Question #5:
Abandoned beach house?
There is a pretty beach house near where I live. My friends and I were staying at another house near by it. We were walking to the beach and we saw this pretty big one that was empty and the doors we completely unlocked. We went inside and it was a little dirty dirty and there were a few dead cock roaches here and there. The pool in the back yard was drained out and rust and all sorts of other stuff were unkempt. There wasn't a for sale or rent or any sort of real estate sign on it either. That was during this summer, so were going to go back and see if it's still empty.If it is, would it be illegal if my friends used it? Like, fixed it up, or went and hung out in it after the beach? I don't want to get in trouble for trespassing, but it's completely abandoned!
Question #6:
Calculus optimizing problems?
A real estate office manages 50 apartments in a downtown building. When the rent is $900 per month, all the units are occupied. For every $25 increase in rent, one unit becomes vacant. On average, all units require $75 in maintenance and repairs each month. How much rent should the real esate office charge to maximize profits?Question #7:
If the Mormons are right about Eden, should everyone with means be buying real estate near Kansas City, MO?
Wilford Woodruff quoting Brigham Young (1879):[spelling as original diary] Again Presdet [sic] Young said Joseph the Prophet told me that the garden of Eden was in Jackson Co Missouri, & when Adam was driven out of the garden of Eden He went about 40 miles to the Place which we Named Adam Ondi Ahman, & there built an Altar of Stone & offered Sacrifize [sic]. That Altar remains to this day. I saw it as Adam left it as did many others, & through all the revolutions of the world that Altar had not been disturbed.

Question #9:
Real Estate Agents . . . Have you noticed . . .?
I've had this happen twice in the last month and was wondering if it was just particular to my area or a nation wide phenomenon.Have you noticed banks driving up bids on short sales with blind submissions, countering back at a price higher than list and then foreclosing on the home only to put it back up for sale at a substantially higher price . . .
Just curious if this was widespread practice or if it was just a case of lightening striking twice. Any thoughts?
Thanks.

Buying a horse but...?
Moving.. To get a horse :P?Ok so i'm not moving to actually get a horse, i can afford it easier if my family did. My dad plans on moving in july. The real estate man is probably going to come to my house to do a price for our listing!
My dad says that our house has to be more than $800 000 so we can sell, becuase if it isn't than he doesn't want to move. my dad said if the real estate man does say its over, which my dad thinks it will be, then we can maybe look for horses. BUT i found the horse of my dreams and i'm very sure. His name is tim hes a 16.3 hh Tb cross (by the looks of it) gelding. The thing is july is only about 4 months away, Would it hurt to maybe go see him? and possibly if im absolutly absolute about buying him, buy him? I really dont want to let him get away!
Also my dad said i can get a horse after we move.

Question #14:
Why is Obama slamming health insurance profits? Don't they have profit margins of 3 to 4%?
Over the past year, “the profit margin for health insurance companies was a modest 3.4 percent,” Newman points out, quoting data provided by Morningstar, a company that rates mutual funds. Morningstar would have no reason to low-ball the insurance industry’s profits; its readers are looking for highly profitable sectors of the economy where they can invest. But the health plan industry is not one of those sectors: insurers ranks 87th out of 215 industries.The most profitable industry over the past year has been
- beverages, with a 25.9 percent profit margin,
- healthcare real-estate trusts (firms that are basically the landlords for hospitals and healthcare facilities)
- application-software (think Windows).
- oil and gas industry overall was 10.2 percent, three times the margin in the health insurance industry.
- high-fliers like Google—which had a 20.6 percent margin
- Microsoft, at 24.9 percent.
- Pharmaceutical companies 16.4 percent
Amgen (biotechnology): Profit margin, 30.6 percent
• Gilead Sciences (biotechnology): 37.6 percent
• Celgene Corp. (biotechnology): 11.9 percent
• Johnson & Johnson (drug manufacturer): 20.8 percent
• Pfizer (drug manufacturer): 16.3 percent
• GlaxoSmithKline (drug manufacturer): 17.4 percent
• Unitedhealth Group (healthcare plans): 4.1 percent
• WellPoint (healthcare plans): 4 percent
• Aetna (healthcare plans): 3.9 percent
• MedcoHealth Solutions (healthcare services): 2.1 percent
• Express Scripts (healthcare services): 3.7 percent
• Quest Diagnostics (healthcare services): 8.7 percent
• Medtronic (medical equipment): 14.9 percent
• Baxter International (medical equipment): 17.5 percent
• Covidien (medical equipment): 12.3 percent

Melissa - using data from the AFL/CIO is tainted. MorningStar is an organization who monitors and rates investments. I would not believe the AFL/CIO numbers.
DSTR - We are not talking CEO compensation. We are talking overall profit margins. If he made $1 million, would $2 million impact profits all that much?
Hey mental case - I think you named yourself appropriately. I am not Paul Grass regardless of how many times you say it. You sound like Obama making false accusations about insurance industry profits.

Question #19:
Signing a contract with a real estate agent before looking at houses in NY?
I bought a house several years ago and I never had to sign anything to be shown a house by a real estate agent.(they may have taken general info from me - name, phone, etc.) Now I call and they want me to sign a contract with them? They claim it is NY state law, but I think they are trying to rope me into having them be an exclusive agent for me. Does anyone know what the truth is in this?oh, this is just to view the house by the way. It isn't to purchase it, or to create a purchase agreement or anything. This is simply - "can you show me this house. I am interested in looking at it" Well first you have to sign this contract...
It also is not the first time I have encountered this.
