Is it legal to use taskrabbit or hire a plumber to fix an issue without my landlords knowledge if I feel that my landlord is being slow about addressing an issue like possible mold from a leak? Honestly at this point I have the $ and would prefer to just pay myself and get it over with than wait. Any consequences for me if they found out I did this?

How long ago did you ask them to fix the issue? If it has been more than 7 days, then I would hire someone to fix and deduct from your next rent payment. But first check with your local rental laws to ensure this is okay (in most states it would be)

*this is not legal advice

I feel left out in my firm. How do I make 'friends' with my colleagues? I've been here for a year.

It is an important trait to have in this job and I just don't know how to do this. It makes me very upset - I even sought therapy but wasn't useful. I can't spend 14 hours each day feeling like this:(

My father took a home loan, and the same home is kept as mortgage.

I googled a lot how to transfer it but neither gift deed nor sale deed would work as the property is on mortgage that's under bank's ownership (until loan is fulfilled).
Tax is also getting deducted, I'm paying hefty emis.
What can I do?
Please advise 🙂
