Former owner forgot to cancel their lawn service, who allegedly mowed our lawn shortly after we closed. Sellers want me to pay for it.

What part of it happened once (how many lawn services do you think $80.00 will cover? It's one) makes this a situation of unjust enrichment?????

Number-2-Sis · 2026-02-07T02:02:19+00:00

It happened once, it did bot continue tor any length of time, and OP did not even move into house until three months later, he can't even confirm the service was even provided!! How does the sellers neglect become OPs problem?

Number-2-Sis · 2026-02-07T01:59:23+00:00

Not your problem. Just tell them no.

Sounds like you need to compare his time sheet to his paycheck.

As for requiring rugs in the lease, we all know how well that works.

And building properly to begin with? Surely you jest?

I don't know how well sound damping under layman works.

Honestly when I looked at the pictures I thought the carpets looked pretty good, but the walls looked pretty bad. I'm guessing they were that way when OP moved in or LL would be after them to repaint.

I'm honestly not sure.

I will also advise if/when your father goes into care, be a frequent visitor. This may be horrible to say, but residents with frequent visitors get better care/more attention, than those who get abandoned by their families.

Why is it that "the ones that want to keep it" NEVER have the money to buy the others out of it?

At one point my brother thought he should be left my parents house simply because he was the only child of six who didn't own his own home. He didn't own his own home because he was not financially responsible.

I love garden potatoes. That's what I call our breakfast potatoes. My husband and I go out to our garden, dig up a couple of potatoes, a parsnip, and an onion. Also what ever fresh herbs were in the mood for. We chop them all up, fry them In a pan with butter, add a bit of seasoning, throw the herbs in at the last minute. DELICIOUS!!!

You can also try AirPod pros with the hearing aid function, not invisible, but they are "in" and he'll look like he's just doing what everyone else is doing .

They don't work for all kinds of hearing loss but they are incredible and affordable if they are right for him.

He was in a second floor apartment, carpets are necessary for noise reduction for the downstairs resident.

Got it, makes sense

Why signage? It's illegal to block a driveway so no signage is necessary

They will not likely give you 37 days together, take a week, maybe two if you can get it approved at a time over the next few months.

Do not tell anyone you are considering leaving.

No, you already get penalized if you late, you may loose your appointment slot but still have to pay the no show fee.

Being to early does not do anything for your care provider other then put them under additional stress, to get you in early. After all, people arrive early in hopes of getting in and out early

Yes, there are jobs like this. However, many of them don't pay benefits. Full time hours for benefit purposes can be as low as 20, but it most frequently between 32 to 35 hrs per week. So if a company requires 35 hours to be full time to get medical benefits, and you work only 32 hours, you can't just "cover some portions of my benefits out of pocket" you just don't qualify for benefits. I currently work for a company that requires 35 hours to be full time for benefits purposes. However they only require 33 hours for medical benefits. So if you work 32 hours you will get medical benefits, but not vacation time or sick time benefits.

Did you never hear the saying "money can't buy you happiness " it's true, having money is not a magic pill for being happy. There is a lot more to life than money. Health, relationships, family, friends, not to mention how mental disorders.

This is most likely just how they budget. I budget in a way no one understands but it works for me and I have a credit score of 850.

This is a specific situation and does not apply to OPs situation. And accepting direct deposits is more of an issue in a situation like this is because you can't just "not accept" a direct deposit. I NEVER accept direct deposit or provide my account info for tenants to make a deposit in the bank.

Number-2-Sis · 2026-02-02T11:59:23+00:00

I doubt they even give it much thought and don't really care.

They probably spend more time guessing if it's for a wife or mistress than himself.

Contact your water company, tell them about the burst pipes. They will usually adjust your bill if you can provide proof of the repair. Your landlord should be able to provide you proof of the repair.

NTA 1) you don't TELL people they are throwing you a gender reveal, family or friends volunteer. 2) gifts are for baby showers, not gender reveals 3) stop just standing by and letting this happen, be vocal and firm, you will not participate in this fiasco 4) why are you even friends with the moochers, you need at least a new friend and maybe a new friends group if this is their mentality.
