Brendan Killian's with me from Denver Shades dot Co, which is made 8 00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:54.679 in the shade, and we're talking about all kinds of things today. I 9 00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:58.399 want to put a couple of words out right now because I'd like to know 10 00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:07.560 where do you go if you need to get machining done on a small engine? 11 00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:12.400 I want all my YouTube morons and everyone else to help me. I 12 00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:17.000 don't know where to go a small motorcycle engine. Where do you go? 13 00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:23.200 Regular machine shops don't do it? Yeah, so where do you go? 14 00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.400 I don't have a I mean my people in car business, they all know 15 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:32.519 about machine shops for transmissions and engines and big things. But where do you 16 00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:38.719 go for motorcycle engines, for the small cylinder stuff? For honing, machining, 17 00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:44.040 for heads, for blocks. Where do you go? People? Come 18 00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:46.439 on? I know I got a lot of I know I have to have 19 00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:51.640 a lot of motorcycle people out there, so I'd like to know three zero 20 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.599 three seven one three talk three o three seven one three eight two five five. 21 00:01:56.359 --> 00:02:00.560 And I don't know if it's a new trend or an o trend. 22 00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:07.400 If it's a trend that's new or old brending. But weird shape windows now, 23 00:02:07.520 --> 00:02:12.520 I thought that was a thing of the seventies and eighties with the weird 24 00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:19.080 shape windows now what you know what I mean? Trapezoid even some triangles, 25 00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:23.840 some you know, some weird shape windowst's just stay weird. So were they 26 00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.599 old? Are they still in newer houses? Now? The more the ones 27 00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.280 I see, what do you call the ones that are real long and big 28 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:36.759 and and the tops are like one end of a trapezoid. It's not it's 29 00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.759 square in the bottom but curved on the top, you know what I mean, 30 00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.560 Like they follow the roofline. Yep, what are they? I mean? 31 00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:46.400 The lot of most of the are trapezoid windows, trapezoid where the the 32 00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:51.599 each end is parallel to I don't know, they would be offset like, 33 00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:53.919 so one whatever to the last ones. Okay, whatever, weird, let's 34 00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:58.280 just call a weird tree. Well shaped windows? Okay, odd, better 35 00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:00.840 than we what are you doing that? Seriously? So we're getting a lot 36 00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:05.080 of calls on these, as I was telling you earlier, there's a lot 37 00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:07.840 of those windows down in Colorado springs and in the mountains and stuff. Because 38 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:14.520 okay, so okay, let's we have options to cover those. There's even 39 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:20.400 motorized options, roller shades, solar screens, motorized honeycomb and fixed lights right 40 00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.680 the window. Yeah, yeah, it's just a fixed window. But you 41 00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:28.919 know, people get blasted from that western sun in there and it heats up 42 00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.280 their house in the summer, so they need options. Now, octagons are 43 00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:36.840 very common, right, can you actually you can't get a shade inside an 44 00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:40.919 octagony? Yep? How do you do that? So there's all sorts of 45 00:03:40.919 --> 00:03:46.319 products for that. There's a product called tableau, which is more stationary. 46 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:51.680 And then then okay, yeah, there's you can get one. Okay, 47 00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:53.599 can you get one that goes up and down? Though? Yeah? You 48 00:03:53.639 --> 00:03:57.319 can. Well, how does it though? Is it on the outside of 49 00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:01.560 the window or no, it's inside and it it collapses coming you have to 50 00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.400 watch a video. It's very unique. So it actually goes up and down 51 00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:10.879 inside the frame. Yep. Okay, And you can do that with other 52 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:15.159 shape windows shut like a shutter you can put in. You can make a 53 00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:18.319 shutter. What about those oval windows, you know, the big egg shaped 54 00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:23.079 the oval ones. Yep, we have look at those. We can make 55 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:28.600 something that pretty much any window, Okay, you really can't. Shutters absolutely 56 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.759 can do any shape. You can motorize the tilt, so if it's high 57 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:33.959 up in the air, you can just have a remote look like I'm looking 58 00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:36.680 online, like that is that call it? You call that a trap is 59 00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:41.160 white even though the bottom is flat, right, Okay, Well that one 60 00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:47.199 is uh that has that has a shade in it. Yep. I'm gonna 61 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:50.959 have to see video on that. That's weird. So anyway, three oh 62 00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:54.319 three, seven to one three talk. If you have any questions about anything 63 00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.639 window coverings, you can call or or not. I mean, Brenda's here 64 00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:00.839 just to say hi and let's go to the phone. Okay, let's do 65 00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:02.879 that. Let's talk to Don Don. What's going on with you?

What about you, what's going on with you? Man? You 69 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:21.319 did you have a stolen car? Okay, that's a little better, So 70 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:28.319 I guess I'll started beginning. My car was stolen on May thirty first, 71 00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:32.680 and I reported it to the Rarea police, which I turned over to the 72 00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:39.000 Gymno, police didn't realize my checkbook was in the car until Monday, the 73 00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:43.920 seventeenth of June and a check hit my account for eight hundred and seventy five 74 00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:48.399 dollars and twenty six cents made out to this guy I don't know having any 75 00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:51.759 idea? Is only okay? Hold on? Is it only one bad check 76 00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:56.920 so far? Yeah, it's only one check. I went in reported it 77 00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:00.639 to the Chase bank that Now, did you support it when it was stolen? 78 00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.439 No, I didn't realize that the checkbook was in there. I just 79 00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:11.560 I was just didn't remember it being in there. How much is it for 80 00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:15.800 eight hundred and seventy five dollars and twenty six cents? And who is it 81 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:18.959 made out to? Do you want me to say that on it on the 82 00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:27.519 radio? Yep? Okay, so is George or Jorge Olive us O l 83 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:32.720 ib As and he cast it through Wills Fargo, and I think the way 84 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:36.839 it looks, he cast it through a knap on your phone because there's no 85 00:06:36.920 --> 00:06:41.680 ID or anything on the check because if you go cash it at the bank, 86 00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:44.480 they asked for ID right in on this. What does your bank say 87 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:46.399 they're going to do about it? The check? What's that? What is 88 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.040 your bank? What does your bank say they're going to do about it? 89 00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:54.279 Well, I've been fighting with them the first when I first reported it on 90 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:59.759 the on the seventeenth or eighteenth, on the way I had to go into 91 00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:03.560 the banks or yea, yeah, okay, But but what are they saying 92 00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:05.399 about it? Man? Are they saying they're going to help you out? 93 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:11.040 They said that they had three to five days, and on the fifth day 94 00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:14.759 I had scheduled another appointment to go in and talk to them. And now 95 00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:16.680 they said they have ten days. Well they're ten days are up today. 96 00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:25.199 Who's your bank chase? Okay, So they haven't told you what they're gonna 97 00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:28.439 do. Nope, they have not told me yet what they're gonna do. 98 00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.279 Normally they don't charge that you're not responsible for fraud. Yeah, they want 99 00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:38.000 you to know about it, but still that they you know, even though 100 00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:42.959 banks don't tell us this, they want us to believe that now that things 101 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:46.279 are automated, that they don't have to check signatures, but they do. 102 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:55.279 They still have us do signature cards at banks. I don't signature check handwriting 103 00:07:55.759 --> 00:08:01.360 isn't even close to my handwriting. And we've all had well, I had 104 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.800 a situation. I don't even know how they got a check of mine where 105 00:08:05.839 --> 00:08:09.480 they my business account was tapped. The bank made it right, of course, 106 00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:13.079 we didn't know about it. I don't know what happens when they if 107 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.120 they say to you, well, it was in your car and your car 108 00:08:16.199 --> 00:08:20.959 was stolen, you know, I don't know are they making any noise about 109 00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.720 that. I'm not even sure you have to tell them that. Did you 110 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:28.120 tell them that the checks, the checkbook was in your car? Yes, 111 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:33.159 yeah, okay, you might have hung yourself there. I'm not saying you 112 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.080 should ever, I'm not saying you don I'm not saying you should lie to 113 00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:39.519 them, but I'm not sure it was the greatest thing to tell them. 114 00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:46.399 Okay, but it's too late now they know you that. Okay, So 115 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:50.519 did they make any noise at all that you might be responsible. No, 116 00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:56.799 they haven't said that either, But my feeling is less. They say, 117 00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:01.000 the more I feel like compiny, get nailed for it. That's the way 118 00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:07.480 I'm feeling right now. Yeah, Okay, I don't know. Let's let's 119 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.799 see if we can give this to someone to call over there. Deputy Dollar, 120 00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:15.639 Hey, Kachina is Deputy Dollar around? He is? And so is 121 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.720 Chopper. Are they in the studio? They are? Dollar? What do 122 00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:22.600 you think about this? What do you think the fraud thing is on that? 123 00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:26.840 I know sometimes if you give out a pin number or or somehow, 124 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:28.759 if you're reckless with a pin number, they nail you on it. I 125 00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:35.279 wonder what they would do about this. Yeah, I mean they're still responsible 126 00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.840 to make sure I know signature's match. But I mean, in today's world, 127 00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:45.960 there's millions of checks going through the bank every day. We can try 128 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:50.120 and see what that's. Okay, let's let's see what they say. We're 129 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:56.000 going to come back to Martin about lazy Days RV and we'll see what that 130 00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:01.919 issue is.

So according to 147 00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:39.360 what I'm reading about the law, that bank has a responsibility even in an 148 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:46.519 automated system to check signatures. And banks are skating right now. They're fooling 149 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:50.840 people into thinking that with an automated system they don't have that responsibility anymore. 150 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:58.279 But they do. They absolutely have the responsibility to check signatures. Now, 151 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.799 if we don't have any luck with Chase, I suggest you're taking the small 152 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:07.320 claims court for that amount, and I think he'll win. If you can 153 00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:09.960 show that the check is not even close to your signature, I think you'll 154 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:15.960 win.

In twenty four 170 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:16.639 thousand, we were working with Lazy DRV and you know they you know, 171 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:18.919 we we bought you know, we already paid them off. We bought them. 172 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:24.519 So five yeah, total sixty nine thousand, four hundred is what we 173 00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:30.240 paid for the two thousand and eight. If hold on, you bought so 174 00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:35.519 so you paid, you paid Holmus sixty nine grand and you bought four hundred 175 00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:41.279 what's that?

