    Warrant

    Since you are in another country why not look into figuring out exactly what is going on? You can call the county, city, state where you have these old charges and find out if you are still wanted for them. You are most certainly in the best position to negotiate with the prosecutor about...

    Reclaim property

    The taxes I searched for showed Exempt, and also verified with the assessors office. My guess is because the city owned the property and again another guess would be they don't pay taxes to themselves if I worded it correctly. I am sure there will be taxes for 2019. Possibly for December...

    Reclaim property

    Price was $3400.00. Been burned by title insurance and title company before. They do make mistakes. I made one mistake on the deed. I prepared an affidavit of sale with the purchase price which was required by TN. They just stamped my deed instead, and had me fill in the price on one of...

    Ingress/egress easement rights

    Said roadway being platted for the specific purpose of providing private ingress/egress to a tract as necessary. I do see the word private in there. I would put a gate up. And if that didn't work add a lock and give keys to the owners you mention below. When I purchased I assumed that the 2...

    Can a Landlord evict without formal written notice?

    The few times I have been to an eviction hearing I did send notice. I used delivery confirmation with a tracking number. I have all my papers in hand. In that particular court none of it really mattered. The county made me wait out the number of required days after notice is sent before they...

    Reclaim property

    The records I found today have a court document with a decree paragraph, and clerk and masters report. Dated November 2017 for a deliquent 2013 tax bill. Never seen one of these before, but looks like a lawsuit with the county as plaintiff. The previous owner is defendant. The county became...

    Am I still responsible for rent?

    The landlord is correct. You are responsible until there is another tenant in there. Keep in mind they would have to go to court, and win a judgement against you. Then they would have to pursue collecting on it. They could not collect on future rents owed. Basically you are responsible for...

    Reclaim property

    Yes the county took the property several years ago. They we're unable to sell it at auction until recently. No idea about the deeds as they are closed. Tomorrow I will have a better idea.

    Reclaim property

    I see... I did find Tennessee has one year for deliquent taxes. So the county holding the property for several years before actually selling it makes no difference. The previous owner can still reclaim the property based on the date it was sold at auction.

    Reclaim property

    Tennessee Hello I am looking at buying a home where the owner purchased it from the county. I assume the county had it for taxes owed. The current owner who is selling has had the property for two months. He told me the county had the property for several years before it sold. Any chance a...

    Is it legal to not accept mail for non-tenants?

    You could go to the post office and speak to the postmaster with the mail in hand. Politely ask what if anything can be done as you are weary of writing return to sender.

    Maximum interest rate

    Thank you for the replies. I did find something else that mentions charging 10%. I don't know if it is worth taking a risk for 1 point of interest, but it does seem clear to me it is ok to charge 10% on any contract. If I am reading it correctly. 408.030. Interest, maximum rate allowed —...
