Q. There is some mice problem in my rented house. My landlord doesn't respond to my calls. Can this mice problem be reported to the city housing department for their inspection? I am living in Baltimore, Maryland, US. Thanks!
A. Stop feeding the mice. The housing department will only care if this is their house, are you renting from the government?

How do you find out if a rented house is in foreclosure?
Q. I live in Orlando, Fl. Im going to be looking for a house to rent in the next two months, but I have heard and read alot about people renting houses only to find out those houses have been foreclosed on and coincidentally being kicked out without their deposits. Where and how can I find out if a house being advertised is in foreclosure procedings.
A. Where I live you can go to the sheriff's web site and it will tell you what is coming up for sale. Call the local police and ask them how you could find out. I would bet that there is a way that is free to do.
What happens if you fail the credit check when going through an estate agent for a rented house?
Q. We rent off an estate agent and have done for 2 yrs now. We have never missed a payment of rent. However since moving into this property we have incurred some debt through my husband being made redundant twice, having a baby and a few other things happening, so now we have a bad credit rating. We may have to move soon due to the house sinking and we are very worried about being able to rent again. I know that when you go for a rented house you have to be credit checked and if you fail this does that mean the estate agent will not consider you or is it just a case of a getting a garantor? Please help...very worried bout this as we have a little baby and have no where to go.
A. Your best bet will be to stay on good terms with your current landlord. He/she will most likely be the first person that the "new landlord" will call for information. Make sure that you give them plenty of notice that you're moving... keep them on your good side because proof that you can make payments on time may be more powerful than a number that says you can't.
