This is presumably what P NW and Mike OH are referring to.I think we will need to substantially reduce the role of government and cut taxes in order to make the economy competitive enough to once again grow at a rapid pace.

Hi Michael, I agree with James, I just ask because each short sale is highly influenced by its location and lender (esp if there are two different mortgages).

If that's not the case, please substantiate your lies.

I lost a substantial amount of money on the deal (closed in 2009).My business is set up as an LLC.

This is what keeps the individual protected from the financial influence and power of large corporations - they are both private entities where disputes are refereed by the government.

I'll let the requests for colleague, # of followers and influence points speak for itself.

Giving money to a political campaign is not a charity, and become an issue of buying influence at some point.And, IMO, giving on your number two and three is not giving back, nor is it a donation as it's clearly done in anticipation of a reward and actually against the law if a deduction is taken (I'll let Charles Perkins address that if he likes of sees this).That reminds me of a time I was in a car dealership buying a new car and there was a minsiter who was talking about a purchase as well.

I`ll post that on the "existing thread" ps. did i just lose half my influence on my 1st post?

The smaller the area the more influence an influx of investment will make.

Good points Jesse, but due diligence to me is property specific and Charles was including generalized areas that certainly influence a buy decission, but, to me are issues that are considered as a business consideration.
