Some Housing Links

Hi All,

Just found some interesting sites on the web regarding condominium manager issues. Click here for an article titled 'How to Handle Problems With a Condominium's Board of Managers'.  Link is from the Attorney General of the State of New York .

Another useful link for folks also comes from the New York State Attorney Generals office.  Titled 'A Housing Guide for Senior Citizens' the link might be useful for seniors trying to learn about legal protections for tenants, housing options, maintaining the home and help with utilities.

Note that both links open document with Adobe's pdf program.

Enjoy the housing links - hope they help.

Hi All,

Some readers might be familiar with the senior group 'AARP'.   Others might not be familiar with the organization.  Well, AARP is an acronym which stands for 'American Association of Retired Persons and it is one of the premier senior citizen advocacy groups in the United States.

Scams against seniors are prevalent.  Very prevalent.  And, with scams against seniors from scam artists using tools like telephones, cellphones, credit cards, internet fraud/scams, banking scams and more, senior citizens (okay....actually folks of any age, gender, race or religion) need to be aware of various scams that are currently be used by scam artists.  

With that said, readers of all ages, religion, gender might want to visit the AARP Fraud Watch Network website by clicking on this link.

Basically the AARP's Fraud Watch Network links users with experts, law enforcement and people like you who are on the lookout for scams. Users can check out the latest alerts from state Attorneys General and other local officials, read what people are reporting in your state and you can let AARP know about any suspicious emails, phone calls or other scams you’ve seen in your area.   AARP will then add your experience to the map so others know what to watch out for!

How is that for interactive, timely and helpful.

Users can sign up for the Fraud Watch Network alert to stay up-to-date on con artists' latest tricks by clicking on this link!
