estate in her will. My father has encountered mortgage trouble, and I have occupied the home alone for one year now. The current mortgage was taken out in 2005 in both of their names, and statements come addressed to her estate.... Read more »

I need to cook for my kids.
I don't see in lease were im liable for this.
If I refuse rent can they evict me now?

Homeowner lost her job and couldnt pay mortgage for a few months. A servicer suggested that a mortgage modification is available if payments are made. The homeowner made the payments to the servicer, but the modification never occurred and now is at risk for foreclosure.
Have you appealed the decision? When did you apply? What is your current interest rate?
There are a lot of factors that go into a loan modification. Just because you didn't qualify 6 months ago, doesn't mean you won't qualify now.
is this something I should be worried about or is this standard procedure

It will need them if your modified mortgage goes into default and must be foreclosed again. So... Read more »
The land patent was obtained at the same time period as I revested title, "citizen" for "sovereign" when I discovered The United States of America became The United States of America INC. in 1878. DC became an entity and was used as collateral to UNK as collateral for money... Read more »
Assuming the land patent is in your chain of title, If you granted the land as security for the mortgage, then no the mortgage is superior to your personal claim of title as a citizen, etc. If there are two chains of title, then the one with an earlier Warranty Deed is probably superior due to...

Written off does not mean "not owed". The closing company will likely contact the mortgage company and withhold the sums owed from disbursements.
I'm wanting to fight a foreclosure and pay off the mortgage but, without all the added fees because, I feel the bank has grossly mishandled the entire process. It seems to have started when the original lending bank merged into it's parent bank and returned payments that had been made.... Read more »
