Oh and the mayor was here during the last council just a different department so that makes him fair game since he was involved in city activity then.  Find a new mantra for that..:D


I have absolutely no idea what you are trying to say.  My guess is that it doesn't matter.  Mayor Truitt is not on the Foreclosure committee so what is your point?  Look Luci, You can think as untowardly about these guys as you like, free country, your choice, but it really doesn't do anything to advance our City and quite frankly I think it is shameful, but enough said.  You think what you want, whatever the heck it is, and I will do the same.:cool:

thank you for your support and I am sure sweat today to our community.  3 1/2 years and it will be your time to run :D

Is this supposed to be the role of this committee?  Local government does not as a rule get involved in personal finances with its residents.  I was under the impression this was more about assessing the amount of foreclosed homes and trying to assist HOA's in protecting the properties and keeping the neighborhoods from becoming an eyesore or worse. Do you know Mike? :cool:

 I do agree Raz, to my knowledge that is the purpose of the committee plus researching alternatives to prevent foreclosure, it did not and does not include any form of city bail-out for individuals. Yes, it could be that since Doc has established a business related to foreclosures that his participation on the committee could become a conflict, but at the same time, it could also become one of the resources for the committee.

I should add it was great to see, Mayor Truitt, Councilman Alton, Councilman Williams, Police Chief Daniel Hughes, Ass't City Manager Kathy Rice, Rich Williams, the police and fire department off duty personnel. No wonder our city is upward bound with leadership like that willing to get their hands dirty, and build up a whole lot of sweat equity in making our neighborhoods look good.

You know I have not asked Doc on this, but it seems the commercial started after the committee was formed.  I am not sure and if anyone could clarify it would be interesting to see.  As for conflict of interest the mayor probably has the biggest conflict running with his (hopefully) former career.  Having the ability to deal with builders and approve developments and select who is coming in and where could be a sweet deal.  Now I am not saying he is doing that but the wonder could always be there.  Look at the real estate agency that stepped in for the quiet-zone meeting.  That is still fishy to me and was there any connection with city hall on that? :D:D

Dwigg, maybe I can help you out here. New business equals new phone number. Get it? Answering service for new business. If the program was explained with every phone call, no need for a seminar. Get It? I just called 411 and asked for a new listing in Surprise for a Gary Sullivan. Was given the number you listed. Duh! 

We were told the reason the first seminar had a 'fee' was so only the people that were serious about getting help would reserve a spot. It worked. They plan to have a free seminar every month.

Like Mike Woodard stated earlier, the fee is very reasonable. In fact, the lion's share of the fee is due only if Doc is successful.

I hope this helps you Dwigg.

Why do you feel the need to yell?  Does it make you that mad that some of us just don't buy into this.  Especially after reading the entire thread.   Does this sound like a deal someone would be foolish enough to get involved with?

Despite the $25 to get in ($40/couple), you do get a "free" lunch.  Call Jerman Armendariz at 623-236-9476 to reserve a seat or two. 

 

I asked for Jerman and was told they have no idea who that is.  The person I spoke to is just taking reservations. Doesn't have details.

 

Interesting.  That phone number is listed for Jerman

 

Oh, they DO NOT take credit cards it is cash at the door at time of check-in.

 

The young lady at check-in explained there would be no charge for the seminar.

 

Private money.

 

And his fee schedule isn't going to make him rich. He's satisfied with helping people in need.

Well, I wouldn't presume to say if Doc's business is helpful or not because I have nothing to base that judgment upon.  I was merely pointing out the City connection, I could care less what he does in his personal endeavors, in fact I wish him well.

My concern was and still is the fact he is trying to involve himself in a committee that would be beneficial to his business and I see a huge conflict of interest there.  What if one of the people that the committee was trying to assist went to Doc as a committee member for help and were unsatisfied with the results, then it becomes the fault of the City and rightfully so.  Therefore I believe the committee selection group did the right thing in rejecting his offer to be involved.


Nothing personal about this.  That is just common sense.

Is this supposed to be the role of this committee?  Local government does not as a rule get involved in personal finances with its residents.  I was under the impression this was more about assessing the amount of foreclosed homes and trying to assist HOA's in protecting the properties and keeping the neighborhoods from becoming an eyesore or worse. Do you know Mike? :cool:

Clearly some of you have had a longer relationship with Doc, than my wife and I have. Our situation was one of this. Honeywell sent my job out of the country. I have spent the last 7 months trying to find a job that would replace my previous income. I have looked and looked and still can not find a job. Of the few interviews I have been granted, the end result is I am “over qualified” My wife and I did not by a home out of our price range, but rather a home that we planned on living in till we retired. I planned on working at Honeywell for the same length. And again, this program saved us greatly. Now till I find another job, I can at least afford to pay our mortgage. Also, we did not pay a fee for this service or for the initial meeting. We would have though in a heart beat. It is a great, great program.

