lopburi3 Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I would highly advise wife have a male, preferably with a collage degree if not a lawyer, accompany her. Unless they have strong reasons for making the value of the land much higher than she paid there does sound as if something is amiss. Although the payment has increased from the .5% or so that was being charged after the meltdown it should sill be close to the 5% mark I believe. No way 30%. Or have you already improved it with a house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
