Ok, I am taking on yet another task that is very frustrating.
We are currently renting our house right now for a really good price. Well we have had several problems with our landlord. We have water damage that still has not been fixed since the summer, and the garage door just recently got fixed that originally he was trying to make us pay for because he accused us of hitting it with a car which later he found out he was wrong and it was his own fault for installing the door himself. This house is nice but it needs lot of work. So we have decided we wanted something else because we would have to put too much money in this house and it's already going for $170,000. When he bought the house, he did all the repairs and installed everything half ass. So after this garage thing happened we decided we were going to sign the lease as long as we could break it at any time, and we would continue to look for another house to rent.
Well I looked into all of our options. I'm still waiting to hear back on how much we would qualify for a home loan, but I'm 100% approved. Well right before this garage deal our landlord said he would email over the paperwork for the lease..ok no big deal! But haven't seen it. Well then today he sends me an email and says they have decided to put the house up on the market in May and would we be interested?
This frustrates me because now I have a deadline to find a house. We were going to rent and then decided we would stay here to save money to buy a house in the spring, but I don't want to rent another house only to move out within a couple months. Not to mention we won't be able to find a rental paying what we are paying for what we have. I don't think we'll be able to take care of the stuff we need to fix ( my bf's credit) in time to buy a house instead of renting. I'm so angry, and I hate not knowing.. Any suggestions? And I'm new to all this house buying stuff so I have no clue how it all works. Any advice would help on this one.
