Q. So I leave the country for a couple months, and when I get back my husband has the carpet in our RENTED house destroyed. I dont know what he was doing, I'm sure there were a couple parties, etc, but now I need to remove it fast..It seems like a lot of dirt, like someone walked over it with their boots on. Any tips on how to remove this?
A. Things You�ll Need:
White cloths
Cool water
Spray bottle
All purpose carpet cleaning solution
Baking soda, talc or baby powder
Vacuum
Fan
Step1
Blot up excess moisture with a clean, white cloth. Do not scrub the stain, or it can spread and ruin the texture of the carpet.
Step2
Start working on the outside of the stain, and move your way into the center. Use this method with every step.
Step3
Spray a light mist of water over the stain. Blot the water with a clean, dry cloth. Continue to spray and blot until the stain is removed.
Step4
Use an all-purpose carpet cleaner for stubborn stains. Follow the manufacturer's instructions, working from the outside of the stain in.
Step5
Sprinkle a dry substance such as baby powder, baking soda or other absorbent powder to remove greasy stains from carpet. Vacuum the powder out of the carpet to remove any residue with water and carpet cleaner.
Step6
Rinse carpet cleaning solutions out of the carpet with cool water. Blot the area with a towel. Dry damp carpet by placing a fan in front of the wet area.
Step7
Vacuum the affected area after it is completely dry. Clean with additional water or cleaning solution if a stain still remains.

Can you give me tips when it comes to asking my landlord to sell me the house?
Q. I've been renting the house for 4 years. Pay rent every month with no problems. Keep the house nice. My landlord has been great. She fixes things when they break and she keeps her distance.
I'm getting married in 5 months and we (husband and I) would like to ask if we can buy the house.
Anyone have experience with this? Any tips you can give me? Thanks
If we don't buy the house, we will look for another house to buy and move from this one.

A. Just ask! I once had a landlord who asked me if I was interested in purchasing a house they owned that they had a tough time renting (I lived in an apartment at the time). They knew I was a college graduate and working full time, whereas most of their tenants were students.
In person would be ideal. Maybe you could mention a rent-to-own option where you continue to rent, and if the landlord decides to sell, a part of your rent would go to the down payment on the house. Risky because the landlord may not decide to sell, but worth asking for.

What are some good tips for tracking someone down?
Q. This guy rented my house, destroyed it and left all his junk there, and didn't pay the last two months of rent.
A. Did he have references or other contacts on his application or lease?
I would have said zabasearch.com or whitepages.com but it sounds like probably not enough time as gone by for him show up on those yet.

A. do what ever you can to go to college. yes, you will have student loans, but its worth it. do you mean 1,200 per month? 12k is 12,000 and thats over 144,000 per year which is mid/upper class income. assuming its the first number, you do have some options. the most important thing is to fill out forms for FAFSA. go to their website, its fafsa.gov or something like that. you basically have to file some forms reporting your families income and other information, so make sure your parents do it. it is really important for need-based financial aid and scholarships. also, talk to your counselor. he or she will be able to walk you through this process. also, go online and start searching for scholarships. there are tons out there that you can apply for, most have certain requirements and require an essay, but its definitely something that a lot of hs students neglect. there are also federal student loans that you can get, which the majority of people have. my cousin had over 100,000 in loans when she graduated, but she'll tell you it was worth it. another option is community college. its very affordable and you still get a college degree. if you want the college experience, look at in state schools (for ex. if you live in michigan, michigan state, michigan, western, etc. are a state school). theyre a lot cheaper for in state students. my best advice is to do what ever you can to go to college..in today's economy, its even hard to get a job with a college degree, let alone one without it. good luck!
