Voting Question: REAL ESTATE COMPANIES and bonds PLEASE HELP?
For instance I was thinking about Donald Trump since he keeps doing this with Real Estate and Hotels and this is like the third time his companies go broke and need restructuring anyway. So how difficult is it say and is it hypothetically possible for say someone to start a real estate company and issue 10 million in bonds to buy cheap real estate in Phoenix for example and have the bonds backed buy the real estate assets, and then make them hybrid securities so that at a point in time the bondholders become stockholders and the company has an IPO. It seems this system works well as Trump has done it before--the good news for his is that while he has to give a big portion of his company away he still gets to keep millions in stock, he is the CEO and the company haha pays him 2 million in a salary a year. Could a person like me do this? How does one startup a big Real Estate company like that and use investors money to buy it every? Are companies like Barclay JPMorgan helpful for this? Can someone explain every this to me? I receive the general ideas but I need someone to fill in the gaps for how this works.

Resolved Question: I need a way to have two phone numbers on one cell phone!?
I have a Salt Lake City, Utah real estate investment business and have a pretty big client base. I've also done a lot of advertising with my cell number that I've had for 5 years now. I just moved to Phoenix, Arizona to start up a similar business there. People in AZ don't want to work with someone with a Utah phone number. What I need is some place to port my Cell number in Verizon wireless that is cheap or free. so that I can receive a Phoenix number on my phone. That way both people from Utah and Arizona can reach me on a local number, but when I call, my cell will show my Phoenix number. Any suggestions?

Resolved Question: How to get my girlfriend's ex-boyfriend out of her house?
My girlfriend and I have been dating for just over 2 months now. She's in an ugly situation with her ex-boyfriend. A few years ago, she bought a home with him when they were dating, then later got a home equity loan; both of their names are on the loans. More than a year ago, she broke up with him, but he didn't leave. He's been sleeping inthe master bedroom while she's in another room; her 19-yr old daughter is in a 3rd bedroom. He has refused to make payments on the home equity loan, claiming that he's getting no benefit from the items purchased. Also, their agreement in the past had been that she paid the electric bill and he paid the water bill, but a few months ago, he stopped paying the water bill without telling her. Recently, the water was close off. My girlfriend didn't want to back down, so she had been living in the home with her daughter; they use pail water to flush the toilets, and shower at the gym. He now wants to foreclose on the home. She consulted with a real-estate lawyer who said that's what she should do: not make payments and keep the money to use when kicked out. She wants the water back on, and sent him an e-mail stating that she will let the home go into foreclosure (he won't agree to a quick claim) and wants him to pay to have the water back on. He didn't respond, so she's going to take him to tiny-claims court to try to recover the money he hasn't paid on the home-equity loan and the water turn-on fee. So far, he has not made any threats to her or her daughter. I know this is a bad situation, and would appreciate any advice any of you have on what she can do to receive him out. Thanks--Bill in Phoenix

Resolved Question: Should I move to Phoenix?
I am thinking on moving to Phoenix. Currently I live in the NW-Tacoma, WA area. I've heard a lot of different things, comments etc but not from anyone who actually lives there. If you do live in the area can you give me a quick rundown on what you think of the area. (Especially if you are from somehwere else). I adore the outdoors. I have a kayak, 3 dogs and will need to find a job. Is it the job market tough? I would need to make at minimum of $40,000 hopefully in the marketing field. I know the real estate was hit difficult out there... Is the rent expensive... It is difficult to tell on Craigslist because pictures can be deceiving. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks to anyone who answers.

