I figure it's legal since all the contract says is we can't move the house, and we aren't, the house itself will remain where it is, just with nothing in it, and then the bank gets screwed for their agent mortgage scam

Lawyers of diy send me your energy, don't you want the lulz of fucking over a major bank?

>> No.1929179

>>1929173
Its not legal because you are leaving the "house" in an unlivable state.
The bank would get a court judgement against you for willful damage equal to the cost of returning the house to a livable state.

>> No.1929183

>>1929179
Source? Considering I've never seen a livable foreclosed house, you're talking shit, the bank doesn't own OPs home, they simply receive it because of default, if what you're saying was true, literally every single foreclosure would end up in a lawsuit from the bank

Won't be worth much to do that. You're not very thoughtful and what's worse, have a silly, fanciful bent. (Silliness is not a wise lifestyle which is why you're fucked now. Shoot your inner child in the face along with everyone who suggests otherwise.)
Stick a cheap trailer on some cheap land (AFTER thorough research including getting a plat map for anything you consider). There's a reason it's the popular solution. That buys time to make your next move. Learn to renovate, build a workshop before building anything else. (Shipping containers make great workshops. I love mine and will buy more than my current four.) Workshop complete, you can build a wide selection of options if you live in agricultural zoned area.
Rather than mentally commit to a particular method of construction, study what's optimal for your situation. Having a few acres to play with means you can build small test structures.
Expect to do hundreds of hours of research. You have a computer and all your leisure time should be spent productively as that's at least as much fun as frivolity.

If you ever experience SELF-inflicted hardship it's your choices that got you there. My houses are paid for because I DIYed fiercely since I was a teenager, made damn sure every skill Iearned and job I held was complementary and made me more capable, and never got deep into debt because that's how fools become and remain poor. Your entire life should be relentless systematic inexorable drive to improve your situation for the time when age and/or ill health puts you out of action. DIY mastery was once expected as part of being a man and still is in farm country. The insane amount of money it saves you is a lifelong financial multiplier for the money you earn at your (also carefully planned for resilience against inevitable recession, depression, and disasters) career or careers. Everything must work together but if you man up and revel in that challenge it's huge fun.

>I really wanted that big home to start a family

You were a fool because you chose to want unwisely despite ample evidence you don't need a large home to fuck and make crotchfruit. You can do that in a single wide trailer like tens of millions before you. It's far more important to be a good parent. You got suckered because you WANTED to be suckered when cold analytical planning could have gotten you a sustainable path.

Union jobs were fought for against murdering Pinkertons and corrupt cops, and are the reason all jobs suck less than they did before organized labor. The general end of collective bargaining and switch to the brainwashed bucket-of-crabs mentality is why wages are stagnant over decades. Unions realize life is a savage shithole and just as the bosses have no moral obligation to workers, workers have no moral obligation to bosses, only what is set out in law. Business is not moral or immoral, just amoral like any other jungle.

I was only briefly AFL/CIO as a maintenance tech. The rest has been a fun mix of Air Force (wose benefits had to compete with organized labor), industrial maintenance, car/truck/motorcycle mechanics and workforce training (it's fun making my replacements). No decent mechanic doesn't have more work than they could do in two lifetimes. Even moreso for paint and body techs but I lack artistic talent for that. Meanwhile the "suits" who looked down on tradies tend to get slaughtered in recessions or outsourced even in good (for the stock market anyway) times. If they can work from home their replacements can work from India or the Philippines. There's actually a modest shortage of machinists (the veterans retired after the 2008 recession) and other skilled trades because onsite work is considered beneath the (vanishing) middle class. Guidance counselors with tranny studies degrees point students to saturated fields where they wonder why they can't get hired (see the many laments in /g) not understanding employers can cherrypick.

What you could do is start a part time home based business and allocate a considerable amount of the house to that business. So say for example you have 1/3 of the house dedicated to the business alone. This makes 1/3 of your housing expenses (mortgage included) now tax deductible. So say if you're paying 15k per year in housing expenses, 5k of that now counts as a tax deduction. Consider a DBA or sole proprietorship (make sure you're not being too risky thought). It comes out in the wash. Gl

Do you figure it's legal?

Really? Like, you REALLY figure it's legal?

Huh, that's funny because if that's the case why don't you just call up the Bank and notify them of what you'll be doing, and see what they say?

I mean, it's legal right? It's completely within your power! You are ABSOLUTELY entitled to do this, considering it's LEGAL and all. I'm sure they will have no issues and tell you to go right ahead with your completely legal course of action!

It's simple. Just notify that bank of yours of your future legal actions, they will give you the green light. Easy!

According to Illinois and various federal laws, OP was provided and signed multiple types of simple documents that clearly presented what and how he was going to pay.
When he says they made a 69K house into a 144K house, he presumably means that 144K is the total he will have paid including interest by the time the mortgage is done.

There's no way they can "trick" you into an extra 70K without breaking a boatload of laws that no real estate agent or attorney would want to poke with a stick.
The costs that he was going to pay were not hidden in the "fine print" of a 400+ page document. They were clearly gone over with him as he signed and initialed page after page of disclosure, acknowledgement, receipt of info, etc etc etc.

Be honest OP. You got into a house that wasn't a great deal because you felt that it was the right thing to do at the time and you're coping as best you can in a largely competitive and nasty economic arena.

There is absolutely legal precedent about stripping the house down of flooring, piping, toilets etc to spite the bank. The concept here is that he agreed to return the house if he doesn't pay the loan. People have done this before where (for example) they agree to sell a piece of land, but then strip and harvest all the trees after the contract is signed but before the transaction is complete.
People have done it with houses. And while it's true that the bank almost certainly won't come after you for this-- it's normally the insurance company that does that.

In other words, the bank files a claim with the homeowners insurance (that you are required to carry in order to get most mortgages) and then the insurance company can and will come after you. OP is not the first faggot to think of this scheme.

The distinction between what you are and are not allowed to remove from the house is normally more or less what would fall out if you could turn the house upside down and shake it.. so windows and doors are part of the house

>> No.1934106

>>1934104
soapbox diatribe continues:

Windows, doors, toilets, countertops, flooring, wiring, and pipe are all literally a part of the property itself. They're not going to flip their shit if the carpets are dirty and the house has tons of regular or even heavy damage from negligence and stupidity. They won't sue you for a lightswitch cover being missing. But strip all the wire and pipe and spray paint dicks everywhere and it's going to be a very open and shut case where they wind up with a judgement against you.

I hope you don't have any attachable assets or bank accounts or income OP.

Move on with your life and try to be happy OP. Fortunately for you, real estate prices have been soaring nearly nationwide for years now so unless you really shat the bed, you should make a tidy profit by just selling the house and leaving.

They did break the law, it's called an agent scam, I've already spoken to a lawyer about it and I can sue them, it'll just cost a bunch in legal fees

Stripping land after signing is not precedent, the deed is in my partner's name, no contract will be breached, there's no fraud because it is not in breach of the contract signed by the bank, we are within our rights, this is not "mid contract"

A mortgage is a secured loan, which means while secured by an asset, said asset belongs to us until such time as the bank foreclosed that asset, everyone saying "it actually belongs to the bank" is retarded

Nope, when transferred to my bank the property will be stripped, therefore insurance cannot collect, as I have not damaged the banks property
