Q. I'm renting a room in a house that is on the market. The landlords recently raised our rent. I heard that it may be illegal to raise the rent on a house that is for sale, but I am unable to find any proof of it. Any information would be great.
Thanks in advance!

A. It is not illegal. If it is a month to month lease he can change it every month if he wants to.
Good luck to you.

Is there an inexpensive pool heater on the market?
Q. I am renting a house with a pool and would like to purchase a heater for it. Since we are renting and will only be here for a year, I don't want to break the bank. Are there any alternatives to the traditional expensive pool heaters on the market? At most, I would only like to spend a few hundred dollars. Thanks in advance...
A. I've heard that you can get hoola hoops and put black trash bags over them to warm a pool up, guess it would depend on the size. Try a pool store for one you can rent for the summer or look for a used one
Has anyone ever done carpet stretching themselves (not with a carpet installer)?
Q. We're getting ready to put our house on the market and our hallway has about 4 buckles in the carpet. We had though about renting a carpet stretcher from home depot but aren't sure we can do it ourselves. How hard is it to do? The thing is, in the hallway we have about 4 room entryways that we would have to work with when trying to stretch it and when you stretch it where do you go with the excess carpet? Is there any good website that tells how to do it?
A. check out http://diynetwork.com
they do the DIY cable tv shows, they have information on how to strech carpet and many other things you should do (for cheap) when your putting your house on the market

Can we refinance our house if we are renting in a different state?
Q. We own a house in Indiana. Because of job change, we have just relocated to another state. We are currently renting. The house in Indiana is on the market for sale. We are wondering if we can refinance the house to take advantage of the low interest rate. Can we still consider the house as our main residence? Any inputs will be highly appreciated.
A. No lender will refinance a house that is currently up for sale.
Also, the refi interest rate on a non-owner occupied house in going to be a much high rate than if you still lived there. The time to refi was before you moved.
