I need to leave an abusive partner but I’m on the lease. (LONG READ)

Backstory me (f) and my boyfriend (both 25) of about four years just moved to Michigan from Illinois becuase my boyfriend got a job out here for being a paramedic and I currently am out of a job. (In school for veterinary technician and currently looking for one). My mother is paying about $1k in a $1.4(ish) apartment because she wanted to support me. (Im not sure if his parent know or not) I should note that we’ve been out here for about a month but recently he’s put his hands on me to scare me. He hasn’t left marks or bruises but he has charged at me and gave me looks that I know I should avoid; so all and all he hasn’t left any “evidence” for my landlord to see. I should have known before coming here that nothing was going to change (my fault). As a first time renter by myself (my name is on the lease signed) and having my family pay for majority of it but also his family being more “financially set” than mine (my mom is a single mother from actual south side Chicago and his parent from a suburb city and owning their own business) I’m scared they’re going to come after us. I don’t want my mom to financially ruin from this because she just got out of Bankruptcy about 2 years ago and her credit will not handle this. I brought this onto myself I understand that but I need any help. Any suggestions. Anything. I’ve been sleeping on a couch for as long as we’ve been here. My mom will be there for me if it will financially set her back (I have been talking to her but we are both not knowing what to do) but we are looking for the “easiest” way to get me home and cost affective on her if possible. I’m sorry if my grammar is bad right now it is currently 1:55 AM and I’m super emotional. Thank you for anyone and everyone who gives advice.

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/
