  • How can I get a loan to buy and repair a fire damage house?

    Hi, I am interested in buying a house that was recently damaged in fire. It lost part of its roof, and most of its interior walls were stripped to frame.

    It's zillow value is 800K (assuming no damage), and its selling for 450K as a foreclosure. I have 125K that I can out toward the closing, but it seems to me that this kind of damaged house may not qualify for a regular loan. On top of that, I am not sure, how can I get a construction loan of about 100k to fix the house? Can anyone suggest a lender who can finance such a house and other lender that can give me a loan to fix it? I am planning to hire a licensed contractor to do the job. Thanks in advance.

  • How do you search for a good used car?

    I am looking to buy a used 2006 Honda Accord or Toyota Camry. I looked at Siftin.com's car search and it gives me a good coverage for sites, where I will typically go to look for used car. I am still not sure, if they cover all major sites. Some of the sites covered were cars.com, craigslist, autotrader, etc. I was happy to see some sites I never thought of looking like myspace and fastauto...something

    Need your suggestion on where else should I look for finding a used car. I want to make sure that I am not paying anything extra

    It's very clear that Obama has been leading all the polls (even Nickelodeon :) ) but lets not forget our president sitting in white house. (who controls the voting booths/machines)

    Is it possible that out of no where McCain will come on top?

    What will you do, even if you will know that there was a voting fraud?

  • is it a crime to touch someone's car?

    I saw a dirty SLK in the office parking lot. I decided to put "Wash me" on it using my finger on its windshield. As I was putting it, the guy who owned the car came and start shouting at me. He said, I can go to jail for this. I kinda got concerned that if you are touching someone's car, is that a crime? Or lets put it this way, does writing on someone's windshield using existing dirt, is that a crime?

  • how do I hide redirection address on status bar of my browser?

    Hi,

    on my website,I send user submitted data to another site (youtube.com) and wait for it to return, in order to display the results. When a user click on "submit" he can see where the data is coming from in the status bar. Is there any way of hiding or encrypting this information using javascript, etc. I am fine with displaying ip address instead of domain name.
