I don't see a date. Is that the old one, or a fun new development?

Love the way the blog is becoming more visual. Keep it up. A picture is worth a thousand words or, in this case, it might be worth about eight years total, four apiece.

The "other" blog for the defending Tom and Jon is a joke.

After realizing the pathetic site backfired, the admin is now deleting posts that paint a negative picture or Tom and his associates.

What a hypocrite.

Thanks as always.

OMG! Isn't there some kind of law as to how many of these LLC's one can have?? How did they possibly keep track of them all?

Looks like there is a court hearing today. Send any updates.

Minneapolis puts squeeze on problem housing

With foreclosures booming, City Hall recommended three actions to combat the empty-house epidemic.

By STEVE BRANDT, Star Tribune

Last update: February 20, 2008 - 8:35 PM

A City Council panel Wednesday took three actions aimed at problematic properties as the number of new foreclosures in the city last month hit 344 properties. The committee recommended that the full council:

• Revoke a rental license for an unprecedented 45 rental properties associated with Roseville-based TJ Waconia, a firm that the FBI has said it is investigating for mortgage fraud.

[WHERE WILL THE RENTERS GO? THIS IS JUST WRONG, AND SHOWS HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE BEING HURT BY TJ WACONIA. BUT THE CITY'S RESPONSE IS WRONG, UNLESS THEY'RE GOING TO STEP IN AND HELP THOSE RENTERS]

• Triple the annual fee charged against vacant and boarded housing to $6,000 in an effort to recover some of the city's costs for dealing with them.

[THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! TJ WACONIA, YOU HELPED CAUSE THIS AND THIS IS GOING TO IMPACT ME DIRECTLY. THIS FEE IS ENTIRELY TOO MUCH AND I HOPE PROPERTY OWNERS WILL BE UP IN ARMS. WHO WANTS TO BUY A HOUSE THAT NEEDS REHABBING IF THE CITY IS GOING TO PULL THIS? THE $2000 FEE WAS ALREADY TOO HIGH. THIS NEEDS TO BE CHALLENGED IN COURT]

• Impose a new $1,000 fee on residences that convert to rental units that intended to pay for an immediate inspection to make sure they meet the city's rental licensing standards.

[OK, I COULD ACTUALLY AGREE WITH THIS ONE]

Although it was coincidental that the three actions wound up on the agenda of the Public Safety and Regulatory Services Committee, together they amount to a heightened city response to the epidemic of empty homes in some neighborhoods.

[I CAN'T BELIEVE A SMART REPORTER LIKE BRANDT IS GOING TO BUY INTO THIS "ACCIDENTAL" BS]

The tripling of the vacant housing registration fee follows an analysis of the costs incurred by the city in monitoring the number of boarded properties has swollen from about 250 in 2005 to more than 800 now.

Powderhorn resident Sara Bergen applauded the move. "This will place the costs on the unscrupulous owners who create them," she said.

[AND ON ANYBODY WHO WANTS TO BUY A HOME AND REHAB IT, AND THESE FOLKS WERE NOT "UNSCRUPULOUS OWNERS."]

Besides running a $1.4 million problem properties unit, the city incurs police, fire, rubbish cleanup and other expenses at vacant houses, Inspection Director Henry Reimer said. Total costs exceed $2 million.

"It's unfortunate that we have to collect this money. But somebody has to pay for it and it shouldn't be the taxpayers," said Council President Barbara Johnson.

[I NOTICE SOME THINGS ENTIRELY MISSING FROM THE CITY'S RESPONSE: WHO IS GOING TO GET ALL THE "FAKE INFO" OUT OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY REGISTRATION SYSTEM? FOR EXAMPLE, IRENE THOMAS OF ST. CLOUD, WHO WAS INVOLVED WITH THE UNIVERSAL MORTGAGE SCAME--ALLEGED--CAN ONLY LIVE IN ONE HOUSE AT A TIME.

SO WHY IS SHE REGISTERED AS THE "RESIDENT" IN MORE THAN ONE HOUSE THE LAST TIME I CHECKED? I'VE EMAILED PEOPLE IN THE CITY GOVERNMENT BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT AT PRESENT.

FURTHERMORE, THE TAXES OF NUMEROUS PROPERTIES ARE BASED ON INFLATED VALUES, BUT THE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS IS HAPPY TO KEEP COLLECTING TAX MONEY. BANKS--WHO YOU WOULD THINK LOVE MONEY SO MUCH--DON'T BOTHER FILING VALUATION APPEALS ON THESE PROPERTIES AND JUST PAY THE TAXES LIKE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS.

I GUESS THEY ARE MADE OUT OF MONEY OR SOMETHING.

SO, IN THE CITY'S RESPONSE, YOU DON'T SEE ANY RECOMMENDATION TO REVIEW AND REVISE THE MASSIVE, GROSSLY INFLATED PROPERTY VALUES ON WHICH TAXES ARE BASED. SURE, THESE PROPERTY VALUES AREN'T AS HIGH AS THE FRAUDULENT MORTGAGE FRAUD PRICES--HOW COULD THEY BE-- BUT YOU STILL SEE STUFF LIKE PROPERTIES BUYERS CAN'T UNLOAD FOR $19K BEING VALUED AT $60K.]

The $1,000 fee to inspect houses that are converted to rental use exempts nonprofit housing and units recently constructed or remodeled. It also will help finance an employee whose job will be to track down unlicensed rental units.

After opposition from apartment owners, a proposal to charge a $1,000 inspection fee every time a rental unit is sold was dropped.

The full council plans to act on the recommendations at its Feb. 29 meeting. Tenants at the nine occupied houses whose licenses are being revoked have been sent to the city's housing office for help in dealing with their displacement, said Janine Atchison, a city manager.

Hey Hoffy what is in this for you? Oh wait, I know, you just love spending all your FREE time doing nothing, just digging up shi_. I would really like to know, what are these guys to you? I am curious, because I found some other blogs that you post on, that have nothing to do with this blog. You are so lonely, that you spend your days blogging to people that you don't even know, and don't care to know you?

good luck on getting anything from those two, they dont own a thing. if you havent noticed, everything they ever owned is in forclosure. look at the above post.

Anonymous said...

Yes agreed, but what did they do with all the money they siphoned off the properties before everything went into foreclosure? Are they paying their own mortgage, car payments, etc.?

Doe anyone know if they have filed Bankruptcy?
