No i dont think that you ask for much. If it is what you offer to the other individual i cant see why you should settle for anything else. Although saying that you might want to open up and a bit and give some people the chance to show you what they are really like. Sme times people need some time to show their real self

That's no bargain...so purchase independently or tell him about it.  Maybe they are being raked over the coals..so to speak.

Definitely try to negotiate the price.  If they are not willing to negotiate on the base purchase price they will most likely be willing to negotiate the costs of extras.  And when it comes to tract homes, "everything" is extra.

Wron Question area. This is personal finance, not Romance.

The bank would much prefer you to make your payments compared to taking on a property.  Talk to them.  A lot of times they can work out a deal.

I would start to plant the seed with the landlord soon. You will be in a better position to negotiate with him if you have more time and thought invested. Start by dropping hints and let him know what you like and dislike about where you are. Also check out what similar areas in other retail locations are renting for. Not for the sake of moving, but to use in your negotiation process if needed.\n\nNegotiating is like dating. Not many people say yes to a marrige proposal on the first date. You have to court that person for some time before popping the big question.

better to do a partnership agreement. then you can specify your and his responsibilities and percentage of of ownership and liability

Sit down with him and tell him exactly what you posted. Well, maybe leave out the 'loathe' part but he deserves to know the rest. \n\nDon't stay with someone simply because of the financial obligations YOU have. That's unfair to both parties.

tell her she can have the reciept for half price - then you both win - you get 1/2 your money - and she only pays 1/2 price as well - no harm done...better than loosing all your money for no good reason

You are both legally responsible for the house mortgage since, as you said, you bought it together.\nNow would be a good time to come to some agreement on the house and/or any other properties you acquired together and allow one to buy the other one out, or sell the house and split the profits.

Negotiating can be win-win. The mission is to find the middle ground. It's delicate and takes time to read what the other person really wants. Everyone wants something. Find out their "wants" and play to them. If you go into it with the mentality of "me first" you'll lose in the long run. Establishing a long term relationship is the best way to getting long-term results. Burn someone on a deal and it will cost you in the future.

I would offer it to my partner for free.  Why would I talk money from the one I love for doing something to make them happy.

This is a very tough situation and I think that you need to figure out on your own who you want. So are you IN love with this person who gives you everything or are you just with him for that reason? Can he buy your love? Now what about your ex? Does he make you happy minus the money? If that is true then I think you know who to be with!

All things are negotiable. Here's how I would do it to benefit everyone involved:\n\n1. Create two seperate contracts, one a standard lease agreement and the other an assignable purchase option agreement.\n\n2. In the lease, have the tennant pay for all utilities and have them in his/her name. \n\n3. Create an assiganble purchase option contract, so that the tennant (now called Optionee) can purchase the property within a two year period of a stated price. Now, depending on the rent of the first contract, I would modify the price here. Also, depending on the rent on the first contract, I would modify the non-refunable option fee. You want to keep this contract as an assignable contract in order to allow the tennant to assign it to another person (like his brother) if he is unable to purchase the property because his credit is still bad or whatever. \n\nIt's also important to keep these as two seperate contracts because if the tennant fails to pay, you can simply evict him. In a lease purchase option contract, depending on the terms, you will need to do more than just evict him because the tennant's interest in the property is more than a regualr tenant. Remember, there is a reason why the banks won't finance this guy. Are you willing to take the risk of doing so when the banks won't?\n\nAs Teran stated, stay away from contracts for deed because then you have to jump through hoops to get rid of this person and avoid your lender at the same time.\n\nRegards

You can offer to pay - but do it discreetly. Most guys like to be a gentleman and pay for everything - but it does get expensive! Maybe, let the guy pay. Then discreetly give him the money to pay for something - so it looks like he's paying. He will think you're thoughtful - you've considered his finances and understood his pride! \n\nOf course you can take it in turns paying. You also have to take into account who has the higher income - if he does and he insists on paying - maybe you should let him - if there are no strings attached. But some men see paying for everything as "buying" you and you then feel under their control. Don't let that happen.