I also wondered about Doc's new endeavor in helping homeowners facing foreclosure. I talked with him maybe 6 weeks ago on the phone when I was gathering info on reverse mortgages, and he told me a bit about what he was doing and then the ad for the "Loan Doctor" came out and I called to see if he was the "doctor". He was, so we arranged to have breakfast, no I didn't need his help with my mortgage, but just wanted to see what it was all about. What Doc does is help the borrower and lender get together to help both parties, the borrower can't make the payments, the lender isn't in the real estate business and looses money if it has to sell the home cheap to get it off the books.

 Doc just helps by negotiating affordable payments between the two, based on an analysis of the the two parties. Sort of an arbitrator, and turns a lose/lose situation into a win/win. If he can bring in a little income so be it, his fee structure sounded fair to me. And it sounds as though he has some very satisfied homeowners. It's been a long, long time for me but I imagine that all of us have been down and seemingly out of options at some point in life. If Doc can help thats a plus isn't it?

dwig222, you are absolutely correct (scary that we agree on this one).  Doesn't it make you wonder why no one else has come up with the magic fix.  Doesn't it make you wonder why the city does not want Doc on a committee with his magic pill?  Doesn't it make you wonder why it is "cash only" (how many legitimate companies do you know that are "cash only")?  The company is in it for one reason and one reason only - to make money, don't fool yourself.  I have a feeling these 20 folks bought a pig in a poke and in a few years they will be asking us to bail them out of this scheme.  And what I say, if anyone is foolish enough to buy into the scheme, they get what they deserve.  What is the other saying - there is a sucker born everyday!

It's very rare for me to agree with Raz or Cindi, but if Doc had the "magic wand" that would help these people, he would be a millionaire.  Instead he is peddling his services on a discussion forum where he shouldn't even be allowed.    And, he takes out a confidential ad with a phone number that is suspicious and people answering the phone who don't know anything.   The people show up for the seminar with the "cash only" at the door fee and are told there is no charge.   Then we have several people who seem to have just registered for the board, coming on to peddle his services again.    Boy that sounds real legitimate to me.........sign me up.

LLL - you are right, Raz needs to let his bitterness go.

As for Cindisue - the failing economy has an affect on all of us.. what Doc is doing has nothing to do with homeowner taking bad loans in the beginning. Read his website and perhaps the light will go on for you. Everybody is hurting. If Doc can reduce their monthly expenses and no one gets hurt in the process, why not? You and Raz continue the attack on something you obviously know nothing about. Maybe you too should let it go.

Lets see, someone can reduce a person's mortgage payment by $400, $1,000, etc., (and it is a revelation that just came about when so many people are in trouble) doesn't that make you wonder how this can be done?  There were so many people that believe lenders in the past that they could reduce their payments, etc. and look where it got them; many of them are the ones that need help today.  Eventually everyone has to pay the piper (or loan company) - there is no free ride, no magic pill; just a lot of smoke and mirrors, not to mention a lot of snake oil.  For those that think that they are getting a break, keep that in mind when the piper comes calling.  What is the old say:  If it looks too good to be true it usually is!!!

Now Raz, you don't have to be so bitter.  Its ok to move on and let Doc be.  I know you were not happy that he did not drop off the earth and die.  He is brining small business to Surprise and apparently is one of the people who can be successful.   Holding a grudge cause he has shown initiative and apparently results with happy customers over a committee trying to create some type of welfare and cant seem to get started is showing your longterm memory in not letting it go.   :D:D:D

Raz - Yes it is now a business. But he turned it into a business only after he was told don't bother to apply for the committee. He doesn't need 'leads' from the city or a committee. If he has done 20 in two months he certainly doesn't need free leads. And his fee schedule isn't going to make him rich. He's satisfied with helping people in need. And why should he tell people like you and the worthless council how he does what he does. Remember, the mayor is a real estate broker and one councilman has 20 years banking experience. Yet Doc is the one who figured it out. He doesn't need them, but they certainly need him. But like you, they would never admit it. A committee that will meet for 16 weeks but come back with no idea how to help. Again, a feel good committee.

