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

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

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...
