Their Stories Are All Too Familiar But This Time An Angel Steps In

The Housing Angels helps homeowners destined for foreclosure stay in their homes.

2011-05-10

SCOTTSDALE, AZ, May 09, 2011 (Press-News.org) They are our neighbors; Tim and Kim Bradfield of Phoenix, Jason and Jennifer Harris of West Phoenix, Tom and Jodi Giallanza of Buckeye, Dave and Amy Littler of Gilbert, Byron and Perez Nash of Mesa, Tom and Leslie Schultz, just to name a few. And their stories are far too commonplace. Due to the slowing economy salaries were reduced or jobs lost, or there were unforeseen medical bills that had to be paid.

These families could no longer afford to make their mortgage payment and could not sell their house because with dropping real estate values they were upside-down in their home (owed more than what the home was worth). They were one step from losing their home.

Enter the Housing Angels.

The Housing Angels is the program launched by Dave Dziedzic of Real Core Realty that helps homeowners destined for foreclosure keep their homes. An 'Angel' investor purchases the home in a short sale, then allows the former owner to lease the home with an option to buy it back, without ever having to leave their home.

And best of all, there is no cost to the homeowner.

In each case the family stayed in their home and their monthly payment was well below their previous mortgage payments. And not only did they not have to uproot their kids, they were also on a path to rebuild their credit with a goal to buy back their home in three years at a significantly lower price.

According to Dave Dziedzic, Most see the benefit of having a third party buy the home via a short sale thus preventing the lender from having to foreclose and negatively impacting their bottom line. And the program is excellent for investors who want to own a rental property because there already is a tenant living there with an interest in maintaining the home.

Dave is also very excited about the Housing Angels Charity program which will donate $100 of all properties listed in May and $100 of every property closed in May to Great Strides Taking Steps to Cure Cystic Fibrosis, the most prevalent genetic disease in the United States.

Canada needs an agency to investigate research misconduct, states an editorial in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal) (pre-embargo link only) http://www.cmaj.ca/embargo/cmaj110442.pdf. Although honesty, accuracy and professionalism of scientists are vital for research integrity, there have been many public examples of serious research misconduct. Conflicts of interest, author misrepresentation and manipulation of data are other issues that also affect scientific and academic research. Scientific journals can and will investigate misconduct when detected, and ...

Sexual orientation affects cancer survivorship

2011-05-10

Gay men have a higher prevalence of cancer compared with heterosexual men, and lesbian and bisexual female cancer survivors report lower levels of health than heterosexual female cancer survivors. Those are the conclusions of a new study published early online in Cancer, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society. The study's findings shed light on the types of programs and services that are needed to assist lesbian, gay, and bisexual cancer survivors. Cancer surveillance studies don't ask questions about sexual orientation, which means there is scarce information ...

Methane levels 17 times higher in water wells near hydrofracking sites

2011-05-10

DURHAM, N.C. – A study by Duke University researchers has found high levels of leaked methane in well water collected near shale-gas drilling and hydrofracking sites. The scientists collected and analyzed water samples from 68 private groundwater wells across five counties in northeastern Pennsylvania and New York. "At least some of the homeowners who claim that their wells were contaminated by shale-gas extraction appear to be right," says Robert B. Jackson, Nicholas Professor of Global Environmental Change and director of Duke's Center on Global Change. Hydraulic ...

Immature skull led young tyrannosaurs to rely on speed, agility to catch prey

2011-05-10

ATHENS, Ohio (May 9, 2011)—While adult tyrannosaurs wielded power and size to kill large prey, youngsters used agility to hunt smaller game. "It's one of the secrets of success for tyrannosaurs—the different age groups weren't competing with each other for food because their diets shifted as they grew," said Ohio University paleontologist Lawrence Witmer. Witmer is part of an international team of scientists from Japan, Mongolia and the United States that analyzed the youngest and most-complete known skull for any species of tyrannosaur, offering a new view of the ...

Sensitizing prostate cancer to radiotherapy

2011-05-10

Men with prostate cancer whose disease has spread locally from inside the prostate to immediately outside it are primarily treated with radiation therapy. However, disease recurs in approximately half of these individuals. Strategies to enhance the efficacy of this treatment and thereby decrease the incidence of disease recurrence are clearly needed. Shawn Lupold and colleagues, at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, have now developed an approach that enhances the therapeutic effects of radiation therapy in mice bearing human prostate cancer xenografts. ...

Reducing the side effects of a multiple sclerosis drug

2011-05-10

The drug FTY720 is approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis. Although highly effective it can have serious side effects, including reduced lung function and fluid accumulation in the eye. Understanding the multiple molecular mechanisms by which the drug affects its target (the S1P receptor) could lead to the development of a drug with the same therapeutic efficacy but reduced side effects. In this context, a team of researchers, led by Timothy Hla, at Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, has now detailed the molecular mechanism by which FTY270 causes adverse ...