And you bought 176 00:13:41.320 --> 00:13:46.360 a used one, yes from them with you know litt miles diesel, like 177 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:50.639 thirty four thousand miles not used too much, okay? And what kind was 178 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:56.639 it? It's a two thousand and eight at Tesca, a thirty seven footer 179 00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.200 like a big charter bus. I know, what you're talking about? Yeah, 180 00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:05.120 okay, and so what about it? So, so you know we 181 00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:11.320 paid for it on paid in full July the eighteenth, Is that right, 182 00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:15.879 honey? Yeah? Yeah, Aba yeah, April April eighteenth. I'm sorry, 183 00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:18.679 Apri eighteenth eighteen. No, No, I want to know the date 184 00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:20.960 of purchase. I don't care when you paid it off. What's the date 185 00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:26.159 of purchase? April eighteenth? Okay, So what's going on? So then 186 00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:30.480 you know they went through the maintenance and then we wanted a washer and dryer 187 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.440 in there, so I paid another three thousand cash and they said it would 188 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:39.039 take a few days and that didn't happen. We already had plans to build. 189 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:43.840 I want to take my wife to uh, you paid an extra three 190 00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:50.440 grand? Yeah for a washy get well? When they didn't do it, 191 00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.279 did you get your money back? No? They kept possession of it. 192 00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:58.840 And then no, Here's what I'm going to ask martin a very simple question. 193 00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:03.320 Are they a few are they going to eventually do a washer and dryer? 194 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.639 Or are they simply saying you paid three thousand dollars for nothing? I 195 00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.840 need to know the obvious. What are they saying about not fulfilling that three 196 00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:16.679 thousand dollars deal for the washing. No, don't know. They are already 197 00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:20.000 they installed it. They installed Well, you said you didn't get it, 198 00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:22.279 okay, So so that has nothing to do with the story. Then tell 199 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:26.399 tell me what you're calling about. So, so here it is. You 200 00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:31.440 know, it was it was Mother's Day. You know, we had reservations 201 00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.919 and we said emails and up in a Yellowstone and we had to cancel that 202 00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.639 because they said the RV is not ready. So it was delayed. Was 203 00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:46.840 it delayed in delivery or what? What delayed? What delayed it because the 204 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.720 hydra well they said because they didn't have the parts and the washing and dryer 205 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.480 wasn't ready you know, to be you know, to take it. So 206 00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.399 we said, okay, Martin, Martin, you just whispered something hydraulics. 207 00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.639 Let me ask you something. You took delivery of the RV on April eighteenth, 208 00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:07.720 twenty twenty four, or is that when you bought it. That's when 209 00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:10.759 we bought it. We haven't took possession of it yet. We haven't bought 210 00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:15.000 Okay, when you bought it on April eighteenth, twenty twenty four, there 211 00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.960 were problems they needed to fix before you took delivery. I'm not talking about 212 00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:26.519 the washer dryer. Were there other problems noted? It was no, And 213 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:32.080 what happened was we did the inspection in the final walkthrough, and their lead 214 00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:37.919 mechanic DJ told us that the leveling hydraulic system, which is a huge package, 215 00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:41.600 is not working. It's not leveling self leveling automatically, and then he 216 00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:45.600 showed me a video of what could happen if it doesn't level. Okay, 217 00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:48.080 let me ask you this. You were buying this as is? Is that 218 00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:55.559 correct? Yes? Yeah? Did you do the final walkthrough before you bought 219 00:16:55.559 --> 00:17:00.600 it or after you bought it as is? Oh? No, they do 220 00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:03.799 it after you know you after you know after and it's ready to go. 221 00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:06.559 They checked it out. Well, your your attorney's on the line and he's 222 00:17:06.599 --> 00:17:11.079 going to tell you. If you buy something as is and then do a 223 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:14.720 walk through, Oh, I don't understand it. What good is that? 224 00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:19.079 Oh? Well, because the walk through is done at the end before they 225 00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.920 let you drive it off the lot. Yeah, but it's done after you 226 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:30.200 bought it as is. Yeah yep. Well okay, did you at any 227 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.440 time have this checked out before you bought it? Listen, I want you 228 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:37.640 to know somebody, Martin, I'm trying to find a hook to help you. 229 00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:42.200 I'm not trying to trick you. Here's the deal. I understand an 230 00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:48.160 RV, just like a car, is as is, or I should say 231 00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.640 as represented, but you have to prove it was represented in a certain way. 232 00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:57.039 What you're telling me is you bought something as is, then did a 233 00:17:57.079 --> 00:18:02.680 walk through and found a pro problem with the self leveling system. Is that 234 00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:07.519 right? The way they do it at Lazy RV is is they do a 235 00:18:07.559 --> 00:18:12.759 final inspection, but it never passed the lead the main mechanic. Did they 236 00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:23.759 do the final inspection after you bought it or before you bought it? I 237 00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:26.960 don't understand, sir. Okay, here's what I'm going to say. Here's 238 00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:30.359 what I want to know, and I'm going to go on. I'm going 239 00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:33.799 to take a break, and you ask your attorney. You bought that thing 240 00:18:33.240 --> 00:18:37.279 and then they did a final inspection? Or did they do the final inspection 241 00:18:37.480 --> 00:18:41.240 first and then you bought it with a promise. I don't know what you're 242 00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:45.759 telling me, because if you bought it, you bought it, and if 243 00:18:45.799 --> 00:18:48.799 they want to fix it, they can fix it. But I or did 244 00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.240 you buy it with a warranty. I need to know what we can do 245 00:18:52.319 --> 00:18:55.839 to go after them. And by the way, Lazy Days is a sponsor, 246 00:18:56.119 --> 00:18:59.279 but I don't care if they're a sponsor. They're good people. They'll 247 00:18:59.319 --> 00:19:03.480 fix something they did something wrong. But if you bought something as is, 248 00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:07.119 I don't know what's going to go on. I think it's unfair if you 249 00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.880 never took delivery, and you would think logically they would fix it for you, 250 00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:15.000 especially if they said, hey, you know they have some kind of 251 00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:21.880 certified used or something. But I don't know the conditions with which you bought 252 00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:23.559 it. So hold on. It will come back to you. Ask your 253 00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:27.759 attorney ask them what I'm asking you. Did you buy it as is then 254 00:19:27.799 --> 00:19:33.039 they inspected it? Or did you buy it and then and with promises with 255 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:37.759 a warranty? Or did they do the inspection before you bought it? And 256 00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:41.880 can you get your money back? These are all important questions. I'm Tom 257 00:19:41.920 --> 00:19:51.440 Martino Moore coming up.

So Martin Wilke, Now, uh, we're uh did you 266 00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:40.359 Martin? Did you so? So? Did you talk to your attorney? 267 00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:44.599 I need to know. I need to know the conditions in which you bought 268 00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:48.680 the RV. Did you buy the RV as is I have it exactly? 269 00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:53.240 How it was? So good? Tell me Marty, Marty Jank Dorking Chambers, 270 00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:57.559 York Evans and Associations. I don't care about that long liity of names. 271 00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:02.039 I just want to know what's going on. Okay. So what we 272 00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:04.319 did was we did a walk through through the RV. We looked at a 273 00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:08.359 couple of them and this one was one that we liked. So we did 274 00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:12.839 a walk through and then they found this problem of this problem, this problem, 275 00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:17.160 this problem, and they said, we'll fix these things, but you 276 00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:22.039 got to you know, purchase first before we put time and money into Okay. 277 00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:25.519 And did you get that in writing that they were going to fix those 278 00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:29.119 things, that you noted those things? Yeah, yes we did. We 279 00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:33.119 did a checklist to walk through with them. Okay. And they said, 280 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:37.079 and they said, it's called in a in a deal like this, it's 281 00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:41.519 called a we O statement. Did they do some kind of we owe statements 282 00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:44.680 saying what they needed to fix? Yeah? See, I just couldn't. 283 00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.279 You know, It's not what I do. Tom. You know, I'm 284 00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:51.039 a fair guy. I'm Martin Martin. Let's tuck, Martin. Let's not 285 00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:55.680 go there. I'm not asking you anything except did you get in writing what 286 00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:59.799 they're going to do? Yes? We did? Good, good, good, 287 00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.079 good good. Okay. So where do we stand today? What do 288 00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:07.880 you need help with? Okay? So, so the mechanic, one of 289 00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:11.759 the mechanics, Chad and DJ called me yesterday right after I talked to Mark, 290 00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:15.079 you know from your show. Okay, you talked to Mark off the 291 00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:22.079 air. Yeah. Good. Then the Lazy Day Chad and DJ called me 292 00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:26.400 up and said, Martin, oh good, so Mark probably did Mark call 293 00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.039 Lazy Days for you? No, not yet well, okay, they just 294 00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:34.000 happened to call you after you talk to Mark, Yeah, to find out 295 00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:37.960 what the status was going on. Yeah, and he told me that, 296 00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:41.119 you know, we got the little bad news. He goes, we have 297 00:22:41.240 --> 00:22:48.400 to order more parts. Okay, might come in July fifteenth, And I 298 00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:51.400 said, well, what what is it? Now? Let me ask you 299 00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:56.759 something, Martin. So Martin, it's so this issue. The main issue 300 00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:00.240 here is you bought the damn thing, you want to use it. It's 301 00:23:00.359 --> 00:23:06.160 not so much they're refusing to fix it, right, Yeah, they just 302 00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:08.799 have possession of and I already made for No. I get what you're saying. 