McGoon, we have a problem

Posted July 7th, 2008 by Joe Kaiser

So, no tax sales this year, Rob, no new trustees sales, and yet another unintended consequence of your office's new foreclosure law.

I called Eric and asked about it, leaving a voice mail. That was a couple days ago and he’s never called back . . . and I’m done waiting.
