majmunovic | Should i just abandon my house? |
well, 2 years ago i bought a fixer uper house, and for the last year ive been trying to get a permit and ive been denied and denied and denied because federal law from FEMA says i cant build big additions in my house because i live in a flood zone, the insurance on the house is skyrocketing and so is the taxes and im real fed up with paying for it and im tiered of these laws, i know that this house would never sell at its current condition or sell high enough for me to pay off the morgage, would it be a good idea just abandon it and leave my state?
and im serious, this isnt a joke |

Put it on the market and try to at least get out of it what you owe. If you walk away, the bank will foreclose and they can take a judgment out against you for the balance of what you owe (including their attorneys fees and foreclosure costs) and what they sell it for. Also, you credit will be screwed. |

Foreclosure is becoming a huge option for people in sinking home loans.
My advice: Buy another house or get into a lease before you allow this one to be abandoned. The foreclosure will ruin your credit for the next 12 months, and will remain on your credit for 7 years, so get into your next house while you can, and then allow foreclosure to take place. |

How about doing something to your house that will bring up the value so that you aren't out sooo much money?
I think that you are going to regret screwing up your credit over a house. |

Ethically, it is not right. That said, sometimes walking away does make sense. Maybe you could try a shortsale, where the bank is willing to accept less than what you owe. Call your lender and tell them you cannot afford the home anymore and you want to do a shortsale. If they accept, have a good realtor that is experienced in shortsales list the property for you.
If you walk away, your credit is ruined, regardless if you change states. A shortsale will show on your credit as a "negotiation," which is not anywhere near as bad as a foreclosure. |

Before you buy something, it is always a great idea to check with the local planning and permits divisions to see if the property can be developed the way you want.
Offer it for sale, there are plenty of people out there looking for fixers.
If you are fed up now, wait to you see how fed up you will be if you allow your house to foreclose. It will destroy your credit and you will pay more for anything that is based on credit score. You won't be just abandoning it and walking away. |

Seriously, contact those people with the "we buy ugly houses" ads, they buy houses like what you're stuck with.
Don't just abandon it, but definitely try to get rid of it.
Sorry that happened to you! |

K I would never suggest abandoning your home. That would be the worst thing that you can do. What you can do is put it together enough with the cheapest product to make it liveable and then put it on the market for just over what you owe on it. That way you can hope that it will sell quickly, and you can break even. You will never be able to buy again if they foreclose on the house if you abandon it, stay strong, get it liveable as soon and as cheap as you can and put it on the market. |

leaving the state isn't going to solve the major credit problems you'll experience down the road. If you abandon the house the city could come after you for the condition the property will eventually deteriorate into, the mortgage company will foreclose on you and that will ruin your chances of ever owning real estate or even renting an apartment, buying a car, getting a loan.
Repair your house and sell pay off the debt as much as you can. next time check to see if you can add additions to a house BEFORE buying a fixer upper. |
