When I post an ad on Craigslist, I usually ask for pictures of work done and references, which I do call to check on.The references has to be GC's they worked for or customers they did work for, nothing less.

Hello again Janet and fellow investors,I'm not surprised when you mention creative terms such as owner financing and lease options, things get a little heated.This reminds me of the Auto repair shop that we built from scratch, and even during some pretty tough times, we were able to grow it by focusing on giving our customers "WOW" service, mixed in with a healthy portion of ethics and honesty.We also invested the time and money to learn the complex workings of today's cars, which allowed us to fix them right the first time!

All a swap really is is a customized futures or options contract.

I have heard complaints from other customers of them doing the same thing.Three letter name before the word "Loan."

Think about it for a minute, if you were able to qualify for a $200,000 loan 4 years ago, and nothing change in your life (same job, same people in your family etc..) why would the bank change your loan.And now let's say you lost your job, then why would they modify the loan when they know you are not gonna pay anyway.Let's say you didn't loose your job but your income dropped, then now you don't qualify for the loan because of today's loan criterias.In short, banks don't want to modify, because they don't want to create an habit for their customer to try to modify their loan.I know it's not fair when you see how much TARP money they got from the govt.

I wouldn't be surprises to see them go out of business real soon the way they're handling themselves.They lost your business and have an angry ex-customer.

Tell me what you think:New custom home by well established and respected builder is going to foreclosure 9/1.

It gets very high customer satisfaction scores from those who use it...so they apparently don't think it sucks.

I've also added my company, Vision Property Management, LLC, to the list of companies registered with BP and I see that some other members have their company logo attached as well.

The effect on M2 and the now-unreported M3 will be pure disaster at some date in the future, but they'll stave off the damage as long as THEY NEED US AS CUSTOMERS - not a day beyond.