Don't know where you've been Barn, but I've been right here.  Sorry you missed me. or...didn't. :?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't that be a colossal "conflict of interest"?  He is charging people to help them with their loans, or at least one would assume he's charging since it's a business, then he wants the City to select him for a committee that is going out into the public to assist folks in financial need with their mortgages which is what his business does, right?  Because if he doesn't charge for this information, why not just share it in the newspaper or on here or both?  If it is as good of a deal as you keep saying it is, why the secret?

So whether the intention is there or not, it would have the definite appearance he is asking the City to help him find clients for his business "to assist folks in financial need with their mortgages".  Right?? or Wrong?:cool:

Well Mr. Raz, let us ask a question. If all the people on the Foreclosure Committee are so well educated, what's taking them so long to address the obvious? It's nothing more then a "feel good" committee. When will you admit that Doc created a plan to help but you ain't buyin'?

Yes they should swallow their pride and find out what he's doing and how the city and it's citizens can benefit. Don't they owe it to the citizens that put them in office? Or is this a political agenda committee?  

Raz you've been off this blog for awhile. We all appreciated your absence. Maybe it's time you go on another hiatus.

Thanks for the chuckle Barney. I think someone should take the hint and move on.  People have very long memories in this City, Surprise isn't that big yet. ;) I don't think Councilman Williams needs to do anything different, he is doing a great job and we are very proud of him. There is a multitude of experienced and well educated professionals in this area to tap into, he doesn't need to swallow anything, he's a smart guy and will do just fine. :cool:

According to today’s Arizona Republic article, AG: Surprise violated open meeting law.

 

In my opinion the open meeting violation was a minor accusation that the City Manager made, why were not the other charges addressed.

A good example of the Fox guarding the chicken coop.

FTL hopefully someone can contribute the numbers who might be in the know, and rv hopefully certain people in the city can swallow their pride enough to get with Doc.  It all sounds good and what needs to be considered is the good not only for the individuals, but also their communities with fewer foreclosures.

From what we are reading on this Blog it appears that our previous Council member Doc Sullivan might have a workable solution to help some of our residents.

If this is true, wonder if the City of Surprise has had conversations with "Doc", HOPE SO.

I do wonder why Doc is not on the committee? Well, maybe I don't wonder. He's too busy helping neighbors save their homes. And the Foreclosure committee is busy doing what.? Identifying what most of us already know.  

 

Does anyone know how many families Doc has helped with his new program?

I have to agree. The loan Doctor was a great resource for our family. We were able to save our home and reduce our payments tremendously. Our own bank did not even try to help us. We would have no problems recommending this program if someone needed help.

 

Thanks Doc for everything,

Michael Williams

As far as the Loan Doctor is concerned I've heard very good results.  It is worth taking a look at if anyone needs the help.  Otherwise, why concern yourself?

So what's the name of this great company that saved someone $1100 a month on her mortage.   Does Doc personally help you or does he have a company or any kind of credentials?

No infomercial. Say what you want about Doc Sullivan, but the people I spoke with at the seminar swear the program worked for them. Private money.

Thanks for getting back to us, Lisa.  Like a bad penny Doc Sullivan keeps turning up.  That aside, were any specifics provided on how to reduce (refinance or something more exotic?) your mortgage payment or was this more like an infomerical?

Sorry for the delay. I was out of town for business. As promised, I wanted to report about the Loan Doctor seminar.

The first surprise; no fee to get in. The young lady at check-in explained there would be no charge for the seminar. 

I must say I enjoyed the entire experience. Informative, entertaining and educational.

A gentleman started the seminar with an overview of the economy, past, present and what to expect in the future, short-term and long-term. Very eye opening.

Then several people spoke about their personal financial situation and what the Loan Doctor was able to do for them. One after another gave testimonials and how much they are now saving on house payments. One lady said her house payment was reduced by $1100 per month.

The last speaker was Doc Sullivan. After a brief explanation about his background in banking, he explained how the program was developed and how it works. I found it to be extremely fascinating and creative. Then he asked, by a show of hands, how many brought their check book with them. My first thought was 'here it comes'. Doc asked us to look around the room. Do you see books for sale? Or CD's for sale? Nothing is for sale. Put your check book away. We're here to offer help to those struggling to make house payments. At the very least everyone here today will leave better informed and aware of options to save their home.

The entire experience would have been worth more then the $25 I didn't pay.
