Gilroy,

TREIA meeting is tomorrow evening in north Raleigh if you can make it up that far. Usually a pretty good turnout from the few meetings I've been to. Fayetteville REIA seems to be pretty active based on the email blasts that I receive from them....

o/p, can you get the agent to send you an email confirming the numbers and the agreement? If she's dumb enough to do that, this should be an easy bust...might even earn you some brownie points at the bank...

Thank You!

Two incomes better than one..??

Man that sucks, sorry to hear that. It does however, give me pause to think about how to prevent such attacks. If you had somebody staying on the property overnight (workers?), maybe have some sort of camp setup? I "know a guy" that is known to "camp" in properties that he's doing work on in order to save on hotel bills...

What if they want to go on vacation to Thailand, or eat out at a fancy restaurant? Or attend a play or dinner theater? Their lifestyle does not afford them the freedom to do so.

Equal privileges, choices and opportunities are not rights granted by the Constitution or by God. I would like to cruise the world on a 150' yacht, but I don't have that choice. The difference between me and most of the rest of mankind is, 1- I recognize that fact and 2- I don't begrudge those who are lucky enough to have that opportunity...
