I co-signed my daughter’s loan a few years back. Now, collectors have started calling me. Am I really 100% responsible for the debt?

You co-signed your daughter’s loan because you wanted to help her get ahead. Years later, your phone starts ringing with calls from debt collectors demanding payment. It can feel shocking, especially if you thought the loan was her responsibility.

My parents’ home was purchased sight unseen, but now the buyers are claiming it’s uninhabitable because my dad smoked inside. Who’s responsible?

My parents recently sold their longtime family home to buyers who purchased the property without ever setting foot inside. Everything seemed fine until the buyers discovered that my father had smoked cigarettes indoors for years, and now they're claiming the house is uninhabitable. They're demanding that my parents pay for extensive cleaning and repairs, but are my parents actually responsible for a problem the buyers never bothered to investigate?
