Is this a good time for buyer because sellers may be more inclined to make deals, ie: lower the price of the property?

Would it be more advantageous to invest in a REIT mutual fund for added diversification? Or can I find a list somewhere of the top performing REITS and pick from those individual stocks?

I moved out May 31st, 2006. I paid a security deposit of $350 plus another cat deposit of $200. I paid with cashier's checks most of the summer and that is how I paid for my pet deposit. So basically my deposits equal $550 total. I lived there through my entire contract and did not leave earlier or break the contract.
Now it is August 23rd and I have not received a security deposit yet. I gave them my new address the day I moved out the same time I gave them the keys to my apartment back.
I contacted them two weeks ago wondering why I haven't gotten my money back. Their first response is that "maybe it got lost in the mail, call me tomorrow. Those checks should've been issued to you all ready."
Days pass, call back and they go, "Well we want proof of your cat deposit now and your place was dirty when you left."
It seems like they keep putting off giving me my money back. I read in MN landlords should return deposits or a letter in 3 weeks. Now what do I do??

I may have to declare bankruptcy (most likely will be chapt 13) and if that happens I want to work very hard on rebuilding my credit to the best of my ability. Does anyone have any resources I should read or suggestions about how I can learn to rebuild my credit after a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Thank you

I work in an insurance agency and about 4 months ago, my boss hired an idiot for an office manager position, who claimed she had all this experince but doesn't. No one here likes her neither does the boss. The problem is that the boss is paying unemployment on some else he fired previously, so he's afraid that if he fires her, that he will have the same problem with her. After weeks of messed up policies and complaints from us, the boss finally sat down with her and demoted her to CSR assuming she will feel offended and quit..Well...Guess what? She's still here!!! One good employee that was here for about 2 years quit because of the IDIOT. The receptionist and I are on a mission to get her to do something that is worthy of being FIRED...
I know this sounds cruel, but no one like her and she is so time consuming!!
HELP, I need suggestions quick!!

10 points to the best possible answer.

Me and my fiance were involved in an auto accident where the other driver was completely at fault. This accident happened over 2 1/2 years ago. I was pregnant at the time and my fiance had to have surgery and 6 months of therapy to rebuild his shoulder. We lost all of our income for 7 months. His medical bills and lost wages exceeded 100 thousand $. Now we are trying to settle and the insurance company offered to pay the medical bills,lost wages plus 5,000 dollars "pain and suffering" We are not trying to be greedy here but it seems like nothing compared to what was messed up by the accident. Our lawyer seems so non chalant about it. My fiance asked about the 3x the medical bills for pain and suffering and our lawyer told him it was a myth and not to expect more than what the ins. com. offered the 1st time. Does this seem fair...I'm seriously considering getting a 2nd opinion from a different lawyer...anybody been through the same kind of thing...what was the end result? Thanks!
