Re: Teacher Protests Disturbing Neighborhood

The kids were not just "walking and cheering". They were made to wear posters and shout out loud. Lot of people saw that on Washingotn and Grand intersection and outside Cornelia Bradford.
Just because the kids were with their parents doesnt give anyone a pass. There are parents who beat their kids as well - just because they are the parents, does it make it right? As far as using the logic of "learning from real life experience", well c'mon, you are telling that to justify pulling 4-5 years old? How many of you decided to sit in front of the kids, and told them about both the sides and then asked them "hey, so what do you think Which side is strong?" And the teacher's union or whoever leads these protests should have said NO to including kids in these protests. Being teachers, they should have known better.

it was sickening to see small kids being used in the demonstration in front of Cornelia Bradford... irrespective of merits of the case

thanks. I wasnt aware of it and the best I could see where the assessment records but not how to pay.
My taxes typically go through my mortgage company. Would I need to instruct NOT to pay because I'll pre-pay or since they will not see any amount outstanding, if if it is billed, they woudln't pay it? Trying to see how to best do it + avoid having to do rounds of City Hall. Currently, it is throwing out an error - Server Error in '/' Application.

Re: Can I withdraw after seller accepts my offer

To be more clear - The buyer mentions how much he/she plans to finance and signs on it, before it is accepted by the seller so you can't just arbitarily later increase that number.
However, in case you DO NOT get financing from the bank for the amount that you mentioned in the offer letter, signed and accepted, usually there is a contingency language around it for you to refuse the transaction. Check the offer letter.

The first thing an attorney does in the 3 day period is make the offer null and void, which doesn't mean that the offer is cancelled but that now there is no timeline for buyers and sellers to align on any outstanding issues. It can be done within 2 days or 20 days . You get the idea.
Once that process is over, you are stuck unless you find something in inspection and do not align with the seller on who should pay.

I use samsung smartthings , and they work great to provide a notification about the leak. It can be used with IFTTT app to send an email, sms or phonecall in case something happens.
However, in the heater, we have a sensor with actuator to really cut off the water supply. Obviously more expensive and not remotely monitored.

Quite correct. So assuming $24K taxes at 1.9% taxes, the property would be at $1.26M. $200K reduction (because of increase in tax from 12 --> 24K) would be around 16% reduction in the property price or the new price would be $1.06M with new taxes around $20K @1.9%. Quite circular. By the way, because of reduction of taxes from $24K to $20K gives you $4K to renovate the place! So yeah, 15% decline assumption is around correct + $4K in your hand.

wtf is wrong with people who feel reval is a suffering? Who here can't understand the difference between % and $$? Please enroll in a 5th-grade class.
1. As an individual, an avg DTJC resident who has been sitting on his/her property since last reval was getting away with paying lower than the fair share of taxes in light of their increasing property value even after paying the same rate (%). 2. As a neighborhood, DTJC was paying a higher share (in $$$) of state because there are a lot more residents with higher value now and also driven by recent transactions at current market value + not to forget new construction that has come up in the last 30 years on both rental and condo side (Yes, even after the abatement, $ amount becomes substantial for e.g. 1% of $1000 > 2% of $400) What is common in the above two statements? Those who are in DTJC and have been sitting on their property since last reval are the ones who are REALLY GETTING AWAY WITH IT so far. So they should STFU, pay up and everyone then starts from the same line. Simple. If the taxes are too high, probably your home is too expensive for you to live in. Then, just sell it, monetize the gain and buy a place where you can pay the taxes.

How would PILOT? My bldg. has tax abatement and even the recently sold apts (and hence the reflected current market price) are paying around 1%-1.2% in taxes instead ~2%. Would this reval impact such properties as well?

Electrical Heater inspection mandatory?

---|---|---|---|---|

I installed an electrical heater from 1800 heaters and got a letter from them yesterday that it needs to be inspected and asked me to get it done, and then contact them in case of any issues.
I know vent cleaning etc are required but is the inspection for electrical heater also required periodically?

Re: Landlord Charge for AC Unit Installation
|

---|---|---|---|---|

Also, legally the AC unit becomes the property of the landlord as "chattel" (attachment to a property) unless they are trade fixture (doesnt seem in your case) or you have specific permission from the landlord that you still can take it when you leave the unit. This doesnt need to be written in any lease.
I would strongly suggest that you take landlord's permission. If this goes to court, you may not only use this AC unit, there will be ground for eviction AND you may loose security deposit if there is any damage to the new windows (setting aside the liability issue, which in itself is a big thing). If it goes to consumer court, don't rely on the lease as "capture all". This should be of more concern to you as Landlord has now specifically asked you to refrain from doing the installation on your own.

Did the builder change the construction plan or building materials after realizing that it is not going to be a rental? The reason I am asking this is because quality of a rental is far inferior to than that of a condo building (thin walls, applicances, etc )

Funny, no one answered OP's question. There's another post few lines down about the noise level on 18 Park coming from the same light rail station. Gulls Cove is a condo so may be better soundproofing, eh?
Just to pile up, use White Noise app on ios/android.

One BD apt floor plan is awesome. For 2 BRs I would go somewhere else (check out Liberty @ Windsor, etc). The ones in 18 Park are quite small.

If you are talking about your line (18), the one on 11th floor (1118) went for $655K (or ~$840 psf) last month, and it included parking. Your listing price looks like a good place to start with, and see the best that you can get from there. Your floor should anyways be above $640K (based on Nov'16 sale, 780 sq ft, 917, no parking)

Holy cow! I read the comments below on $869 psf aint crazy. And I am not even mad. If this goes through that means ~ 20% appreciation in not even one year! May the force be with you.
On pictures, I found that increasing the brightness and exposure usually make them look like much more professional and better-looking pictures. Happy clicking!

I'll be frank. $869 psf is crazy. Yes, even at these times. More so when even the parking is not included. Moreover, when it is a 1bd.
If you are doing a FSBO, just look at the comparables on 1 bd and list at the highest range, to start with. You do not want a listing stay open for a long time and make potential buyers wonder what's the deal here. Else use an experienced realtor or Redfin (if you want to save some cost)