303 00:23:10.160 --> 00:23:15.480 I understand completely. Now how long do they say it's going to be 304 00:23:17.960 --> 00:23:21.079 Well, it started off in April the eighteenth, and now they just called 305 00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:25.799 me and said that July fifteenth they might have the party in. And I 306 00:23:25.880 --> 00:23:29.160 asked them, well, what part is it that you're ordering now in order 307 00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:32.200 to it to be safe in order to drive off the lot, because they 308 00:23:32.279 --> 00:23:33.400 told me, once you drive it off the lot, it has is. 309 00:23:33.920 --> 00:23:37.400 But the mechanic told me I can't let you drive this off the lot because 310 00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:41.400 it's not safe. The hydraulic system is not working. Of uh, you 311 00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.880 seriously goes yes, Martin, Martin, let's stay on track. What are 312 00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:49.319 they going to do? Are they They're going to fix it? Now, 313 00:23:51.079 --> 00:23:55.160 here's the deal. Whatever they promised to fix, they need to fix. 314 00:23:55.880 --> 00:23:59.839 But here's something you need to know. And your attorney's still on the line, 315 00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:04.359 right, No, he had to hang up. Okay, Well he's 316 00:24:04.440 --> 00:24:07.960 going to tell you this. Whatever they promised to fix, they need to 317 00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:12.839 fix. But you have to understand you're not buying a new RV. Okay, 318 00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:19.519 so when you drive away, they're kind of right, it's your deal. 319 00:24:21.559 --> 00:24:22.799 Yep. We haven't drove it, we haven't took possession of it. 320 00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:26.160 I get it, Martin, But listen, Martin, I still want you 321 00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:33.440 to hear what I'm saying. While it's there. They don't have to fix 322 00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:41.680 anything they did not promise to fix. I'm not sticking up for them. 323 00:24:41.720 --> 00:24:44.960 I'm telling you how it is. Here's what I think you should do. 324 00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.079 I think you should get your money back and move on. That's what I 325 00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:52.200 think you want, Tom Martine, that's all we want. I'm killing you. 326 00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.720 I cannot. I don't know why they would not give your money back 327 00:24:56.799 --> 00:25:00.400 and let you move on. I mean, we just want to our money 328 00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:03.359 back so I can pay the Navy Credit Union back the loan that my wife 329 00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:07.400 got and then get my cash back. We don't want it no more to 330 00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:10.720 it's not safe in the mechanic. Well no, now, Martin, Martin, 331 00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:15.880 Martin Martin, Yeah, don't tell me you don't want it back because 332 00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:21.640 it's not safe, because you're going to defeat your own argument. They're fixing 333 00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:26.119 the damn thing now to make it safe. You want it back because it's 334 00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:32.960 taking too long. Yeah, there's a difference, Martin. Well, you 335 00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:37.519 can't say to me, I want my money back because it's not safe and 336 00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:40.960 I'm never going to trust it because you're the one that bought it. Okay, 337 00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:45.160 you bought it. You bought a two thousand and eight RV. They 338 00:25:45.319 --> 00:25:48.359 noted problems. You were there when they noted them. You bought the thing, 339 00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:52.400 and they said they would fix it, and you agreed to that. 340 00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:57.559 Okay. But what you probably did not agree to is wait all summer for 341 00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:03.240 the damn thing exactly, Tom. That's so I'm on your side, but 342 00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:10.319 I'm trying to refine your argument. What the hell are you paying your attorney 343 00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:11.359 for? Let me ask you that, what are you paying them for is 344 00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:18.440 he telling you this stuff? My attorney's not charging me. Okay, so 345 00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:22.240 he's not your attorney. Listen, just hold on a sec bro hold on. 346 00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:26.000 I want to I want to know what Mark said to them, or 347 00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:29.200 if he called them. He has a relationship, he knows somebody there. 348 00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:30.839 If he can't call, we'll get someone else to call. Hold on, 349 00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:36.960 because this is really, this is really something that they should just cut, 350 00:26:37.079 --> 00:26:40.880 bait and run if they can't get the dang thing to you. I think 351 00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:42.960 ninety days has it been, for God's sakes, has it been April, 352 00:26:44.039 --> 00:26:48.160 May, June? Jelan. I mean, come on, we'll we'll see 353 00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:51.640 what we can do with them. Okay, hold on three oh three seven 354 00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:56.640 one three talk three oh three seven one three eight two five five. So 355 00:26:56.720 --> 00:27:00.319 I'm getting a few texts here I want to go over. And it has 356 00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:12.240 to do with the regulations. The Supreme Court ruled that federal agencies can't make 357 00:27:12.359 --> 00:27:17.640 rules. No, they didn't. They did not say that. What they 358 00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:22.519 said is that the federal agencies can have rules. But when it comes to 359 00:27:22.759 --> 00:27:29.720 interpretation of whether the rule is just or fair, or is it making law 360 00:27:29.960 --> 00:27:34.480 or is it overreaching, you have to go to court it's not up to 361 00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:42.799 the agency any longer to decide within itself if their self regulation is sufficient. 362 00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:48.640 You see a lot of times they would make a ruling and then you'd go 363 00:27:48.839 --> 00:27:56.000 before a hearing officer within that organization. They were ruling on themselves as to 364 00:27:56.079 --> 00:28:00.519 whether what they did was just. Courts are saying no, no, no, 365 00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:07.039 no no. They don't have legislative power, they don't have judicial power. 366 00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:11.400 They do have power to enforce and make law and rules based on the 367 00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:18.559 law they do. Don't think they can't make federal rules. They can, 368 00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:23.559 and thank goodness, they can. We can't assume all federal agencies are overreaching 369 00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:30.640 now personally, do you know why I believe this has come to be Now 370 00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:33.880 there's some undercurrent here. Although it was brought by who was it brought by? 371 00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:40.519 It was brought by some organization based on something. It wasn't based on 372 00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:44.440 what I think was the real issue. What do you think the real issue 373 00:28:44.599 --> 00:28:48.119 was? If you had to guess, Come on, deputies, come on, 374 00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:52.200 what do you think? What do you think the real underlying issue was 375 00:28:52.759 --> 00:28:57.759 about the federal agencies overreach. I'm going to talk about it company, Come 376 00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:02.880 on, YouTubers, anybody let me know what you think. Please don't let 377 00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:04.720 me down.

Go ahead, Okay, 388 00:30:08.160 --> 00:30:12.359 that was Paul. He said he had a comment. Was that him? 389 00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:18.039 All right? Here? I know, so let's talk to Sean. Was 390 00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:21.759 a question about appraisal, and I'm going to talk about the real reason for 391 00:30:21.880 --> 00:30:23.480 this. I'm just going to tell you right now what it is and then 392 00:30:23.519 --> 00:30:27.319 we'll go into details. I believe it was frustration. I know the case 393 00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:32.720 wasn't brought over COVID, but I'll bet you that they sure as hell were 394 00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:40.519 thinking this because during COVID these agencies were crazy, and I mean bat crap 395 00:30:40.799 --> 00:30:47.119 crazy totally. I mean they were yes, mass no mask, this mask, 396 00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:49.440 that mask, and then this that and the other thing, and some 397 00:30:49.799 --> 00:30:52.839 in the New Yorks you can open, you can do this. You got 398 00:30:52.920 --> 00:30:55.240 to show a card. You don't have to show card. They were like 399 00:30:55.359 --> 00:31:00.400 the Gestapo, for God's sakes, and that's not going to happen anymore, 400 00:31:00.680 --> 00:31:03.200 not under this one. Hey, go ahead, Paul, you have a 401 00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:08.799 comment. Yeah, the Chevron case, as I recall, was original, 402 00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:15.759 started from some fishermen. The Agency for your Age she decided they wanted a 403 00:31:15.880 --> 00:31:23.440 push that the fishermen had to pay to have uh inspectors on their boats basically 404 00:31:23.599 --> 00:31:29.200 full time. It was obscurred and uh so that's where it started. But 405 00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:32.839 this has been a long, long, long time coming. I remember a 406 00:31:32.920 --> 00:31:36.759 big yeah, but that's where it started. But that wasn't the most recent 407 00:31:36.920 --> 00:31:42.440 case that brought it to a head. Well, that's that's the one. 408 00:31:42.519 --> 00:31:48.680 The Supreme Court ruled on No, they ruled on that doctrine. They ruled 409 00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:52.960 on that doctrine. But it wasn't Chevron who brought that case about their that 410 00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:59.359 doctrine. No, there were that brought the thing. You mean that that 411 00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.839 brought the issoo to the court or right do right ouction is in law. 412 00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:09.920 But the I mean, there were a lot of two A cases involving Chevron, 413 00:32:10.440 --> 00:32:15.160 and I remember a big, big thing some years ago. I know 414 00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:19.119 what they call it. You know, basically it had to do with regulating 415 00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:22.480 water on people's property. Here, if you had a little piss pond, 416 00:32:22.880 --> 00:32:27.920 a little something on your water, a little bit of water, wetlands property, 417 00:32:28.400 --> 00:32:30.640 they wanted to regulate your old land what you could do with it. 418 00:32:31.160 --> 00:32:34.839 So, you know, I don't know what you're trying to get at. 419 00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:39.759 There was a whole host of agency overreach for you many of course, that's 420 00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:44.279 right, that's right. What I was trying to do is and I can't 421 00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:49.680 find it the case that brought that to a head. Chevron didn't go back 422 00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:52.400 and appealed to nineteen eighty four ruling. I mean, somebody brought it to 423 00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:55.599 the head. And I'm trying to figure out what that latest case was. 424 00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:02.440 That's all. That's I don't recall it right offhand what the case was, 425 00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:07.359 but I will, I'll find it. But whatever it was, it had 426 00:33:07.400 --> 00:33:13.519 to do with the Chevron doctrine, exactly what you said, and they struck 427 00:33:13.559 --> 00:33:16.440 it down. And now you can't just make a ruling and then rule on 428 00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:22.240 your own ruling. It goes a little beyond that because people were already able 429 00:33:22.359 --> 00:33:29.119 to suit into court, but the difference element of it is gone. So 430 00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:36.400 courts, even though somebody might have a legitimate argument, the court was forced 431 00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:42.200 they couldn't just do what courts are supposed to do. They were forced to 432 00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:47.200 abide by whatever the agency disment. Yeah, so what they're saying is the 433 00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:55.960 agency can't make its own determinations. Well, it's more than that. You 434 00:33:57.160 --> 00:34:00.480 keep saying it's more than that, and then you repeat exactly what I said. 435 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:07.279 They're saying the agencies can't make law. Yes, the agencies can't make 436 00:34:07.400 --> 00:34:10.679 l on but the difference between what you and I are talking about is that 437 00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:16.760 it wasn't just a matter of people only being limited to talk to the agency 438 00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:22.320 about their arguments. They could literally sue in court, but the courts had 439 00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:29.639 to abide. But what the agency had ruled exactly That's what I am saying. 440 00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:34.079 They can no longer do that. The purview is now with the courts. 441 00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:38.280 Well, okay, I'm not going to restate this over and over and 442 00:34:38.360 --> 00:34:43.880 over. We're both saying the same thing. The purview is now with the 443 00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:50.000 courts to decide, not for the interagencies to decide. They don't come to 444 00:34:50.119 --> 00:34:53.840 court with evidence. They come to court with an opinion. And the case, 445 00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:59.159 by the way, was something called Lower Bride Enterprises versus something or other's 446 00:34:59.400 --> 00:35:02.840 the Department of Commerce and that was the most recent case that brought that up. 447 00:35:04.960 --> 00:35:07.960 Go with a sure thing Denver's Best roofer Excel Roofing dot com.

