Could put the consumer debt into a debt reduction plan or file bankrupcty and find something that pays better

Whatever your interest - Real Estate or otherwise - become a student of that subject - buy several books and consume them until you feel comfortable with the "lingo of the trade" and the Processes & Systems involved.

I was thinking it was much more time consuming.  

only because i have read that wholesaling is aggressive, time consuming, and at most times really hard to manage between buyers lists, getting deals, ect.   

You are forcing a consumer to work with someone who could be totally horrible.

My local TV station just did a consumer segment on this (I got to be interviewed) as my 4 bedroom, 3 bath, $1150 ad got stolen and relisted for $700 (!). 

@Darrell Hayes,My tax and legal expert's office has a whole separate department with a sign on their wall which reads, "We fix LegalZoom entities".Dun & Bradstreet is to the business world what FICo is to the consumer world.

That being said, the commentary about financial markets and consumer credit card debt exposes the appraiser as letting his personal politics get into his job, which is unprofessional.

(More on Florida)In Florida, the Save Our Homes Amendment to the Florida Constitution prevents the assessed value of homestead property from increasing more than 3% per year, or the percent change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.

Agreed Jay, and that's pretty much our old "good ole days" prior to the predatory lending laws, Dodd-Frank, changes in TILA and a half dozen other Acts as well as  ALTA setting up changes in title requirements, insuring title and escrow.Of the DIL's I accepted I never had one issue, never, but then that was then and we're no longer in then, my comments are from current (last 3 years) of consuming legal opinions, rulings and perceptions within the whitepapers of agency and governing organizations.
