The real esate commission is putting pressure on brokers to not participate in double closes without full disclosure of the source of funding.We're down to just two title companies that will handle a double close.

Peddling every day information as "secrets" in a high pressure sales pitch designed to separate large amounts of money from ignorant newbies is not something I can envision Tim doing.

My agent seems to be pressuring me to stick w/ the original closing date.

If you have metal outlet boxes it's possible you could have a ground wire connection that is not readily visible that creates a ground to the box and in turn the mounting screw for the outlet could create an adequate ground to the outlet producing the "correct" reading on your tester.

RealtyTrac tracked foreclosure-related filings on 2.3 million U.S. properties in 2008, an 87 percent jump from the year before, with 861,664 homes making it through the entire process to become REOs.The Mortgage Bankers Association's surveys of members suggest one out of 10 mortgages was either delinquent or in the foreclosure process at the end of September, and Moody's Economy.com estimates 12 million homeowners are "upside down" -- they owe more on their homes than their properties would fetch in today's market.RealtyTrac senior vice president Rick Sharga told attendees at the Inman News Real Estate Connect conference in New York City this month that an analysis of 500,000 distressed properties in four states in the company's database found only about one in four were listed for sale in a multiple listing service, or MLS.That suggests that as many as 75 percent of distressed properties have yet to hit the market, Sharga said, and that many of those homes will soon be putting pressure on inventory and prices as banks repossess them and put them up for sale. . . .