Yes, sir, 461 00:36:25.079 --> 00:36:29.559 can you give me a referral? I'm looked for in appraisal on some vacant 462 00:36:29.639 --> 00:36:34.159 land. The land is in Lake County, Colorado, currently owned by family, 463 00:36:34.320 --> 00:36:37.039 and I'm looking to purchase it and wanted to get an appraisal done first. 464 00:36:37.639 --> 00:36:42.800 Just want to demand your recommendation for a contact. Vacant land is a 465 00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:47.599 little different animal than regular land. I'm interested to me then a regular property? 466 00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:54.239 Is it vacant land multi acres or vacant land a lot about ten acres? 467 00:36:55.039 --> 00:37:00.239 Okay? Is it in a subdivision or is it unincorporated or is it 468 00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:05.199 just out where? Tell me about the lands? Actually a mining claim? 469 00:37:05.920 --> 00:37:09.800 It is a patented mining claim. It's it's I guess in a remote area. 470 00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:15.239 It's off of Western Pass. You're it's going to be very difficult to 471 00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:21.960 get someone to do a mining claim. Okay, right now, I'm not 472 00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:27.199 saying it's impossible. I'm going to check with some of our contacts, but 473 00:37:28.199 --> 00:37:37.159 see those see mining claims become almost a shot in the dark, I guess 474 00:37:37.000 --> 00:37:42.280 unless there are comps. Here's what I want to ask you. Why the 475 00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:45.400 appraisal. Is it because you don't want to pay too much? Or they 476 00:37:45.679 --> 00:37:49.119 they're insisting on it? Tell me why? Or are you getting a loan? 477 00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:52.679 Tell me about it? Nope, just looking to establish a fair market 478 00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:59.559 value today, Okay, Okay, Then what you can do is until we 479 00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:04.119 can find someone, you can go to county records or a title company and 480 00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:08.599 just pay it's not much money, and ask the title company for similar mining 481 00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:13.719 claims that have changed hands. Now, okay, help me here, because 482 00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:16.599 I haven't I've never purchased a mining claim. Do they involve a title of 483 00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:23.119 any kind when you buy them? I don't know, I would assume so, 484 00:38:23.360 --> 00:38:25.880 I mean, I'm not purchasing it for the purpose of the claim, 485 00:38:27.039 --> 00:38:30.159 right I'm purchasing it simply for the purpose of the land. But the you 486 00:38:30.239 --> 00:38:31.320 know, well, I understand that, but in order to do it, 487 00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:36.320 you have to convey titles somehow. I don't know how it's done. I 488 00:38:36.480 --> 00:38:39.960 know nothing about mining claims and how title is conveyed. I just don't know. 489 00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:44.679 We can find out, we can ask someone. But I thought, 490 00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:47.719 if you're looking to buy it, are there other mining claims in the area. 491 00:38:50.239 --> 00:38:54.079 There are, yes, Okay, you can find out if they've been 492 00:38:54.199 --> 00:39:00.320 conveyed and for how much and when, and establish some kind of a least 493 00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:04.039 an idea. That's all public record. But if you don't know how to 494 00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:08.719 look for it, maybe a title company could help. Okay, I'm assuming 495 00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:12.920 I could find that on the Lake County Assessor or through the Lake County Assessor. 496 00:39:13.079 --> 00:39:15.840 Well, yeah, usually that. Now again, I'm not I'm professing 497 00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:20.599 my ignorance when it comes to mining claims. If this was a piece of 498 00:39:20.719 --> 00:39:25.239 property, all of that would be apropos I'm not sure. I'm really not. 499 00:39:25.480 --> 00:39:30.079 When you have a mining claim, what do you have? I don't 500 00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:31.679 know. I mean, I don't know if it's federal, I don't know 501 00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:36.079 if it's state. I don't know if it's county, but I'm going to 502 00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:39.360 ask someone and we're going to figure it out. I don't even think our 503 00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:43.480 real estate attorney would know, but you know, Kachina, you can ask 504 00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:47.599 in general if he knows, if he doesn't find but let's maybe we can 505 00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:52.880 ask our listeners. And we have smart listeners, even my YouTube morons might 506 00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:59.480 know, so we can figure it out and say, hey, what do 507 00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:01.679 you do with mining claim? Have you sold one? How is title conveyed? 508 00:40:02.039 --> 00:40:07.000 Because what you want to do is look for comps. You're the best 509 00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:12.920 indication of value. The best always are comps, no matter what. If 510 00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:17.119 you find similar claims in similar areas, you're going to establish a value. 511 00:40:17.440 --> 00:40:22.519 Now you can start on the county level, but call a title company in 512 00:40:22.599 --> 00:40:25.280 that area. Are there any title companies you can think? And then say, 513 00:40:25.440 --> 00:40:31.159 hey, have you ever conveyed title or ownership of mining claims? And 514 00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:37.039 if I wanted to get demographic information just for you know, for how much 515 00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:40.920 they're worth and what they've conveyed for where do I go for that? Title 516 00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:46.079 companies are very helpful and and perhaps we can find out for you too. 517 00:40:46.199 --> 00:40:51.360 You can keep listening and we'll put out the word. Okay, and so 518 00:40:52.079 --> 00:40:55.159 do you question, Yeah, go ahead, go ahead on the you know, 519 00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:59.760 on the assessor's website. Obviously there's an assessed value in a market value. 520 00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:02.039 How accurate do you think that market value would be on someone? Well, 521 00:41:02.320 --> 00:41:07.599 that's a good question. Some assessors they tell you what year it's based 522 00:41:07.639 --> 00:41:15.559 on. They tell you so you can extrapolate from there. What is when 523 00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:21.320 they say market value? Do they say as of a certain date? Yes, 524 00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:22.880 and that was a I don't know the exact date, but it was 525 00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:29.800 twenty twenty three. Okay, what's the market value? They mentioned? Roughly 526 00:41:29.880 --> 00:41:35.920 forty k Okay? Oh, what I want to do? Kashina? I 527 00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:45.199 want to call because he deals with tax, taxes and research. I want 528 00:41:45.239 --> 00:41:49.679 to call one of my contacts in real estate. I'm going to put the 529 00:41:49.760 --> 00:41:52.360 name up here. Okay, I don't know if you have the number, 530 00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:55.199 but I'm going to put it down. I don't want people call him that. 531 00:41:55.440 --> 00:41:59.079 Do you see that name in red eye put down under show notes? 532 00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:05.119 Okay, do you know who that is? He's with and he is in 533 00:42:05.360 --> 00:42:07.639 I believe anyway, we've talked to him before. Let me look for his 534 00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:10.840 number and I'll put it up there. So if you hang on or you 535 00:42:10.920 --> 00:42:14.719 can just listen Sean, We'll try to figure this out for you. Okay, 536 00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:21.360 okay, thanks love for sure. Sure, Christine, what's going on? 537 00:42:21.559 --> 00:42:24.840 Christine? Hi? Tom? How are you good? What's going on 538 00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:31.920 with you? So? I have a twenty sixteen Hundai Santa Fe Sport that 539 00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:37.920 through both Pro Auto Care, our local mechanic as well as through shomp Hyundai 540 00:42:38.519 --> 00:42:44.559 has been tested and determined that it's got excessive oil use going on with the 541 00:42:44.639 --> 00:42:51.840 engine. It's a two thousand and sixteen yes, okay, so keeps going 542 00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:57.599 roughly nine roughly ninety thousand miles. We bought it as a certified pre owned 543 00:42:57.719 --> 00:43:01.719 car, and we're told we'd have the balance of the original Hyundai you know, 544 00:43:01.840 --> 00:43:05.639 ten year, one hundred thousand mile warrant. Yeah, uh huh? 545 00:43:06.599 --> 00:43:09.400 Did you get it now? Yeah? Go ahead, no, go ahead, 546 00:43:09.400 --> 00:43:14.440 I'm listening. So, as it turns out, the car is at 547 00:43:14.559 --> 00:43:20.159 Champ Hyundai right now. It's been torn apart. They took photos and everything, 548 00:43:20.960 --> 00:43:25.880 and the warranty company apparently is not the original corporate warranty. It is 549 00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:32.599 an extended warranty through Hyundai. Is how they're saying that this oil usuedd just 550 00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:37.440 being claimed the problem. Well, hold on, hold on, don't they 551 00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:40.760 have a drive train normally that's that goes ten years. I don't understand what 552 00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:45.760 you're talking about. An extended parent. See. Apparently, because we're a 553 00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:51.840 second owner on this car, you don't get the original Hyundai warranty, although 554 00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:54.800 that's how they sell it to you. They tell you that you have the 555 00:43:54.960 --> 00:43:58.559 balance. You know, you get the remainder of the ten year, one 556 00:43:58.599 --> 00:44:02.239 hundred thousand mile But that's done through a Okay, all right, whatever it 557 00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:07.840 is. It's backed by Hyundai. Right, yes, yes, that shouldn't 558 00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:12.480 matter if it's covered. It's covered, right or isn't it right? Well, 559 00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:17.039 they're saying that it's covered, except for we do not get the option 560 00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:22.320 of a loaner car under the because it's not under the corporate warranty. So 561 00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:28.440 we have the choice of either renting. Well, they would never extend a 562 00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:35.079 loaner to a second owner ever. Right, So we are currently paying about 563 00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:38.440 eighty eight dollars per day for a rental car under our own we've rented it 564 00:44:38.559 --> 00:44:45.599 ourselves while this repair is happening. The problem is they are back ordered on 565 00:44:45.880 --> 00:44:51.440 the replacement re manufactured engines that they are going to be providing with no date 566 00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:54.440 in sight for when you're actually going to get though a brand new you're going 567 00:44:54.480 --> 00:44:59.960 to get a newly manufactured, re manufactured engine. It's a re manufactured engine. 