Contracts

I have sellers remorse over a car i sold . what can i do?

I cancelled a contract with a property management company because they had not rented my townhome for 9 months. This occurred during a phone conversation. Will a certified letter confirming the conversation be enough to render the contract (which runs until Nov., 2011) null and void?

I inherited my home from my deceased parents. I am sole owner. Can my husband sign a binding contract for roof repairs on the home without my permission? A company is threatening to put a lien on my home if I don't let them fix my roof. That company's credentials are highly questionable. I don't want to do business with them if I have a choice.

Owner of property dies caretaker is promised a portion of property verbally for paying taxes what rights does the caretaker have because it was a verbal contract.

We entered into a lease agreement under the assumption that the landlord was an honorable man. Prior to signing the lease we asked for the following to be done: A window with broken seal be replaced, first floor wood floors be refinished, fireplaces and chimney cleaned and inspected. He agreed and the list is an addendum to the lease. He has failed to perform any of these tasks. In fact I found a towel had been shoved in to the flue of one of the fireplaces, so I know it was not inspected. During the walk through we identified a window with rot along the sill, all the floors are scratched, the wood railings and decks outside have signs of wood rot, a bathroom had tile falling off and mold visible (he grudgingly is repairing this), and a toilet that kept running. I repaired the toilet. We agreed to a $200 repair for tenants, but that should only be for repairs after the start of the lease. He is trying to impose it for repairs he failed to make prior to the start of the lease. We do not have the funds to move again and should not have to pay to move because the landlord is unwillingly to perform the maintenance he agreed to or as in the lease is his responsibility as it was pre-existing. How do we get the lease enforced and the repairs made short of moving out? Thank you.
