Michael asked:


I am looking to install a Geothermal Heat Pump. I am looking for a model that will heat liquid for Radiant Flooring, and then on the upper level I will use heat exchangers for a blower.
Did your invoice breakdown the price of installation and excavation. I am curious to see what I will be saving by excavating myself. Also, please let me know what type you have? Field, Well, or Pond?

air conditioner cleaning
Caroline H asked:


My window air conditioner dripped outside and left rust stains down our vinyl siding - I just tried power washing it with siding cleaner and I also used a Mr. Clean Magic eraser; neither worked all the way - it may be stained in to the siding. Any ideas of how to remove it or cover it? The siding is white. Thanks for any help!

How to sell my home for less than what I paid for it?

perfection1908 asked:


My husband and I bought a home about 2 years ago, the market dropped big and our home has depreciated. We purchased the house for $305,000 and at the moment at best we could sell for $270,000. My husband and I need to relocate for new jobs and our house feels like a black whole. How can we sell with out killing out credit?
The market around my home is dead. There are 8 homes for sale on my block and no amount of handy work is going to get me near what I bought for it.

My neighborhood is not the best and because the market is so slow the great neighborhoods about 5 miles south are now down to the prices that I purchased my home at for comprible sizes and newer ( my home is 49 years old), plus on a vacant plot of land they are building new home comprible at 315,000 and villas from 200,000.
And we need to sell FAST!!! My jon starts in early AUG and is Mid AUG.

mehammer35 asked:


My ex wife got the house in our divorce. Our property settlement did not require her to refinance or take my name off the mortgage. I offered to have her refinance the home at my expense just to get my name off the mortgage. She refused. Why? I want to know if she can sell the house without my signature?

How do I sell my home legally using a raffle?

David W asked:


I have a 500k home but only repo’s are selling, and need to move shortly. I’ve seen where people sell 5000, $100 raffle tickets and anything over market and fees goes to a charity. How do I do it, and what Legal boilerplate do I include? “Void where prohibited” covers most since many states and countries buy these on ebay. My state has a lottery so raffles are ok.

For Sale By Owner

Should I sell a home using an auction?

May 22nd, 2009 by admin | 1 Comment | Filed in Do It Yourself (DIY)
h nitrogen asked:


I want to sell a home fast and an auction seems the best route. I know they get about 10% compared to 7% for realtors.

But homes sold by auction usually sell for more than through the regular selling way or less.