568 00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:01.599 What we're supposed to be getting And what's out of pocket on that? 569 00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:07.679 If there is any I think there's no out of pocket on that, except 570 00:45:07.719 --> 00:45:13.280 we did have to pay the initial six hundred dollars costs for testing the engine 571 00:45:13.400 --> 00:45:16.320 to determine it. You know what will That really sucks that they're backwatered. 572 00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:20.960 It really does. And they're not the only ones. It's happening all over 573 00:45:21.039 --> 00:45:28.679 the country, and your consequential losses are never going to be covered under warranty. 574 00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:32.719 And I don't know what to tell you because you're not the only one. 575 00:45:32.840 --> 00:45:37.320 This is a this is an impossible problem to solve because it's never happened 576 00:45:37.360 --> 00:45:42.519 before. There's not been class action suits. There's not because there's not enough 577 00:45:42.559 --> 00:45:46.719 people in any one class. It's just the weirdest thing. People are without 578 00:45:46.800 --> 00:45:52.159 their cars for all kinds of reasons, and they're renting cars or they're borrowing 579 00:45:52.320 --> 00:45:57.920 cars, but you can't hold if you're going to try. Let's just put 580 00:45:57.960 --> 00:46:01.519 it this way. I think it'll be a cold day in hell to try 581 00:46:01.639 --> 00:46:09.159 to hold Hyundai responsible for your replacement vehicle. Right right, They will reimburse 582 00:46:09.239 --> 00:46:14.760 the cost up to forty dollars a day. That's oh really, I am 583 00:46:14.880 --> 00:46:20.599 shocked. I'm actually shocked at that. But they won't give us that reimbursement 584 00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:25.840 and tell the repair is completed. Goy, how long do they say it's 585 00:46:25.880 --> 00:46:30.159 gonna be? This is terrible. They don't know, they don't know. 586 00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:35.119 There's no date as to when these engines will be available. The other thing 587 00:46:35.280 --> 00:46:40.239 that is there's no date. Yeah, hotly, that's what they're telling us. 588 00:46:40.800 --> 00:46:45.199 We've been in touch with both Hyundai Corporate as well as Chomp Hyundai here 589 00:46:45.400 --> 00:46:50.639 to you know that's working on the repair. So I'm wondering, though at 590 00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:53.719 this point, since we're kind of just bleeding money at this point, do 591 00:46:53.840 --> 00:46:58.199 you think it would be worth just to telling them just put the car back 592 00:46:58.239 --> 00:47:02.280 together again and we'll just drive it and put oil in it when when it 593 00:47:02.360 --> 00:47:06.440 needs oil and then a hell no, you're gonna get oh wait wait, 594 00:47:06.480 --> 00:47:10.119 wait, you mean you mean drive it until the engine comes in. They 595 00:47:10.159 --> 00:47:15.400 won't do that because they said that now that a warranty claims in place, 596 00:47:15.599 --> 00:47:17.800 you're not allowed to put any additional miles on the car, so they won't. 597 00:47:17.840 --> 00:47:22.039 I would never. I would never let them put it back together and 598 00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:27.239 forego an engine. Do you understand when you get that re manufactured engine, 599 00:47:27.639 --> 00:47:32.559 the value of that car is incredible? Okay? So I mean waiting even 600 00:47:32.719 --> 00:47:37.760 though I mean, I can't tell you it is. I can't tell you 601 00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:39.719 that. Only you know that. I mean, obviously, if a replacement 602 00:47:39.800 --> 00:47:45.159 vehicle is necessary and it's costing you a crapload of money, I can't tell 603 00:47:45.199 --> 00:47:49.400 you that. But if it was me, I'm looking at a twenty sixteen, 604 00:47:49.440 --> 00:47:52.000 almost a ten year old car, and I'm going to get a brand 605 00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:59.679 new engine. I mean, when let me ask you something so oh, 606 00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:02.360 Mark is called in Mark is to somewhat of a Hyundai expert. He's owned 607 00:48:02.400 --> 00:48:05.400 so many of them. Mark, what do you have to say about it? 608 00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:12.199 She wanted ninety thousand miles on it, She's gonna get a brand new 609 00:48:12.320 --> 00:48:16.360 engine, and they're paying forty four bucks a day for a rental. I'm 610 00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:22.039 crying in my beer here. Come on, No, I know exactly what 611 00:48:22.199 --> 00:48:24.159 you're saying, and she'll have like a new car for goodness, sakes. 612 00:48:24.280 --> 00:48:30.840 I know, why are you paying eighty eight bucks for rental I'll tell you 613 00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:35.679 that's a that's a good point. Why are you paying forty eighty eight bucks? 614 00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:39.960 Because, as you know, Tom, the loss of use issue with 615 00:48:40.159 --> 00:48:46.199 rental cars that if you don't take their insurance then you can be liable for 616 00:48:46.360 --> 00:48:50.760 the loss of use of that rental car issue. That's no, no, 617 00:48:50.960 --> 00:48:53.159 no, no, no, Christine, you are nuts. If you're taking 618 00:48:53.480 --> 00:49:00.360 their insurance. Your insurance usually covers loss of use. I think we've checked 619 00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:04.599 and they don't. But I can double check again. And Christine, who's 620 00:49:04.639 --> 00:49:07.280 your insurance carrier? See, this is a whole different ballgame. Now, 621 00:49:07.360 --> 00:49:13.760 this has nothing to do with anyone. You're buying forty dollars worth of insurance 622 00:49:13.800 --> 00:49:17.320 for God's sakes, I mean, come on, I mean, Christine, 623 00:49:19.400 --> 00:49:25.679 let's use common sense here. Who's your insurance carrier? Geiko and what do 624 00:49:25.920 --> 00:49:30.320 Okay, you need to call Compass and get an insurance. I'm serious, 625 00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:34.119 you need to call Compass at least to get a check up to see what 626 00:49:34.280 --> 00:49:37.039 the hell's going on. I mean, if they tell you. And by 627 00:49:37.079 --> 00:49:39.320 the way, loss of use. Okay, I get what you're saying that 628 00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:44.320 your insurance company will pay for damages but not for loss of use. And 629 00:49:44.480 --> 00:49:46.920 you're telling me you had to take out there. What is their insurance costing 630 00:49:46.960 --> 00:49:52.239 you at the rental agency. I think it's about what you were saying. 631 00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:55.239 I think it's about like thirty to forty bucks six for the insurance. It 632 00:49:55.360 --> 00:49:59.360 is the worst insurance. Well, that's the worst coverage you could ever You 633 00:49:59.440 --> 00:50:02.320 could literally really go out and buy your own insurance and just enhance your own 634 00:50:02.360 --> 00:50:07.400 insurance cheaper. I don't understand why you're making that choice. For God's sakes, 635 00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:10.079 I mean, this is absolute. Do you understand what how much that 636 00:50:10.440 --> 00:50:16.239 that insurance is costing? I mean no, I think Mark's right. They 637 00:50:16.320 --> 00:50:22.079 are doing They are doing so much for you. And if you're calling because 638 00:50:22.119 --> 00:50:27.440 they're not paying, you're paying fourteen thousand dollars fourteen thousand, six hundred dollars 639 00:50:27.599 --> 00:50:30.480 annualized for that insurance. I'm sorry, no, no, no, you 640 00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:36.960 need you need to enhance that. I doubt I doubt that they don't pay. 641 00:50:37.280 --> 00:50:42.400 Did did they tell you they will not extend to rental cars and loss 642 00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:47.920 of use? I think I have asked before about the cover of a rental 643 00:50:49.000 --> 00:50:52.320 car. Yes, and for you know, the liability and for the collision 644 00:50:52.360 --> 00:50:55.880 and all that, but not the loss of use peace.

He knows a 660 00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:09.719 lot about different things. I wondered, ED, if you ever came across 661 00:52:09.840 --> 00:52:15.920 mining claims in your time doing tax research. Uh, I'm pretty well familiar 662 00:52:15.960 --> 00:52:22.840 with some of the mining mining claims. What is the actual question? Okay, 663 00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:27.480 well the actual question is? The actual question is this if we can 664 00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:30.360 figure out how title is conveyed? And I found out that it's nothing more 665 00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:37.199 than a quit claim usually unless there's a loan involved. Most banks won't loan 666 00:52:37.280 --> 00:52:40.519 on mining claims, by the way, but if somehow you have a loan, 667 00:52:42.840 --> 00:52:45.079 a quit claim will not get you out of the loan. It just 668 00:52:45.360 --> 00:52:50.679 transfers the property. But in any case, Ed, here's what he wants 669 00:52:50.719 --> 00:52:55.360 to know, basically, comps. How does he find comps if he's Sean, 670 00:52:55.480 --> 00:53:07.840 where is this mining claim? Sean? What county near Leadville? So 671 00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:12.920 if you needed to find comps for that, Ed, because he can't find 672 00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:16.039 an appraiser to do it right, right, you would go back to them, 673 00:53:16.199 --> 00:53:21.480 to the assessor assessor's office and ask for them. Now, that'll take 674 00:53:21.519 --> 00:53:23.679 them a couple of days because they're not easy to find. Oh, they're 675 00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:30.400 not something that is typical. But they'll actually research that for you. Sure, 676 00:53:31.039 --> 00:53:36.559 I have to. Also the lull is that they they are required to 677 00:53:36.639 --> 00:53:42.840 help you. Okay. Now, when they research it, what's to prevent 678 00:53:43.000 --> 00:53:47.480 them from simply using the tax certificate or the appraise, the the the assessment 679 00:53:47.599 --> 00:53:52.760 card that has a market value on it? Is that dependable? No? 680 00:53:54.000 --> 00:54:00.320 Only only only sales are dependable. Okay. So when the assessor puts a 681 00:54:00.400 --> 00:54:07.360 market value on there, what are they basing it on? Ooh, probably 682 00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:12.159 a computer? You mean, like, do you think it has anything to 683 00:54:12.239 --> 00:54:17.440 do with recent sales? Probably not. I've never heard of a tax assessment 684 00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:22.480 and I've never heard of a tax assessment having a market value on there. 685 00:54:22.000 --> 00:54:27.800 Do all the tax assessments have market values written? Yes, but it's usually 686 00:54:27.880 --> 00:54:30.920 extra low and the taxes are only about fifteen or twenty dollars just to handle 687 00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:37.360 paperwork. Okay, So in the eyes of the assessor, it doesn't have 688 00:54:37.400 --> 00:54:44.920 any value. So, but they still have some process. So what you 689 00:54:45.039 --> 00:54:49.199 should do, probably Sean, is what he just said. You go to 690 00:54:49.280 --> 00:54:53.199 the assessor's office and ask them for transfers that have taken place in the last 691 00:54:53.960 --> 00:55:00.159 two or three years. Two years okay, and then you'll get it an 692 00:55:00.239 --> 00:55:04.639 idea. You can average that out. Thank you, Ed Tomlinson. We 693 00:55:04.719 --> 00:55:07.800 really appreciate We really appreciate it. Your your your time. Thank you. 694 00:55:08.880 --> 00:55:15.320 By the way, let's talk to Jeremy over at Compass. Hey, Jeremy, 695 00:55:16.400 --> 00:55:21.079 Hey, Tom, So, Christine is renting a car. She has 696 00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:29.039 Geico insurance. She doesn't believe that her coverage extends to a rental car for 697 00:55:29.440 --> 00:55:36.840 the purposes of loss of use. What that means is, Jeremy, it 698 00:55:36.920 --> 00:55:38.880 might be a little ding in the door, but if it takes them a 699 00:55:39.000 --> 00:55:44.519 week to fix or two or three, you can be popped with loss of 700 00:55:44.719 --> 00:55:51.239 use. What happens in that case? Yeah, No, that she's correct. 