What’s the safest way to connect a portable generator to a house.?

Monday, March 15th, 2010

On occasion I do home repairs on houses that have no power because homes are in foreclosure etc… What’s the quickest & safest way to repeatedly connect to a portable generator to a main panel. Would like to know proper equipment & procedures if possible.Thank you in advance.

Buy an appropriate sized extension lead about 50 foot long.

Put generator matching plug on one end and heavy duty "alligator" clips on other. (Be sure to color code them!)

Run line to main panel IN THE HOUSE, turn OFF main breaker, remove cover.

IF there is a double "vacancy" in the breaker strip connect clips there, IF not, remove a breaker and connect. (For 110/220 you need to remove a 220 double breaker or 2-110 singles. IF singles they MUST be on different "legs"! The circuits on removed breakers will NOT have power.)

Be sure to remove connections AND replace cover whenever leaving premises.

I specified the panel INSIDE the house for 2 reasons.

1. According to code, ANY "auxiliary" power connection at the "access" panel is required to have a transfer switch to prevent power being fed back into the lines leading to the premises. (THESE switches are EXPENSIVE!!)
(THIS is ALSO why you want the MAIN breaker INSIDE OFF. FOR SAFETY!!)

2. MANY times the outside panel has a seal on the cover which you do NOT want to remove. (In SOME cases, removal is illegal if done by anyone other than the power company or electrical inspector.)

That leaves your generator OUTSIDE, and your connections INSIDE where they are protected from weather.

Effect of home foreclosure?

Saturday, March 13th, 2010

My home is now valued very less than what I owe on my loan.. Is that a better idea to foreclose the house and if so what is the procedure and how it will affect me. Or there any other option..? Please advice. Thanks.

A home foreclosure will devastate your credit rating (as it should). You will lose a minimum of 200 points, probably more! It will also prevent you from buying a house for at least 2-3 years.

When you signed the note and agreed to the payments, you didn’t agree that you’d pay only if the property remained at the same value or increased, you said that you’d pay for it. If the property went up by $100,000 would you expect the bank to share in the profit? No? Then why do you expect the bank to share in the loss?

My advice is to keep paying as agreed. Especially if you don’t have to move and you aren’t having trouble making your payments.

good luck!

What Do I Have To Know About Buying A HUD Foreclosure?

Friday, March 12th, 2010

A HUD foreclosure is a different kind of government owned property. The homes offered through the HUD foreclosure procedure are offered to low and medium income families but you must qualify to receive them. The general public must already be accepted for a loan to bid on these HUD Foreclosure homes. Though anyone who meets the loan requirements can qualify for a HUD Foreclosure home, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) will give priority to prospect homeowners who intend to live in the houses they purchase.

Mom lost house in a foreclosure…now looking to rent.?

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

My mom’s house was foreclosed on and she is now looking to rent. What is the procedure for places that require a credit check? She is worried that she won’t even be able to rent something because of her obviously poor credit. Should she be worried?

She could be worried in apartment complexes, she might get past the radar in a multi family home, or where she can explain to a home owner directly. She might have more trouble when dealing with a compnay, but might still be able to get through with an extra month or 2 security deposit.

Check out www.realtytrac.com or www.buybankhomes.com. These websites will also have support on their website for what it takes to purchase a home in foreclosure. You have to check to see if New York is a judicial state or not.

You normally have 3 options to purchase a foreclosure.
Option 1 - You can purchase in pre-foreclosure directly from the seller if they are motivated. These are normally called NOD’s or Notice of Default stage.
Option 2 - Purchase the property on the auction date when the lender sells at a courthouse or through a foreclosure sales company.
Option 3 - Purchase after the auction date normally called an REO or real estate owned where the property reverts back to the lender which no lender has any desire to hold failing assets on their books.

Can I Refinance my Mobile Home Mortgage after almost 1 Year into my Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Case?

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

I have managed to fall behind another 3 months, now the mortgage company (WAMU), I’m not going to mention them by name, are trying to take me back to court and have the Motion for Relief to Stay lifted so that they can go ahead with starting Foreclosure procedures. I hear, in Texas, the whole process is usually done in about 3 months. Most cases dont even make it to the Judiscial level!

why don’t you start earning some money..
get a room mate..to help with expenses
i have a tent..you can buy..or a cardboard box..for free.

simply put… where/what are you going to do if you don’t change this situation…
live under a bridge in a cardboard box..
move into a dumpster..
