It is also potentially discriminatory in nature as only the real estate broker and the seller would have knowledge that the property's for sale and could essentially discriminate for or against certain people/buyers.I am not an attorney or anything but from my understanding when a licensed real estate broker is involved in the sale of a property, they cannot promote that property until it has been listed on the MLS.  

If you were to see the space you would see that it really feels like part of the lower unit and I promoted it as such when advertising.

Should BP promote other background check companies on their site?  

Any country in the world promotes tax deferred or tax free things that you can do and it is up to you to talk with an Accountant who knows what they are and head that way if you want to be in that business, like affordable HUD housing.

Here is what Wikipedia has to say: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piercing_the_corporate_veilThis part is interesting: “Piercing the corporate veil typically is most effective with smaller privately held business entities (close corporations) in which the corporation has a small number of shareholders, limited assets, and recognition of separateness of the corporation from its shareholders would promote fraud or an inequitable result.There is no record of a successful piercing of the corporate veil for a publicly traded corporation because of the large number of shareholders and the extensive mandatory filings entailed in qualifying for listing on an exchange.”

Of course if your experience is an engineer and you are simply leaving a company for a promotion at another company with the same type of job the lender can count that.

But more than the money they make, I got a sense of how big a role it is to fix up bad homes and how it can directly impact not only the financial value of the whole neighborhood, but also promote value of local communities and healthier, safer living.

That, in turn, probably means that saving that money probably doesn't lead to a promotion or a raise for the decision maker at the bank.

I'm just repeating what he promotes.