701 00:55:51.960 --> 00:55:55.880 Insurance policies are not going to cover the loss of use. And even 702 00:55:57.039 --> 00:56:00.880 even my insurance, even upgraded insurance. You're telling me that when I rent 703 00:56:00.960 --> 00:56:05.440 a car, even though I'm fixing the damage, they can come after me 704 00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:08.440 for loss of use. Correct. Yeah, okay, as long as you 705 00:56:08.440 --> 00:56:14.159 have physical damage coverage, they'll fix whatever the damage is, but they're not 706 00:56:14.280 --> 00:56:17.960 going to pay. They'll argue for you that you know, they have to 707 00:56:19.159 --> 00:56:24.320 prove that, you know they need that they're actually losing the money. But 708 00:56:25.480 --> 00:56:30.840 and Brian and I have actually debated this before. In my opinion, those 709 00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:36.280 contracts are not written for our benefit. So I you could argue that you're 710 00:56:36.320 --> 00:56:42.079 not actually losing money. I don't trust that argument, and so in the 711 00:56:42.239 --> 00:56:45.519 past I would just kind of casually tell people, hey, this is something 712 00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:50.559 to kind of be aware of in the last few years with all the supply 713 00:56:50.719 --> 00:56:54.000 chain issues and just all the issues that we're seeing and how long things can 714 00:56:54.119 --> 00:57:00.960 take. It's you know, depending on obviously the cost of that insurance through 715 00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:06.639 them. It is something to consider because you could get stuck with something. 716 00:57:06.760 --> 00:57:09.440 I had someone look at this the other day. They were renting a car, 717 00:57:09.559 --> 00:57:15.679 and we actually went through the contract and that contract actually limited the loss 718 00:57:15.719 --> 00:57:22.719 of use they can collect up to thirty days, so you know, obviously 719 00:57:22.800 --> 00:57:27.559 they can all vary by this one at least was limiting, but even thirty 720 00:57:27.639 --> 00:57:30.599 days, I mean, that's a lot of money if they're charging you for 721 00:57:30.719 --> 00:57:32.920 that because they can't rent it out, or they're saying they can't rent it 722 00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:38.920 out. Jeremy, when I go and rent a car, I usually buy 723 00:57:39.599 --> 00:57:45.159 a limited amount of insurance from the carrier, even though you guys provide me 724 00:57:45.280 --> 00:57:49.440 with great insurance, and part of the reason was loss of use. But 725 00:57:49.559 --> 00:57:53.280 I swear to you I don't recall paying any more than maybe fourteen bucks a 726 00:57:53.400 --> 00:57:57.719 day. Now. I don't know if that's changed. She said she's paying 727 00:57:57.960 --> 00:58:02.280 forty dollars a day. That seems like sessive. I have heard from the 728 00:58:02.400 --> 00:58:07.679 last few people I've talked to closer to that thirty thirty five range is holy 729 00:58:08.280 --> 00:58:13.840 crap. One person was telling me the insurance not yeah. I don't know 730 00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:17.639 how accurate this was, was more than the rental car, which I had 731 00:58:17.679 --> 00:58:22.719 a hard time believing. But I think part of that is the supply chain 732 00:58:22.840 --> 00:58:28.840 issues and people being a little bit more aware of it. They're seeing a 733 00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:32.559 bit more of an interest in it, and that probably is somewhat affecting the 734 00:58:32.599 --> 00:58:39.639 price of that Holy crap. So she does have an issue now. Of 735 00:58:39.760 --> 00:58:44.320 course, the other issue is this, even if she is paying a lot 736 00:58:44.400 --> 00:58:49.199 of money for that coverage, ken they I mean, and this is not 737 00:58:49.360 --> 00:58:52.119 for you, Jeremy, but I really appreciate you being on the the Insurance 738 00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:55.679 Health Center dot com and that's where you call for insurance checkups three h three 739 00:58:55.840 --> 00:59:01.079 nine ninety six nine thou But the real question here is can she hold Yundai 740 00:59:01.119 --> 00:59:05.280 responsible? I'd say, in my opinion, never in a million years, 741 00:59:06.119 --> 00:59:09.519 because loss of use is a total different ballgame. They're saying that loss of 742 00:59:09.679 --> 00:59:15.039 use is a result of an accident and to get that coverage for what could 743 00:59:15.159 --> 00:59:20.519 happen. There's no way that Hyundai is going to be responsible for that. 744 00:59:21.199 --> 00:59:23.639 Now, can you rent it without that? Sure? You can just let 745 00:59:23.719 --> 00:59:29.119 your insurance cover it and hope they're not successful in a loss of use case. 746 00:59:30.599 --> 00:59:37.599 You know, all I can say is that's really a consequential loss warranty 747 00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:46.159 specifically disclaim those. But I was unsuccessful, Christine in finding you a better 748 00:59:46.239 --> 00:59:52.400 solution because I thought Compass would say that was outrageous and they're not saying that. 749 00:59:53.559 --> 00:59:59.480 So God, it's it's an understand where I'm at. Oh, I 750 00:59:59.599 --> 01:00:05.599 understand and completely where I mean. I was totally outdated on that. I 751 01:00:05.679 --> 01:00:09.039 mean, yeah, so when you go to rent to when you go to 752 01:00:09.079 --> 01:00:15.559 rent a car, I wish they would have just loss of use coverage that 753 01:00:15.719 --> 01:00:20.079 you can take out with the with the rental agency, so the rest of 754 01:00:20.159 --> 01:00:23.039 your own insurance covers it. You know what I'm saying. I don't know 755 01:00:23.239 --> 01:00:29.519 too, Tom Wow, they don't do it, but I wish. I 756 01:00:29.599 --> 01:00:30.960 wish they did too, because that's exactly what I would do, but they 757 01:00:30.960 --> 01:00:35.320 don't offer that. So have you ever have you ever looked into these other 758 01:00:35.440 --> 01:00:38.960 places rent a heap, things like that. I think they're called something like 759 01:00:39.039 --> 01:00:45.880 that. I don't know, I hate I have not. I guess that's 760 01:00:45.880 --> 01:00:49.599 another option. Try to find a less expensive rental car, that's another option. 761 01:00:50.679 --> 01:00:53.679 Yeah, I don't know. Man, you know, I just don't 762 01:00:53.719 --> 01:00:58.239 recall paying that much, but I might. I might have no one, 763 01:00:58.320 --> 01:01:00.800 no, not. Actually it was a while, so it's possible. Though 764 01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:05.400 you bring you bring up a really good issue, and I'd like to know 765 01:01:05.559 --> 01:01:07.639 what other people are facing with that. But there's nothing we can do. 766 01:01:07.800 --> 01:01:12.400 And really, I'm not telling you not to go after Hyundai, but I 767 01:01:13.639 --> 01:01:17.800 they're paying forty bucks a day plus they're paying. You're gonna have a nice 768 01:01:17.840 --> 01:01:21.559 car when you're done. I mean, really, it's gonna be worth something. 769 01:01:22.000 --> 01:01:24.039 In fact, what I would do if IRAU is once they get that 770 01:01:24.199 --> 01:01:29.119 engine, well, I would do one of two things. Either drive the 771 01:01:29.639 --> 01:01:31.840 wheels off it or sell it immediately with a new engine. What are you 772 01:01:32.000 --> 01:01:37.199 kidding? That'll have a great market value. Yeah, I was thinking exactly 773 01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:39.480 that. Tom. The only thing that's the big hitch and the whole thing. 774 01:01:39.639 --> 01:01:45.079 I reirdly wouldn't even mind paying the cost per day. The problem is 775 01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:47.760 it's just there's no end there's no end date. They haven't given me any 776 01:01:47.880 --> 01:01:52.119 end date as to when this engine will be available. What if it's four 777 01:01:52.199 --> 01:01:54.400 months from now? You know, I know that. No, No, 778 01:01:54.559 --> 01:01:59.519 I understand though, but that is something happening to everyone. Look at. 779 01:01:59.599 --> 01:02:01.400 I don't know what to tell you. Look at. I had a little 780 01:02:01.519 --> 01:02:06.639 scratch I was having done and they said, well we would replace this piece 781 01:02:06.679 --> 01:02:08.519 and I said okay, and they said it's going to be four months And 782 01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:13.800 I said what so what I did? Because it wasn't critical us, I 783 01:02:13.880 --> 01:02:15.079 said, well, guess what here, I'll pay for the part, call 784 01:02:15.159 --> 01:02:17.760 me when it's in. Then I went in and had it changed out. 785 01:02:19.039 --> 01:02:22.599 I mean, I would never leave a car. I mean, I don't 786 01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:24.280 know what to do if a car's not drivable and they tell you it's going 787 01:02:24.320 --> 01:02:28.440 to be and some people are telling me it can be four to six months. 788 01:02:28.639 --> 01:02:30.719 I got to take this break. We got more coming right up. 789 01:02:30.719 --> 01:02:38.599 I'm sorry about that. Christine, go with a sure thing Denver's best roofer 790 01:02:38.800 --> 01:02:45.920 Excel Roofing dot com.

Don't forget I have Denver Shades. I got Denver. 798 01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:23.239 Uh. I meant to say a maid in the shade with me? 799 01:03:23.480 --> 01:03:29.480 Brendan Killian their website Denver Shades dot co for window covering sad. Let's go 800 01:03:29.639 --> 01:03:35.599 to uh Mark. Hey, Mark, Hey, we were talking about loss 801 01:03:35.639 --> 01:03:39.280 of use. I hope she's listening because this uh slipped my mind. And 802 01:03:39.400 --> 01:03:43.400 again these guys are calling me Biden, but it did slip my mind. 803 01:03:43.480 --> 01:03:50.320 Tell them that you thank you, mar Mark, Mark? What do you 804 01:03:50.400 --> 01:03:53.039 got to say? Hey? Listen, man, it's pretty straightforward. So 805 01:03:53.199 --> 01:04:00.119 the venture X by Capital one will cover almost all damage staffed up to like 806 01:04:00.320 --> 01:04:05.199 seventy or eighty thousand dollars, and they'll losso cover loss of use and there's 807 01:04:05.320 --> 01:04:09.440 no extra cost. You just got to make sure you use that credit card 808 01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:13.599 to pay and book directly with whomever. You can't book it through a third 809 01:04:13.679 --> 01:04:18.679 party. And then the the Amex Platinum covers loss of use and that stuff 810 01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:23.639 as well. So a lot of credit cards what she's buying insurance for, 811 01:04:24.000 --> 01:04:28.000 but for forty four bucks a day or whatever she's spending, she's buying a 812 01:04:28.119 --> 01:04:30.920 full coverage package. That's just not for loss of use. I don't care 813 01:04:30.960 --> 01:04:35.280 what she says. So Mark, you're saying you have you used the credit 814 01:04:35.360 --> 01:04:40.360 card, it will handle that. Yeah. And there's other ones too, 815 01:04:40.519 --> 01:04:44.599 like you have one, what's the green one you use for business? The 816 01:04:44.760 --> 01:04:49.119 cap one? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's it's this far card handles 817 01:04:49.519 --> 01:04:53.079 quite a bit too. Man. I'm embarrassed to tell this story, but 818 01:04:53.199 --> 01:04:57.719 we were in Texas and we stayd a hotel. We flew in and we 819 01:04:57.800 --> 01:05:00.639 stayed a hotel that was actually on airport ground, so we had to go 820 01:05:00.800 --> 01:05:04.639 through this gate every day. And I backed up. I backed up, 821 01:05:05.039 --> 01:05:10.599 and I scraped the live in hell at a rental car on this cement thing. 822 01:05:11.320 --> 01:05:15.199 Capital One stepped in. They paid.

