So BM gave less than a 30 day notice to say that they were moving. Didn't really say buying but insinuated it none the less. So house was easy to find online. Old rental they are currently in is for sale. Showed pics of the inside and all. What is to be new address BM provided is listed for sale "short sale" and shows and active listing. This is all just last week. Today after speaking to some friends in the mortgage industry I decided to peek around again. Backstory: BM said that they owned the house they are currently in = lie. BM said that they are moving into new address on the 29th of this month. So I called the listing agent for new address and he says that it is active and no pending sale/contract. So looked up old address again. Pictures are gone and a new update is there stating that it would be a perfect house for an investor because renters already in place and would love to stay. WHAT?? So okay....I don't know anything about short sales. Would they have a house still listed and say that there is not a contract if they really have one that is scheduled to allow a move in date for 19 days from today's date? Why also would the listing agent for current house say that they would be eager to stay? Oh, I know!!! More BM Bull@(*&!! And we have court in just weeks. Do you think all this would be petty to bring up in court? The fact that once again she is lying and doesn't really know what in the world she is doing. Guess if we can prove that she isn't moving on the 29th that would prove that she is intentially trying to schedule SD's tonsilectomy to interrupt DH time which we all know is the real truth here. Well, maybe some truth. Looks like the landlord is selling the house no matter what they want. If they were in a position to buy why wouldn't they just buy the house they are in now which is cheaper than the one on the "short sale" anyway?!

A short sale simply means a sale of real estate in which the proceeds from the sale fall short of the balance owed on a loan secured by the property sold, and is usually done to prevent foreclosure by the owner, and must be approved by the mortgage company. It has nothing to do with how fast someone can move in or out. She is probably saying she is moving since the landlord is selling it, just in case its not an investor that buys it because the new owner may not let them stay. Don't know why she would have given you the address to a house she is not in a contract with to buy, that doesn't make sense. Unless its just wishful thinking and she's getting ahead of herself. She might not even qualify to buy and therefore can't buy the house she's currently renting. Call her out and see what she says. She could always make up something in court about the new address she gave you not going through and then it may look petty that you brought it up.