Resolved Question: What is a better place to live, Phoenix Arizona or Albuquerque New Mexico?(experience with both cities please)?
Im a 22 year old male, and me and my gf are planning to move around September from Missouri. We are thinking Phoenix sounds like its everything we want, year round warmth, no snow, not windy (like the midwest). We also want a place with little crime, and is people friendly, so we were looking around Paradise Valley or Fountain Hills for an apartment or condo to rent. Recently I have been hearing a lot about how good Albuquerque New Mexico is. I have looked into it quite a bit, but I am unsure which city would be a better fit. We don't really have the money to visit both before the move (we would just visit the one we decide on). We would both be needing jobs (I am looking into starting Real Estate school, and she is going to be doing beauty school). Which city would offer overall better fit for us considering the weather, jobs, little crime, schools, scenery, and availabilty to rent such as condo and apartment complexes.

Resolved Question: Can you help John McBoo remember? How Many homes do You OwN?
On the real estate front, possession is nine tenths of the law. The score is McCain 8, Obama 1. This Bud's for you!! look Politifact's count of the McCains' eight homes: "1. The largest home is a creekside ranch close Sedona, Ariz., spread over more than six acres. That's where McCain entertained vice presidential prospects, including Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, over Memorial Day weekend. Records from Yavapai County Assessor's Office show it includes three houses and is worth about $1.1-million. CNN reported that McCain said there are six houses on the property. The owner is listed as the Cindy Hensley McCain Family Trust. If McCain is correct that there are six houses on the property and you counted each one, the total homes owned would rise to 13 (though again, when pressed by Politico about properties, McCain said he wasn't sure). "2. and 3. In nearby Phoenix, Cindy McCain owns two combined condo units worth about $1.7-million. They're part of the Residences at 2211 Camelback, which bills itself as "The Valley of the Sun's finest example of life beyond the expected" at "the most preferred urban residential address in the prestigious Camelback Corridor." Wild River Rental LLC, which records show is controlled by Cindy McCain, owns another unit in the building, which was purchased in 2007 for $830,000. (This is the unit we missed in our first go round.) "4. In Arlington, Va., the McCains live in a three-bedroom high-rise condo worth $847,800, property records show. "5. They also possess a condo in La Jolla, Calif., that's worth more than $1-million. The building overlooks a park and the Pacific Ocean. Records also link the McCains to three other residences. "6. Wild River Rental LLC, the company controlled by Cindy McCain, is listed as the owner of Phoenix condo worth more than half a million dollars. The McCains bought the condo for their daughter Meghan, according to a story in GQ magazine and confirmed through a public records search. The reporter compared the inside to "a spaceship furnished by West Elm. There's a giant silver chimney that extends out of her fireplace into the ceiling about twenty feet over." "7. and 8. Dream Catcher Family LLC, a domestic corporation formed by the McCain family, owns two condos in a beachfront complex in Coronado, Calif. Tax records show one is valued at $2.7-million. The other was purchased this year, according to sales records. A sales price was not available.''

Resolved Question: Will the current crisis bring back the Savings and Loan scandal for McCain?
The last big government bail out that was a catastrophic was the SanL. Charles Keating used money from his Savings and Loan to basically finance huge expenditures. When it was on the brink of collapse, Senators met to try and help Keating. McCain was one of the Keating 5 Senators that met. He was a personal pal of Keating and they both lived in Phoenix. The Government had to bail things out and sold the assets in a huge flame sale type situation. It also affected the real estate market. Now once again, we are facing this crisis and once again. This time the very financial markets and Real estate are a very big contributor to his bundling contributions. Do you think this will spill over?

Voting Question: I have an Arizona real estate salesperson license, what are the requirements for a Texas real estate license?
I work for a commercial real estate company in Phoenix and will be moving to Houston in a couple of months. My current position (and future position) does not require that I have a real estate license to be able to perform any of my job functions. I am not involved in real estate sales in any shape, however being licensed is beneficial in my field. Since I am currently a licensee in Arizona, I assume I will only have to take credits and courses to cover Texas-specific real estate laws and practices, can anyone confirm this? If not, any information about the Texas licensing process would be helpful.