So when 847 01:07:10.960 --> 01:07:16.199 is someone going to come out with the Biden shuffle for a dance? I'd 848 01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:20.840 like to see it. It would make a good dance, the Biden shuffle, 849 01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:28.719 Huh, I wonder, saying like maybe we can do that on TikTok. 850 01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:35.119 Anyway, Mark, you called in about this guy. We called him 851 01:07:35.159 --> 01:07:40.320 on the air and he claimed he was a victim. He said one of 852 01:07:40.400 --> 01:07:44.719 his employees stole his truck in his contracts and went out and took money. 853 01:07:45.719 --> 01:07:48.800 You were one of the victims, right, So what's what's going on with 854 01:07:48.880 --> 01:07:51.599 that? Did you ever call police about that? And did he ever call 855 01:07:51.679 --> 01:07:57.440 police? Because he's he claims this truck was stolen. Well, I think 856 01:07:57.519 --> 01:08:00.400 he claims his truck was stolen after the fact, after all of this had 857 01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:04.000 happened. This is a horrizle. Well he's yeah, because here's what he 858 01:08:04.039 --> 01:08:08.599 said. He was out of town and didn't know it. Horizon Roofing and 859 01:08:08.800 --> 01:08:14.639 Concrete Services Joe Perkowitz says, I didn't do it. He said, Mark 860 01:08:14.760 --> 01:08:19.119 never even met me before, and right, he sent yes, and he 861 01:08:19.239 --> 01:08:25.039 paid my employees eighteen grand up front. Who did you make that check out 862 01:08:25.079 --> 01:08:30.399 to? I know it was real cash. It was cold hard. I'll 863 01:08:30.439 --> 01:08:33.159 wait a minute, Mark, now, now we have to put the dunce 864 01:08:33.239 --> 01:08:41.439 cap on you for a second. You you literally got eighteen thousand dollars in 865 01:08:41.600 --> 01:08:45.319 green bags, yes, and paid. Did you think it was strange that 866 01:08:45.439 --> 01:08:50.680 he wanted eighteen thousand dollars in cash? Well, he didn't ask for eighteen 867 01:08:50.840 --> 01:08:55.520 upfront. He asked for five upfront. So I gave the up hold on 868 01:08:56.000 --> 01:09:01.399 okay, and then what well, then he did the work with excavating the 869 01:09:01.479 --> 01:09:05.279 backyard and removing all of the debris and all of it. Then one set 870 01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:12.079 up. Well, then he came back with some cement forms and cement form 871 01:09:12.199 --> 01:09:18.399 clamps that is, and asked for five thousand more so that he could get 872 01:09:18.479 --> 01:09:23.399 this cement ordered. Okay, and gave a great excuse for it. I 873 01:09:23.479 --> 01:09:27.560 mean I bought it, okay, so you paid I ree, excuse me 874 01:09:27.680 --> 01:09:31.079 five plus five that's ten. Then what right? Well, then he came 875 01:09:31.560 --> 01:09:34.479 then nothing, but he came back and says, Mark, I just have 876 01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:38.399 to have a little bit more to get this started, and you know I 877 01:09:39.079 --> 01:09:45.000 needed half up front, so I would like to have five let me see 878 01:09:45.039 --> 01:09:50.880 five eight thousand more to get this now. But here's what I'm asking you. 879 01:09:51.079 --> 01:09:59.560 Did you think it was strange he wanted it in all cash. We 880 01:10:00.119 --> 01:10:04.399 negotiated up front the CRISI of the entire project at a cash greenback price. 881 01:10:04.960 --> 01:10:08.840 You walked into this, Mark, Man, Mark, you walked into this 882 01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:13.359 bro you were begging to get. I'm not saying you deserve it, by 883 01:10:13.359 --> 01:10:15.920 the way, I'm not saying you deserve it, but you walked into it. 884 01:10:15.720 --> 01:10:18.760 I don't think there's anything you can do against this guy. You never 885 01:10:18.920 --> 01:10:23.279 dealt with, Joe. I'm telling you, I don't I don't think you 886 01:10:23.640 --> 01:10:27.840 You paid cash to a guy and then that guy ripped you off.

I'm doing good? What's going 922 01:13:09.840 --> 01:13:15.600 on with you? We and I say we. Some parents have been having 923 01:13:16.239 --> 01:13:24.439 some trouble getting financial information from a booster club operating at a high school and 924 01:13:26.600 --> 01:13:32.119 until recently, tax returns hadn't been filed, and they finally filed for two 925 01:13:32.279 --> 01:13:36.600 years, but it's still Can you tell me the purpose of the booster club? 926 01:13:39.720 --> 01:13:44.479 Well, that's a good question. I have belongs to it? Who 927 01:13:44.560 --> 01:13:47.159 belongs to it? Beth? Let's start there. Yeah, there's a board 928 01:13:47.239 --> 01:13:55.600 of directors. They have listed that it's a non non voting members but who 929 01:13:55.880 --> 01:13:59.760 belonged who belonged to I mean, like, just tell me the membership? 930 01:13:59.840 --> 01:14:05.880 What is it for? It's for the parents that thought to support the baseball 931 01:14:05.960 --> 01:14:11.880 team and what is it? What does the booster club do? They it's 932 01:14:11.960 --> 01:14:16.119 for supporting the baseball team? Right, But do the parents belong or the 933 01:14:16.239 --> 01:14:26.159 players belong? Who belongs to it? Yes? My understanding is that the 934 01:14:26.319 --> 01:14:32.680 parents belong. But there's no bylaws that we can find. Well, how 935 01:14:32.720 --> 01:14:35.720 do you join? Okay? Tell me? How do you join? And 936 01:14:35.800 --> 01:14:40.039 why do you care? Here's what I mean to This is what I'm asking. 937 01:14:40.359 --> 01:14:43.680 Why do you care about financials? Do you pay something? Do you 938 01:14:43.760 --> 01:14:46.279 pay monthly? Do you pay an initiation fee? If I go to that 939 01:14:46.439 --> 01:14:50.039 school and I start my kid in that school? How do I join the 940 01:14:50.039 --> 01:15:00.079 booster club? And that's the thing is that they do fundraisers and the coach's 941 01:15:00.600 --> 01:15:09.920 email the play baseball players two for fundraising. However, there aren't any bylaws. 942 01:15:10.239 --> 01:15:14.840 There's only a board of directors. They're as far as members from what 943 01:15:14.960 --> 01:15:19.640 I can tell, there's there are no members that can vote. There isn't 944 01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:25.000 is it okay? The entity itself? Is it a five? Oh one 945 01:15:25.199 --> 01:15:33.079 C three? Yes? Okay? Now they have to file every year? 946 01:15:33.560 --> 01:15:44.840 Have they done that? No? Why I don't think they were forced to 947 01:15:45.039 --> 01:15:54.680 file? Well? Okay, so they do no filing whatsoever. They recently 948 01:15:55.720 --> 01:16:03.079 filed a ten N for two years for twenty three and twenty two. They've 949 01:16:03.199 --> 01:16:14.960 been operating since twenty nineteen. Okay, they filed ten ninety n's correct? 950 01:16:15.399 --> 01:16:24.279 And when did the nine ninety end right? As a Nancy got it correct? 951 01:16:25.159 --> 01:16:30.199 Okay? And that is a return right and that's okay. So the 952 01:16:30.319 --> 01:16:38.760 postcard and did you look at the filing now? The nine N is not 953 01:16:38.960 --> 01:16:44.319 available. It's an electronic postcard. Fu were you able to get at least 954 01:16:44.319 --> 01:16:49.239 what they put on there? No, it's for small tax examps. I'm 955 01:16:49.279 --> 01:16:58.920 looking it up organizations and okay, so you have no idea where the money 956 01:16:59.039 --> 01:17:02.000 goes or what they use it for. Do you think now when you say 957 01:17:02.039 --> 01:17:09.560 a board of directors, how many directors five? Do you think their self 958 01:17:09.640 --> 01:17:12.600 in their their self enriching? I mean, what do you think's going on? 959 01:17:14.560 --> 01:17:24.000 I do? Really? Yes? Okay, And and tell me when 960 01:17:24.079 --> 01:17:30.640 you ask the board of directors for information, what do they say that up 961 01:17:30.760 --> 01:17:39.880 until last night, they said that they would get it to the parents that 962 01:17:40.239 --> 01:17:45.880 were currently that currently had baseball players at the school. So there's a separate 963 01:17:46.479 --> 01:17:51.199 communication between Okay. So that's what I want to ask, do you have 964 01:17:51.279 --> 01:17:58.319 a player at the school. He graduated in twenty twenty four, so he 965 01:17:58.439 --> 01:18:01.479 graduated in me. Okay, and you were trying while he was a student 966 01:18:02.399 --> 01:18:05.880 and a baseball player to find out what's going on with this booster club? 967 01:18:08.319 --> 01:18:12.039 Correct? Did the booster club ever buy anything for the team? Did they 968 01:18:12.079 --> 01:18:18.479 ever put on any events other than fundraisers? It's not clear because we asked 969 01:18:18.520 --> 01:18:24.720 for financial information and we hadn't been provided any information about what was When you 970 01:18:24.760 --> 01:18:28.600 say it's not clear, what I mean is when a booster club does something, 971 01:18:28.680 --> 01:18:30.640 you usually know they do something. They buy this, or they buy 972 01:18:30.720 --> 01:18:36.880 that, or they sponsor this or they sponsor that. I'm only aware of 973 01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:43.600 fundraisers. So other than fundraisers, what do they do with the funds? 974 01:18:45.560 --> 01:18:54.119 It's not clear? And okay, are these parents that are on the board 975 01:18:54.159 --> 01:19:00.840 of directors this five member board? Are they parents? Most of them are? 976 01:19:00.119 --> 01:19:05.720 The treasurer is apparent from someone that graduated two years ago. Well, 977 01:19:06.079 --> 01:19:09.880 what are the Okay, how much are they raising? Do you have any 978 01:19:09.920 --> 01:19:18.760 idea about that? I didn't until last night. They provided two spreadsheets that 979 01:19:19.159 --> 01:19:27.039 showed seventy five thousand dollars per year. I don't have the breakdowns in front 980 01:19:27.079 --> 01:19:33.760 of me about well taken in. So they are coming through with information last 981 01:19:33.840 --> 01:19:40.000 night, yes, but it is not clear. It just says Venmo transaction, 982 01:19:40.399 --> 01:19:47.159 so it's not clear what's going to specific places. But it does note 983 01:19:47.199 --> 01:19:50.399 that they're also do you not want to mention the high school or anything? 