Legal Answers
61 Questions Answered
- Q. Regarding second mortgage?
- A: I have no idea. It would depend on a variety of factors, including the outstanding principal balance of your current mortgage, the amount you are considering borrowing, the market value of the property now and what it may be when you may sell the property, what type of property is involved, the loan to value ratio, what the cash would be used for, what your current debts and known future debts may be, your overall financial status, etc., etc. Attorneys are not financial advisors - we just know what the laws are.

- Q. Is my landlord allowed to enter our basement n walk around outside of house anytime he wants without notice
- A: A landlord is not permitted to enter into any area which is leased to a tenant, unless the lease expressly contains an exception permitting it or under a dire emergency. Whether the landlord may enter into the basement or outside the house (I’m assuming you’re leasing a house), depends on whether these areas are included in the areas leased to you. Typically, a lease contains a definition of the “leased premises” or it will contain a description of what exactly is leased to you. If the basement and/or the area surrounding the house are included as part of the lease, then the landlord is not permitted to enter into these areas. unless the lease contains any exception.
- Q. Escrow issues
- A: There is no way to answer your question without knowing (a) whether the buyer signed the agreement of sale; (b) if the buyer signed the agreement of sale, what the agreement said about the buyer’s obligation to pay a good faith deposit (a.k.a. escrow amount); and (c) whether the agreement of sale made the buyer’s obligation to pay the good faith deposit contingent on the buyer’s satisfaction with the Sellers Disclosure Statement.
