No, it is not technically "your" money. It is the owners option to fix the gate or to leave it and pocket the money. It will be his loss in the future, if he ever decides to sell the property or whatever, he'll wish then (after the $$ is long gone) that he went ahead and fixed it now- just let it go and don't stress about it

Serve notice, and if that doesn't work sue.\n\nSince property is involved it's probably best to get it lawyered, but a solicitor's letter will probably do the trick.

You should have definitely gotten something in writing before you turned over any money.  You have a contract with this person and they probably have the upper hand because you gave them the consideration and they need to give you the dog.  If they don't give you the dog you can sue them, however, if they are willing to give you the dog I'm not hopeful you'd get your money back instead.  Of course there may be loopholes, and I don't know all the facts, so if it doesn't work out you should at least consult an attorney. Good luck and sorry to hear about the job.

I think you have a legitimate complaint. How did they get you banking information to begin with?  I think if you authorize them to take money out of your account they should have your voice recorded giving them permission to take out the $600.00, on whatever date it is they took it out on. Get your information from the bank and call them back and turn the tables on them and ask them who gave them authorization to take the money out on this date, and that you want proof of it. You will be coming in for the proof and taking it to your attorney to review. If you are able to pick it up don't tell them you are going to your attorney until they hand over the proof. Also, ask them to highlight where you gave them permission to take this  extra $600.00. If you ask for the proof and they can't come up with it they will have to put it back in your account immediately. Make sure you tell them so. If they won't put the money back into your account and they give you a paper that is showing proof that you didn't authorize you will have to get an attorney. I hope not but they can't get away with doing things like this. Also, threaten to call the local newspaper and tell them what they did. See how they like that. You could also call the police and ask them if you have any recourse with this company. Usually going on the news scares the daylights out of them because it hurts their business.

I would send him a letter informing him that you have contacted a lawyer regarding the matter and the issue needs to be solved by such-and-such date. After that? Small claims court. Take it to Judge Judy!

Time to get serious about the situation.  You have a contract and she has voided the contract with the bad check so she is out.  Did she tell you in advance about the bank problem?  If no then she is a con-artist and she will promise to pay in a few days and there will always be delays, stories etc.  She is bad news and you don't need to support her.   Kick her out asap and let someone else be duped by her.  Trust me I am in a similar business and I have heard every sort of excuse and sob story.  Don't give her any more time.  Go through a legal avenue so you son't have to listen to her stories first hand and fel sorry for her.  The next landlord will get the same bad business.

You probably have no case at all.  One of the contractual agreements that you both signed is for delivery of a clear title.  Since he can't deliver that at present, the agreement should be null and void.\n\nIf he reasonably believed that he had title when he offered the house for sale you probably have no recourse.\n\nEven if you do have a case, you're limited to actual damages in most cases unless outright fraud was involved.\n\nAs always, check with a local attorney who specializes in real estate law for advice specific to your situation.  (And next time, get an attorney up front.)

If not in writing it's going to be tough to fight it. Unless it was specifically addressed in your verbal agreement they have every legal right to ask for additional deposit. Obviously if you've been there for 10 years you must like the place a lot; probably not worth fighting.

It sounds to me like the buyers' lawyer is trying to shake you down.  Depending on the state you're in, the closing ends all debate unless an issue is agreed in writing, there is a violation of a statutory warranty, or misrepresentation can be proven.  Since there are other factors that may be in play here, I can't give you an air tight solution, but my first impression is that you are not liable ($6000 to fix flashing?), and you are not liable - with some exceptions - for other repairs, as a matter of law.  You should take the problem to the lawyer that handled your closing, for advice.  Like it or not, you may need legal representation, and your original lawyer is the logical one to contact.  Hope this helps.

He cant prove it was you then.\nIf he sues he will have to sue all tenants at the time. Also if there was a deposit he can take the deposit but chances are the lawsuit will get thrown out of court.\n\nLook specifically in your contract to see if he retains any rights to file legal claims against you after the fact (some people have tricky contracts they write up) If not, then I wouldnt worry too much. Now im not a lawyer, nor do I play one on tv so this is solely my opinion.\n\nI would suggest telling him to shove it up his a**

Don't pay them!!!!  It doesn't matter who's in possesion of the papers - if they don't get payed they'll come after him, not you.  They're still his bills, with his name and his address on them.  If he just walks over and puts them in your mailbox that doesn't make you responsible for them.\n\nIf he's actually using your address on the bills that's a different story.  In that case you can, and should, sue him.  You can also alert the police, who can arrest him.\n\nOh, and if you've been paying them with a credit card you just might be able to get the credit company to cancel the charges (at least the most recent ones).  This would result in his utilities, etc. getting shut off immediately.\n\nI'm pretty sure it's not illegal to put things in people's mailboxes - just to take them out - and it's not illegal to give your own mail to someone else.  So I don't think the mail tampering thing works.\n\nBTW, I do know you're only joking, but I wouldn't put it past some of the people on Yahoo! Answers to be reading this thinking they were just about to ask the same thing :)

There is one an only way to get your money or part of it back. In a very innocent way ask him to sell to you something valuable he owns, like a laptop or TV set. Tell him that you need this item and that you would pay him in a few days, (it is incredible but this kind of people almost always believe that) and do not pay him until he pays you.  I had done it many, times and believe me, it works.

Well, if you're buying it then you should be the one responsible for the upkeep. If you were renting it would be his place to fix it, but it's your problem now. Good luck.

You can't sue him what is it with people wanting money for noting now days. Try calling the police with a disturbing the peace charge.

Go see a real estate attorney and tack on as many other things as possible into the law suit.  Not to be a jerk, but it is often the only way to remendy some situations, but I just like to sue people too.

It is kinda low of him to withhold your property like that, however, it is a landlords right in many states to withhold certain property until full payment is made. If you want your stuff back I would pay him what you owe as to avoid being sued make sure to get a receipt for your payment. Good Luck