Voting Question: Good lender that understands real estate investing.?
I am starting to look for an investment property in Phoenix or Tucson. I am after solid property with instant positive cash flow, should not be too difficult to find these days. I tried to contact several of my "old" lenders who either lent funds to me or expressed interest in my deals in the past. Now when I tried to contact them they don't respond at every. I now live overseas, but have US based income as well as plenty of equity in Arizona real estate. It's almost as if lending business went dead. The point is that I am looking for a lender or mortgage broker that a) understands real estate investing b) still provides low doc loans. I am self-employed, decent income (both US and abroad), excellent credit score, never had a credit blemish on my report. Plenty of equity in real property (land). No debt. US citizen. Experienced in real estate investing. If you know a good contact that can work with me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks a lot in advance!

Resolved Question: Mayors Sound Alarm Over Drop in City Revenues where is all those billions in Hispanic buying power at?
WASHINGTON -- Mayors from four U.S. cities said they are facing a once-in-a-generation fiscal crisis and that federal stimulus funds have, so far, been largely unhelpful in helping them balance budgets hit by steep drops in nearly every source of municipal revenue. The comments, from mayors of Philadelphia, San Jose, Calif; Mesa, Ariz., and Bowling Green, Ky., at a panel discussion sponsored by the Brookings Institution and the National League of Cities, underscore how the recession for local government is far from over. Mesa's mayor, Scott Smith, said the steep drops in sales-tax revenue, the city's primary source of money, are "changing our reality." "We treat this financial crisis as something we're not going to receive out of," said Mr. Smith, whose city has about 500,000 citizens and is in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Even as economists declare the recession over, local revenues continue to fall. That's because the lion's share of their receipts -- sales, income and property taxes -- are connected to the job market and real-estate prices. Jobs and real-estate prices are expected to lag the broader economic recovery, reducing city revenues for months or years after the technical end of the recession. "This is unknown for our generation," said Chris Hoene, director of the middle for research and innovation at the National League of Cities. Mr. Hoene said it was likely to be 18 to 24 months before local government revenues resume growing. The mayors said deep budget gaps have forced them to make cuts to basic services including police and flame protection, that the financial crisis has turned cities and states against each other and that fiscal strains emphasize the need for money-saving changes to pension and health benefits in the heavily unionized public sector. "Change has to arrive and this moment of crisis is going to force it," said Michael Nutter, mayor of Philadelphia. While federal stimulus funds have helped states close budget gaps and preserved jobs for many state and school-board employees, the mayors said federal money hasn't done much to ease their day-to-day budget problems. "The stimulus is going to special things," said Chuck Reed, mayor of San Jose. Beyond budget and services cuts, the mayors discussed new ways to lift revenue at a time when incomes are stagnant and the national unemployment rate is at 10.2%. Philadelphia, for instance, has temporarily increased its sales tax while Mesa has levied a property tax for the first time. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB125866320178356259.html

Resolved Question: Why Does the Mainstream Media Choose To Forget It's Own Reporting (McCain-Keating 5-Savings & Loan SCANDAL)?
The Banker Charles H. Keating Jr. figures in the home Banking Committee's investigation of Lincoln Savings and Loan Association of Irvine, Calif., and a related inquiry into five Senators who intervened on its behalf with Federal regulators. The Banker Charles H. Keating Jr., Phoenix millionaire worked as chairman of a home construction company, American Continental Corp., purchased Lincoln in February 1984 for $51 million and increased its assets from $1.1 billion to $5.5 billion by 1988. Waged five-year campaign against Federal regulators who opposed his direct investment of federally insured savings and loan deposits in real estate ventures. In 1986 and 1987, gave $1.3 million in gifts and contributions to five senators. They later intervened on Lincoln's behalf with officials of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board. Lincoln was seized by the board las April; regulastors have filed a $1.1 billion fraud and racketeering suit against him. John McCain, Republican of Arizona.

