Seeking Advice Asap. Please Help!!

Hi K.,

Most 1st consults are free. Speak to a real estate attorney; it seems very unusual to lose a property that you own, with a clear title.

Your father-in-law could have gotten a home equity, or some other type of loan to save his townhome. It's still worth looking into, even though he's already been evicted. A good attorney can get a "stay" through the court system, until things are straightened out.

If these are city, county, and state taxes, they must be paid; as well as the dues. But the townhouse is the collateral for the loans to pay off his indebtedness.

Pray to our Father which art in heaven in Jesus name; and then step out on your faith and do the advised things listed above, and see THE LORD wORK things out on the behalf of your family.

Your father-in-law does not need to buy his property a second time, but need to benefit from it.

ALL need to focus on helping dad win this victory. When he is gone to heaven, then his heirs will benefit.

Be Blessed,

Beverly

K.,
I'm confused it sounds like your sil wants to buy the house for financial gain instead of for her dad to have somewhere to live. It sounds like your husband wants to make sure he has some power in the say I'm guessing to keep his dad safe? If this is the case it sounds like he is going to have to have power of attorney as well or some financial input to be able to be equal with his sibling in this matter. I would definately get a lawyer because the sister may walk away owning the house. I wish his dad would have came to yall for help before now. I have a friend's sister and mom go through this. The mom let the daughter live in her house because she went to live with her parents to care for them in their old age well the daughter was asked only to pay the taxes and hoa costs each year, well she didn't and my friends mom lost the house and the daughter had to leave the residence, then the mother found out about it and was able to pay the back taxes and hoa and liens and save her residence. I think she had the chance to do this before it was put on market to other buyers. Goodluck and prayer to this situation.

Is your father in law dead? Incapacitated? Why would his daughter need power of attorney? Why can't your father in law handle this matter himself? Why does she want the house? Just to sell it? That doesn't make sense. I need more information. My babysitter went through a similiar experience because her husband left her. He would tell her that he did pay the taxes and never did. I called the tax office on her behalf and they told me she had one year to buy the house from the person who bought it at auction with like a 10% mark up. Have your husband call the tax office directly and they will tell him what he should do. If your father in law is not dead, or incapacitated, then he needs to do this himself if he still wants his house. If he doesn't want it, then just let it go. Let her buy and her sell it and stay completely out of it. Why would she give your husband money if he did not take out he loan to buy it back? That just sounds kind of fishy to me.

Dad is alive and responsible for his own debt . . if the two kids want to go in together and buy the house out from the lien then they both own the house to do as they please . . .

Hi K.,
I don't know what your husband's right are. But, I do have an incredible attorney (and I never thought THOSE words would come out of my mouth!) to recommend. His name is Geoffrey Sansom. ###-###-####
We have used him for 2 years for various things - and he's always been fair and not out to just make a buck. He'll meet with you the first time for free and the advise you on your options. He tends to be conservative in his advice too - not just wanting to sue, sue, sue. Good luck!

Whom ever pays the taxes and any past due assessment fees will own the property out right. If you husband puts money into reclaiming the property, he would be a part owner.

Hi K.:

You can call the law office of Simoneaux and Frye for a consultation. The fee for you will be reduced because of your Mamasource membership. Tell Jeffrey that T. asked you to call. The number is ###-###-####. Thank you. T.
