Please, lets keep the government limited, and not limit the free choices we have as consumers!

It is a very time consuming process -- not to mention expensive if you have to pay interest payments along the way.Give it some good thought.

For the time consuming stuff that I don't like, painting, yardwork, cleaning, plus an extra pair of hands, I hire casual labor.

I am able to pull most of it for free from the county website, but it means that I have to manually search through the sales data to make sure that properties are in the same area (easily determined) and to make sure that they are similar types of properties (easy, but very time consuming!).

I think another name for the report I have heard is a consumer package.Hope this helps.

With a decade of experience in commercial and consumer lending I have been appointed by the San Jose Investment Corporation of America as Managing Partner for the Greater Charleston/Coastal Low Country area of South Carolina.It is my pleasure to be able to locally assist real estate investors secure their short-term purchase/Rehab/Fix 'n Flip and even new construction loans.

I think the lenders are just trying to screw consumers with another way to drive them into bankruptcy.

I say this because you can get much more done that way than just trying to block off time to read a book, which is more time-consuming and audio is something that you can do passively, while driving and working out, or whatever.