Resolved Question: What do you think Latinos flee Arizona's new laws?
THE west side of Phoenix, Arizona, is lined with the same monotonous range of petrol stations, quick-food shops, pharmacies and clothes stores that you'll find in any modern city in America's heartland. Look closer, though, and a disturbing pattern emerges. Here is a real estate office that is empty, here a panaderia - a bread store - that has closed. A Mexican restaurant still has its sign boasting ''Tacos Since 1975'', but no tacos are made here any more. A note in the entrance of one restaurant says ''Se cierra el negocio porque nos mudamos de estado'': the restaurant is closed because we've moved out of the state. As July 29 approaches, and with it the state's new immigration law, one of America's most dynamic metropolises is becoming a ghost town. http://www.theage.com.au/world/latinos-flee-arizonas-new-laws-20100719-10hty.html

Resolved Question: What are thoughts on this Sheriff Joe Arpaio scoffs at possibility of broader federal probe?
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio scoffs at the possibility that a federal civil rights and racial profiling investigation into his immigration raids and crime sweeps could be expanded into a broader look at his office’s use of power and finances. Arpaio said the U.S. Justice Department’s civil rights investigation is a politically motivated inquiry by the Barack Obama administration into his immigration enforcement tactics, and he has no indication yet whether investigators are or will be looking into any other matters, including finances. The difficult-nosed sheriff said the FBI and Justice Department will not find any financial irregularities within his office. “I have nothing to hide. Let them look,” said Arpaio, who acknowledged that such investigations can be drawn-out affairs. “They are just coming down here hoping to find something.” But some legal and public officials with familiarity of Justice Department and FBI inquiries into the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office say the federal investigation could be expanded. That includes investigators taking a closer look at financial management, contracting and vendor relationships, and how various pools of money are used by the MCSO, according to the officials and legal sources who asked not to be identified for fear of retribution. The MCSO’s $270 million budget includes jails and law enforcement. County budget cuts could result in MCSO having a $228 million annual budget for the next fiscal year, according to Maricopa County spokesman Richard de Uriarte. Federal investigators could examine MCSO’s vendor contracts; its equipment and vehicle purchases; how it uses federal grant money; the movement of pools of money within the office; and its overall financial management and use of county and federal money, according to a source familiar with the inquiry. Arpaio stressed he is not aware of any criminal or financial probe by the feds into the MCSO, and that the Obama administration does not like his receive-tough stances on immigration and law and order. Justice Department attorneys began looking into Arpaio’s crime and immigration sweeps in tardy 2008 and earlier this year confirmed a federal civil rights investigation of the sheriff’s immigration and criminal enforcement, said Justice spokesman Alejandro Miyar. Miyar said the MCSO inquiry started at the end of President George W. Bush’s second term, but the investigation has become more aggressive since Obama became president and Eric Holder took over as U.S. attorney general in January. Miyar would not comment specifically on the status of the Arpaio investigation, but said he was not aware of any expansion of the probe beyond the MCSO immigration and crime sweeps. Arpaio, 77, confirmed federal investigators had been to his office and were conducting interviews, but said those inquiries will not deter his arrests of illegal immigrants and raids of businesses that employ them. “You don’t look me stopping,” said the sheriff, who criticized the motivation and manner of the federal investigation. There are some calls from Arpaio critics for a comprehensive financial audit of MCSO, but de Uriarte said he was not aware of any immediate efforts by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to conduct an audit. The sheriff has been battling with the county board and other local officials over immigration issues, including spats with County Supervisor Mary Rose Wilcox and Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon. The MCSO said June 17 it was investigating restaurant lease deals between Wilcox and the city of Phoenix-owned Sky Harbor International Airport. Arpaio and Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas led an investigation that indicted Supervisor Don Stapley in December on charges of not disclosing business and real estate development deals on public financial disclosure forms. Stapley denies wrongdoing. Former Maricopa County Schools Superintendent Sandra Dowling also is suing the county and Arpaio over a 2006 SWAT-team raid of her Phoenix home. Dowling was indicted on numerous counts, including theft, but ended up pleading guilty only to the charge of improperly giving her daughter a job within the county school system. Arpaio’s office also has an investigation into Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard’s handling of the state prosecution of former Arizona Treasurer David Petersen. Goddard denies wrongdoing in that case. Arpaio, who was elected to a fifth term in November, said his political adversaries in Arizona are encouraging the Justice Department to go after him,,,,,,,,,,, http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stories/2009/06/15/daily60.html

