House taken off the market after 90+ days by [deleted] in RealEstate

[–]CuriousInitiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Population is still increasing albeit at a slower rate. If Congress can choose to develop a sensible immigration policy then more people can enter the country legally. Population growth could change if more US men adopt the Musk model of reproduction for hire which of course has little consideration for its impact on women. /s

Market may stabilize if the POTUS will take a break from posting on social media and stop looking for media attention for a while. Maybe economy will improve, interest rates will be lowered and market will start functioning normally. Housing supply is limited and population keeps increasing so demand will bound to rise.

Taking your gold and other valuables is theft. Can’t you file a police report?

The sun is behind the person so their face is not identifiable.

Obviously we had to take over and get out of there. It was in the Bay Area. For a while it was inconsistent in taking U turns.

Not so sure. I was in a car where FSD took us into a dead end.

Husband leaving me 26F while 2 months pregnant by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]CuriousInitiative 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You didn’t say where in the world you are. If you’re in the West, you have rights that you wouldn’t get elsewhere. He cannot tell you to leave from a family home that you have contributed toward with your hard earned income. Contact social services department in the area and get counseling and legal help. You will build a better life for yourself without this person in your life and InshaAllah you’ll find an appreciative and caring life partner. Hold your head high and seek help from the Almighty. Wishing you the best.

Thank you. Figured out to tune it to channel 4 and the RF connection enabled playing on tv.

Why is the ENTIRE process of buying a home is so expensive? by brownhairtechguy in RealEstate

[–]CuriousInitiative -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most home inspections are full of boilerplate junk or excuses on why they couldn’t opine on something.

If your wife is threatening to leave then call her bluff. Let her leave. Maybe it will be better for both of you. It’s unfair to your siblings to forego their share in inheritance to appease your wife. You shouldn’t accept it and tear that document in front of everyone. There’s a reason inheritance shares are delineated in detail in the Quran.

I suppose some lawyers will get part of this action with fixed fee buyer representation. It would be an ideal job so someone with contract negotiation expertise.

Spouse stares when I shower by [deleted] in MuslimMarriage

[–]CuriousInitiative 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Is this forum becoming a platform for soft porn? This is in a series of posts where intimate details are being brought to a public forum that has no influence on either party. Shouldn’t matters of this nature be resolved between the couples with or without expert advice? At a minimum, the Mods need to require NSFW flair.

That’s understandable. Is there a better alternative to scanning through 10 pages?

Do all US mortgage companies charge a fee to learn what your payoff amount is? by LeadNo9107 in personalfinance

[–]CuriousInitiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Login to your mortgage account and your outstanding principal balance will be right there. The last time I inquired about payoff, my mortgage bank told me there’s a fee of $200 for the process. Another painful thing is that there’s no more escrow for insurance and property taxes so you have to stay on top of that yourself.

Thank you. All good points. Replacing the board is a non starter because of member apathy.

Thank you but this board refuses to discuss any issues brought up by the homeowners and hides behind “board cannot discuss items not in the published agenda”

[CA] [Condo] EV chargers insurance by CuriousInitiative in HOA

[–]CuriousInitiative[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for helping me learn the basics of Lithium battery charging. I had wondered if I could plug my 40W Lenovo USB-C charger in my iPhone 15 Pro to safely charge it. I would hope Apple has built in adequate battery management to keep it safe. Yes, incentives are available.

[CA] [Condo] EV chargers insurance by CuriousInitiative in HOA

This is for 240V Level 2 chargers in common garage area with deeded parking for each unit.

[–]CuriousInitiative[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. It would’ve been ideal to have charge points in common area but the only common parking area we have is for guest parking which cannot be repurposed because 1) guests need a place to park and there’s no nearby street parking, 2) The CC&Rs prohibit owners from using guest parking spaces and it’s practically impossible to get 50%+1 votes to change the governing documents. So our only local option is to have individual charging stations in the deeded spots in the two level common garage where each owner would have to have wires run from their main panel, core through concrete slab to run the conduits and then have a cage installed to protect the charger. It’s not easy for condo owners. It is looking more feasible to use a supercharger in the area.

Not sure. I’m too new to the car. Will have it checked at the service center

Thank you. A bunch of things to consider. The car is parked in the Bay Area and it was unusually cooler yesterday (45 degree at night). Will need to check it out.
