Question by Teresa: I just bought a house via “tax deed sale” and previous tenants won’t leave, how do I get them out? in FL?
I don’t have a tenant agreement so I’m not sure if I use the eviction process thru court system, someone said the to evict for “possession only” because I don’t have any agreement w/them.
I just want them out quickly and I’m afraid they will destroy the place. Can I also take them
to small claims court for any damages they cause?

do you have the deed, send them a letter of eviction if that don’t work call the cops & file for trespassing & maybe court

Question by Sugar Magnolia: Me and my ex bought a house in 09 I got 00 tax credit, but now I moved.?
My ex-husband and I bought a house in Mar 09. The mortgage and everything was in HIS name only. Then he left me. I lived in the house. In the divorce he took me to court and tried to get me to pay the mortgage but was denied b/c he wrote a statement the week after he left that he would pay the mortgage until June 10. He stopped paying it in March 10. I claimed the full 00 tax credit for the purchase since I was the one who still lived there. I called the mortgage company at the end of May to find out the status of the loan. It was already in foreclosure status before my first payment would have been due so I didn’t pay anything in June or after. I figured that he broke the contract first by not paying the mortgage up to June. The house went into foreclosure with Sheriff Sale date of December 6, 2010. I had nowhere to go so I bought my own house. I closed on the new house on December 17, 2010. Meanwhile there was a delay in the foreclosure and they extended the Sheriff’s Sale until March 7, 2011. I moved out of the house partially. I still have furniture and other things there and my mail still goes there. So I get a letter from his lawyer stating that he is going to try to refinance the house and bring it out of foreclosure. I am figuring that I will have to pay back the 00 since neither of us, currently, live there. I got a letter from the IRS about the foreclosure “reminding” me that if I do not live there that I would have to pay it back.
Now, I am trying to file my 2010 taxes. I am eligible for a return of about 00. My friend is telling me that if I don’t pay back the 00 when I file my 2010 taxes that I can go to jail for fraud. But that doesn’t make any sense to me b/c the home has only been vacant for two weeks and I am not completely moved out yet. Plus I am not sure if my ex will be moving in.
My ex and I are not on good terms, in fact, the last time we spoke to each other was in January 10 and then all communications were through our lawyers. However, I would rather pay him 00 then pay back the IRS all 00. What would you do? Do you think I will get in trouble with the IRS if I don’t pay them my 2010 refund?
I KNOW THAT I OWE BACK THE 00 BUT DO I HAVE TO GIVE THE IRS MY ENTIRE 2010 REFUND THIS YEAR TO PAY IT BACK? WILL I GET IN TROUBLE IF I DON’T USE MY 2010 REFUND TO PAY IT BACK? IF HE MOVES BACK IN, CAN I JUST GIVE HIM HIS PART OF IT? WE ARE STILL MARRIED!!!! AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LAST 2-3 WEEKS ONE OF US HAVE LIVED THERE SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED!!!!!
THE 00 WAS NOT A LOAN!!!!!!! IT WAS AFTER OBAMA CHANGED IT FROM A LOAN TO A TAX CREDIT!!!
Ok, so if the last night that I stayed at the other house as my primary residence was January 1, 2011, then I don’t have to pay it back until taxes are due for 2011 and I have to pay it all back at once instead of on a payment schedule? Do I understand that correctly?

Answer by tro
it would appear that since you actually bought another principal residence in 2010 you essentially abandoned the one you got the FTHB credit for and you are liable for your half of that credit
your possessions might be there but you bought another house which is your principal residence–that’s the key

Question by AnswersGuru: I’m starting out real estate investing and a book that I bought talks about Door Knocking On Foreclosures…

Instead of bothering people who are losing their homes, wait for the bank to get it and buy it way cheaper. That is the way to make tons of money.