I'm not considering schools like University of Phoenix or other online-only schools. I'd like to go back to school in the physical sense, but I have a family and the time constraints make it impossible. Can I expect to gain as much from an online program as I would on campus? I know a big part of the experience is the contacts you gain from your study groups, etc. - any input? Thanks

Resolved Question: There are those who despise Democrats because they are "Socialist"! Will U withdraw money if your bank fails?
"By MARCY GORDON, AP Business Writer Marcy Gordon, Ap Business Writer – 38 mins ago WASHINGTON – Real estate lender Colonial BancGroup Inc. has been close down by federal officials in the biggest U.S. bank failure this year. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., which was appointed receiver of the Montgomery, Ala.-based Colonial and its about $25 billion in assets, said the failed bank's 346 branches in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Nevada and Texas will reopen at the normal times starting on Saturday as offices of Winston-Salem, N.C.-based BB&T. The FDIC has approved the sale of Colonial's $20 billion in deposits and about $22 billion of its assets to BB&T Corp. Regulators also closed four other banks: Community Bank of Arizona, based in Phoenix; Union Bank, based in Gilbert, Ariz.; Community Bank of Nevada, based in Las Vegas; and Dwelling home Savings and Loan Association, located in Pittsburgh. The closures boosted to 77 the number of federally insured banks that have failed in 2009. The agency established a temporary government bank for Community Bank of Nevada to give depositors about 30 days to open accounts at other financial institutions. The failed bank had assets of $1.52 billion and deposits of $1.38 billion as of June 30. Community Bank of Arizona had assets of $158.5 million and deposits of $143.8 million as of June 30, while Union Bank had assets of $124 million and deposits of $112 million as of June 12. The FDIC said that MidFirst Bank, based in Oklahoma City, has agreed to assume every the deposits and $125.5 million of the assets of Community Bank of Arizona, as well as about $24 million of the deposits and $11 million of the assets of Union Bank. The FDIC will retain the relax for eventual sale." every of you have safe money if your bank fails thanks to Democrats and FDR! I suspect none of you will use this socialistic program to keep your money from mismanaged banks and leave it in the bank. Won't you? The FDIC is a "socialistic" program! Actually most receive socialism confused with this country's Mantra: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that every men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed" No where in the declaration does it mention corrupt business and their usurpers of the US Constitution who are our largest group receiving welfare and the largest welfare frauds! It says "The people" and business is not "the People"! No one I know is a socialist, however some programs perhaps could be considered that, like the FDIC. Of course NO Republican would ever pass such a thing, but they will every be lining up at banks tomorrow getting their money thanks to Democrats!

Resolved Question: Should I buy one House or two???
I live in Phoenix and I possess a condo which I am planning on renting out soon, so that I can buy a home. (Thank you housing market decline) My girlfriend lives with me and makes about the same income as I do. Question: Should we buy two houses instead of one? Judging by the way the real estate market is now, this is a great opportunity to buy homes. She could afford a place of her possess and so could I.... But we'd live in one and rent the other out. Would this make more sense? Then we'd possess a condo and two homes... rather then a condo and one home. Does this make sense to anyone? Anyone have any good reasons why this is a bonehead idea? I need input before I do this. Thanks!!!

Resolved Question: HELP!!! Landlord is a fraud?
My husband and I rented a home in Phoenix, Arizona on August the 1st of 2008. We just found out that our landlord, is not even the owner of the home. A real estate agency informed us that our supposed landlord, is actually the one that should be renting the home! Our supposed landlord had a one year contract to be renting the home throught the real estate agency. HELP WHAT CAN WE DO? Yes, we did sign a one year contract with our supposed landlord. We have a copy of every check we paid her for rent.
