Leasing Issue

Hello guys,

I am not sure if this is the right place to post such inquiries

My uncle signed a lease with one of the apartments complex for a 1 bed room. My friend is not from U.S but he is here for medication purposes in John hopkins, Baltimore MD.

The lease office for some reason didn't allow him to go and look at the apartment before signing the lease. I really not sure why the hell would someone sign a lease without seeing it physically. But I believe there is a sample room in the lease office that he saw and thought it would be the same.

Anyways, the apartment was the worst you would ever see not only because everything is broken but also he figured at night that its a full of roaches that he cannot even sleep in it. No kidding there was like thousands and thousands of german roaches that he couldn't even sleep and booked a room in the hotel.

Next day he went to the lease office and told them the issue and they didnt want to change his apartment nor break the lease. Until they agreed to have a 3rd party to check the apartment roaches condition. Next day they checked it and confirmed this apartment in very bad condition and the lease manager approved to give him a release from the lease.

Now the issue is, he released him only 2 days after siging the lease which was on early June. But still he didn't refund the 4k USD deposit. Every time we stop in the lease office he doesn't open the door. One day he opened it and he told him that he's in a meeting and he will call him back and never did.

We tried to put pressure on him, until he accepted to give us a number of they guy who supposed to refund us whom is living in Colorado Lol?! We called that number its disconnected and doesn't exists.

I saw the lease it doesn't have any piece of information of the apartment owner

Now to be honest I am not sure how to help him out This guy doesn't want to refund him No one to contact

Can someone guide me? Is there like some estate associations that I can call to help me with this issue

Thanks

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...

Pool fill without engineer oversight

We are in the process of purchasing our first ever home in CA and we just discovered in the disclosures that the new build property we are purchasing previously had a swimming pool which was filled without an engineer onsite to approve the work (details from disclosure below). Is this something we should be concerned with or not? Is it something we should have additional inspections conducted on? We are originally from the UK and not really sure what to do with this information and if it is concerning or not. A POOL DID EXIST PREVIOUSLY. COPING, TILE, GUNNITE AND REBAR WERE ALL REMOVED AND DIRT AND CLEAN DRAIN ROCK WERE USED TO FILL IT IN. COMPACTED FILL WAS NOT USED AND NO ENGINEER APPROVED THE DIRT AND DRAIN ROCK FILL IN submitted by /u/tommot82 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/dpyzw8/pool_fill_without_engineer_oversight/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
