Rental agreement
My landlord has advised me that they are selling my half of their duplex and theirs as a ”condo”. I was given a time frame of 2 days to make a decision to buy the unit as a condo. When I asked for the information regarding the set up of the condo I was then told that it was too bad that it wasn’t the right time for me to buy a condo. I went to the Registry of Deeds in Worcester and Shrewsbury MA only to find that the property is still registered as a two family dwelling and that the listing on the MSL has a disclosure stating that it is a condo and all sales are based on the upcoming conversion of the two family dwelling to a condo. My lease is up in April and now my landlord who has been collecting rent with a satelite dish tv system included in my rent for the last two years has now demanded the return of the satelite dish and have amended my lease stating the fact that I will return the receiver,smart card and remote by the 31st of January and that they have adjusted my rent accordingly to reflect the payment for the dish. Is this not a issue where my landlords have broken their own lease because it suited them.

Reneging on sale of car
I recently moved overseas, and
advertised my car in Somerville, MA
for sale on a website. A trusted friend
handled the inspection. By email I
agreed to sell the car to a CT lawyer
for $8800. He emailed me a bill of
sale, and I signed it and sent him a
pdf of it, Fedexing the original to my
friend who was going to attend the
handover of title, which I signed but
did not fill in. My trusted friend in
Somerville was to put the buyer’s
name on the Title at a handover
meeting. The buyer even emailed me
a bank check with my name on it for
the $8800 agreed price. The buyer
has not yet picked up the car.
Meanwhile, while this is being
organized, I suddenly got a
trustworthy, much greater, offer for
the car. I emailed the CT lawyer and
explained, and said I wanted to
accept the higher offer if he can’t
match it. I offered him $100 as a
courtesy.
He said no, that he believes that the
transaction makes the car his at
$8800, and he wants to pick it up
and get the Title.
What do you think? Am I forced to
give the car over to the lawyer, or
can I legally renege because I have
the title and he does not have the
original signed Bill of Sale?
Thank you.

If I sold my car to a person and have a bill of sale am I liable if that person gets in an accident if they don’t register it after the sale. How does the state know the car has been sold and has changed hands to another?
Vehicle sold ”as is”.
Vehicle sold ”as is”. ?
I sold a 6 cyl. van to someone. They test drove it twice and then paid for it, after I told them to make sure it was what they wanted before I got the title. they picked it up later that day. I had paid off the loan and signed the title over to them. They left with title and bill of sale, sold ”as is”. Several hours later they came to the door saying that the engine they thought the engine was too small to pull thier boat. They said they would be back tommorow and if it wasn’t what they thought it was theywanted to go back on the deal. Can they do this, I have already purchased a new vehicle?
