I wanted to understand what the law is regarding the legal costs associated with the foreclosure.  Is the owner responsible for those legal fees?  How can you avoid them?  Also if the home sells for less than what is owed, who is responsible for the deficiency?  Is that taxable income?]]></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Sun, 12 Apr 2009 10:02:35 PDT]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[can I use a realtor after contacting the listing agent for general information?]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.trulia.com/voices/Home_Buying/can_I_use_a_realtor_after_contacting_the_listing_a-142292]]></link><description></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Thu, 2 Jul 2009 10:20:02 PDT]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Phoenix area economy and housing market continues to deteriorate - rental market flooded - 2012 stable?]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.trulia.com/voices/Home_Selling/The_Phoenix_area_economy_and_housing_market_contin-142433]]></link><description><![CDATA[A recent article in the Arizona Republic discussed how the market has been flooded with rentals:  "The Phoenix-area housing market has been flooded with homes for rent in recent months, raising concerns about whether there will be enough tenants to keep the Valley's estimated 130,000-and-growing rental properties out of financial jeopardy."

According to the Tax Assessor the appraised value is $51K for 08 and $100,500 for 09.  The developer threatened to take another owner to federal court since the owner accused him of predatory lending. The developer stated he can afford great attorneys and we cannot. What can we do? It is legal for a developer is sell properties higher than appraised value since the developer is also the mortage holder?]]></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Wed, 1 Jul 2009 13:46:28 PDT]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Want to pull up only Desert Mountain Community homes in zip code 85262]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.trulia.com/voices/Home_Buying/Want_to_pull_up_only_Desert_Mountain_Community_hom-24818]]></link><description></description><pubDate><![CDATA[Thu, 6 Mar 2008 06:31:10 PST]]></pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're planning to buy a home a in 85255 (3000 Sq.
