Using Real Estate to Secure Appeal Bonds How is the equity determined by the surety? In order to determine the equity, sureties typically require an appraisal, which the client has to pay for. Residential appraisals typically only cost a few hundred dollars, but commercial appraisals can run in into the thousands depending on the type of property. There are instances where a surety may be willing to waive an appraisal such as a property in a good area, free and clear of debt, and worth substantially more than the appeal bond required. https://courtsurety.com/appeal-bonds/using-real-estate-to-secure-appeal-bonds/ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Walker88 Posted February 19 Popular Post Share Posted February 19 14 hours ago, Danderman123 said: I haven't seen any evidence of tax evasion yet during this trial. Except for the $48 million "loan". Apparently there is an ongoing IRS audit over something that was booked as a ~$250 million loan, which was later reported as 'forgiven', as in no need to repay. Forgiven debt is required to be reported as income on tax returns, and trump failed to do that. Taxes due, interest and penalties would well exceed $100 million. A couple of NYT's reporters have gotten access to some of the details of this audit...Russ Buettner and a colleague, and they have noted it several times in media interviews and panel shows. I think the reporters also said this audit has been going on for years, so it predates Biden, and apparently wasn't squelched under Mnunchin. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be going to the SC. Doubtful if Trump can't raise the bond money from his rubes. IMO law-abiding businesses will still be getting along fine. Hang on a second, I have a penthouse condo for you. 400 sqm. Sure they can ask. Then I would either go and look or have a team that is trained look and evaluate. Then I might change the offer.

Ring him up and trade some RE for cash, or future deliverables (arms, nukes). Two former federal prosecutors on Sunday mused about what might happen if Donald Trump decides to go to someone like Elon Musk or even Vladimir Putin to pay of his massive fraud judgment out of New York. Former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance also took up Weissmann's concern and added, "Imagine a president openly beholden to Musk, Putin or MBS." https://www.rawstory.com/trump-putin-pay-off-legal-debt/ 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody forced the voters of New York to go to the polls and vote for any political party. If you think that it is political then look here. https://edition.cnn.com/politics/live-news/ny-special-election-santos-02-13-24/index.html Democratic victory: Democrat Tom Suozzi won the special election in New York to succeed disgraced former Republican Rep. George Santos — a result that will further shrink the House GOP’s narrow majority. What this means for the House: Democrats now take back the seat Santos turned red in 2022, a huge win in a race that focused on immigration. While the victory won’t affect control of the House, an even tighter GOP margin could prove critical in upcoming legislative battles. The election could also offer clues for the fall races. How about a former Republican Mayor of New York? Once a Trump lawyer and now a bankrupt. Rudy Giuliani? Perhaps the people of New York (who are the voters) are fed up with Republicans. Perhaps the Republicans got fed up with the Dem government and the way the city is and went to Texas or Florida like a lot of other people. NY is a Dem state, pure and simple. Rudy got in and made a lot of difference as Mayor. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a problem with that, I suggest you move to Russia or North Korea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BE88 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I'm pretty neutral on this political battle in the US, it's not my country, but it makes me wonder why no NY judge has ever put a single banker in prison? Yet bank embezzlements had been in the public square for years. And only a few small penalties of a few million were given to the banks involved in billions of illegal benefits. Corruption is total in NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
