Can you pay with houses or hotels or do they remain with you forever?

From the Monopoly Deal FAQ (scroll down to near the end):

Q - WHICH CARDS CAN I USE TO PAY OTHER PLAYERS? (E.G. FOR RENT, BIRTHDAYS ETC.)

A - You can choose to pay:

* from your Bank (with money or Action cards that you've Banked as money),
* with Property cards, or
* with a combination of both.

Remember, you can only pay with cards that are on the table in front of you, never with cards from your hand.

You cannot pay with Houses or Hotels you have on properties because they are not in your bank nor are they Property cards themselves. If you had Banked them, you could use them to pay for things.

You can pay with ANYTHING (property or from the bank) But not from your hand.

I don't have much reputation, but if I did, I would put a down vote and I will when I get 125 reputation if unless you put something unique in your answer. – Daniel Palamarchuk Jan 1 at 18:33

The rules say that you absolutely cannot play cards from your HAND. The link http://monopoly.wikia.com/wiki/Monopoly_Deal_Rules says that you cannot play cards from your hand. You can put hotels and houses into your bank though...