984 01:19:50.399 --> 01:19:54.079 I mean, have you gone to the high school people and say, hey, 985 01:19:54.560 --> 01:19:58.520 you know they're operating as part of the you know, this team or 986 01:19:58.640 --> 01:20:00.680 this school in the name of the school, do you care? Have you 987 01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:06.520 talked to anyone at the school. I've talked to the principal, the superintendent, 988 01:20:06.760 --> 01:20:13.319 and what do they do? What do they say? They have said, 989 01:20:14.319 --> 01:20:18.960 up until recently, have said thank you for your concerns, thank you 990 01:20:19.039 --> 01:20:24.479 for passing this long. A couple of weeks ago I got an email that 991 01:20:24.720 --> 01:20:30.960 they can't discuss specifics. And then most recently they're trying to say that there's 992 01:20:31.000 --> 01:20:35.800 a separation between the booster club and the school. Well, there is a 993 01:20:35.920 --> 01:20:42.640 separation, but the so this booster club seems to be a license to just 994 01:20:42.880 --> 01:20:45.840 collect money, but no one no accountability as to where they spend it. 995 01:20:47.520 --> 01:20:53.920 Correct, so no one actually joined? How do they elect the five member 996 01:20:53.960 --> 01:21:01.479 board of directors. I've only seen one time where they actually put that there 997 01:21:01.640 --> 01:21:10.640 was a position open. What I've seen is that people suddenly become vice president 998 01:21:11.159 --> 01:21:17.319 or do they have meetings, not that I'm aware of. I've asked for 999 01:21:18.399 --> 01:21:24.960 meeting schedules, they haven't been provided. I've asked for financial information and until 1000 01:21:25.039 --> 01:21:30.560 last night only the first time I've received anything. I've asked for clarification from 1001 01:21:30.600 --> 01:21:41.239 the school because I've seen where the coach has used Google classroom to ask players 1002 01:21:41.600 --> 01:21:46.720 for fundraising information and email. Okay, I hear a lot about fundraising. 1003 01:21:47.159 --> 01:21:51.199 Do you ever hear about events they have to pay? I mean where they 1004 01:21:51.319 --> 01:21:56.600 spend money? I hear about them raising money. Can you think of anything 1005 01:21:56.680 --> 01:21:59.800 they do? I mean, did the Do they help the baseball team with 1006 01:22:00.079 --> 01:22:03.640 the uniforms? Do they help the baseball team with supplies? With travel? 1007 01:22:06.760 --> 01:22:12.880 What I paid the Booster club for travel? I have heard that they pay 1008 01:22:13.039 --> 01:22:26.399 for dinners and I believe snacks. I've heard you simply you simply want an 1009 01:22:26.439 --> 01:22:31.560 accounting? Are you the only one? No? How many parents would you 1010 01:22:31.720 --> 01:22:36.920 say? Literally? How many? Not say many? But how many parents 1011 01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:46.479 do you think care about this? I would say, can? I would 1012 01:22:46.520 --> 01:22:54.199 also say that parents aren't aware what brought you tell me why this came up 1013 01:22:54.239 --> 01:23:00.159 to begin with your suspicions, Well, they're One of the suspicions. Is 1014 01:23:00.399 --> 01:23:11.079 there is a meet the players event that our players show up for. Yes, 1015 01:23:11.239 --> 01:23:15.039 that it's actually the registration is to a different five oh one C three, 1016 01:23:15.920 --> 01:23:20.319 And so my question is where the community is paying a different five oh 1017 01:23:20.359 --> 01:23:27.680 one C three. Our players are showing up to earn money, I guess 1018 01:23:28.680 --> 01:23:31.439 for this five oh one C three. Where is the money coming back? 1019 01:23:31.600 --> 01:23:40.239 Is there any benefit because my my son and players are in my opinion, 1020 01:23:40.359 --> 01:23:44.880 being used to earn money for different five oh one C three. Well, 1021 01:23:44.960 --> 01:23:51.640 how many different ones three that I'm aware of? Are they all part of 1022 01:23:51.720 --> 01:23:58.000 the same five member board of directors? No, they're different five oh one 1023 01:23:58.119 --> 01:24:00.760 C three. So there's a community five two community five on one C threes, 1024 01:24:01.479 --> 01:24:06.840 a school five on one C three. The softball team had been benefiting 1025 01:24:08.119 --> 01:24:13.840 from fundraisers from the baseball five oh one C three, and they in February 1026 01:24:14.079 --> 01:24:16.720 created their own five oh one C three. So we've got about four five 1027 01:24:16.760 --> 01:24:21.239 oh one. So it's not just one that you're worried about or you're concerned 1028 01:24:21.279 --> 01:24:26.720 about. There are a number of them. There are a number that are 1029 01:24:27.399 --> 01:24:33.119 working in the same circle. My concern is that as parents, our players 1030 01:24:33.399 --> 01:24:38.039 are, in my opinion, being used to earn many to these five O 1031 01:24:38.159 --> 01:24:43.680 one C three's without any information coming back as to what's being earned, how 1032 01:24:43.720 --> 01:24:48.000 it's distributed. Right there, don't I don't blame you. I don't blame 1033 01:24:48.079 --> 01:24:56.840 you. I mean these organizations should be totally transparent. Do you have Do 1034 01:24:56.920 --> 01:25:00.640 you have the tax ID numbers for these five oh one three C threes? 1035 01:25:01.079 --> 01:25:05.159 Yes, you do for each one. I want you to email me the 1036 01:25:05.319 --> 01:25:11.600 name, the complete name, and the taxpayer ID number for each one. 1037 01:25:13.119 --> 01:25:16.159 Okay, Okay, I mean I really do. I'm going to look into 1038 01:25:16.199 --> 01:25:27.479 them. Okay, I agree. I mean it's because I I don't okay, 1039 01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:30.039 I mean, I don't know what's going on. But you know, 1040 01:25:30.159 --> 01:25:32.640 you bring up a good point. How many times do we actually check? 1041 01:25:34.680 --> 01:25:41.199 I mean a lot of people raise money. We had one time a woman 1042 01:25:41.399 --> 01:25:46.960 who had this entire big organization for I forget what it was soccer or something. 1043 01:25:47.520 --> 01:25:51.239 She was raising money hand over fist and not giving any of it over. 1044 01:25:51.560 --> 01:25:59.520 It was her own little cash cow. Now I'll bet you this goes 1045 01:25:59.560 --> 01:26:03.000 on all the place. I mean, who actually checks into these booster clubs 1046 01:26:03.039 --> 01:26:10.359 and fundraisers? Who does? No one does? No one does. So 1047 01:26:11.199 --> 01:26:15.279 I want you to send me your contact info along with the school's name and 1048 01:26:15.359 --> 01:26:18.039 all that. I won't put it on the air yet. And I want 1049 01:26:18.159 --> 01:26:24.239 the names of the organizations along with their taxpayer IDs or their tax IDs whatever 1050 01:26:24.359 --> 01:26:28.359 EI ns, whatever you call them, their their identification numbers.

But they didn't know what they was doing. Okay, tell 1062 01:27:30.439 --> 01:27:33.359 me about it. First, tell me about your situation. I working for 1063 01:27:33.439 --> 01:27:38.479 this truck in outfit out of South Dakota, North Dakota, and we got 1064 01:27:38.600 --> 01:27:43.359 cameras in the truck. So they were saying somebody put a bag over the 1065 01:27:43.439 --> 01:27:46.239 camera in the truck and they asked the other guy to drive p ind did 1066 01:27:46.279 --> 01:27:47.960 he do it? And asked me, did I do it? I told 1067 01:27:48.000 --> 01:27:51.920 him no? He said no, dub well, super Cloud, I said, 1068 01:27:53.000 --> 01:27:56.520 I think you done it and terminated me by phone. Don't let it 1069 01:27:56.640 --> 01:27:58.920 know nothing, he said, don't come down here. The morning we you 1070 01:27:59.159 --> 01:28:03.119 terminated. How long were you there? Ray? Three years? Made nine 1071 01:28:03.199 --> 01:28:11.039 hundred loads in uh covid uh that pandemic. I made nine hundred loads from 1072 01:28:11.119 --> 01:28:15.880 Dimmer to law platform. So you worked there for three years and then and 1073 01:28:15.960 --> 01:28:21.680 then you were fired this fire terminated. Just called me on the phone till 1074 01:28:21.720 --> 01:28:28.479 I was terminated. You're fired by phone, okay. And then here's what 1075 01:28:28.560 --> 01:28:30.199 I want you to know. Ray. And the only reason I'm saying this 1076 01:28:31.279 --> 01:28:36.159 is to help you. I promise you Now you said it had to do 1077 01:28:36.359 --> 01:28:43.119 with covering up the camera, getting a cameras in the diesel trucks. Why 1078 01:28:43.239 --> 01:28:46.399 do they have cameras in the diesel trucks. That's a new law for a 1079 01:28:47.039 --> 01:28:50.920 motor carrier, federal motor carrier. At the hell cameras in the court truck, 1080 01:28:51.000 --> 01:28:54.920 one in each corner, one in the middle to watch the driver TC 1081 01:28:55.239 --> 01:29:00.000 blinkers I three times and they say you were asleep. Okay, now your 1082 01:29:00.479 --> 01:29:04.640 camera was covered up. Yeah, they said, what's coming up with a 1083 01:29:04.760 --> 01:29:12.159 bank? Which one all of them? The one in the center. Okay. 1084 01:29:12.560 --> 01:29:16.600 And and you have a code driver that you partner with. Yes, 1085 01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:19.239 he does P and D doing a day and I'm lying home at night. 1086 01:29:19.920 --> 01:29:25.079 Okay do you do you do you drive together side by side or do this 1087 01:29:25.199 --> 01:29:28.319 one pick up the truck the other one get out? You know? One 1088 01:29:28.399 --> 01:29:30.079 pick truck he drive in a day and I pick it up at night and 1089 01:29:30.199 --> 01:29:34.319 drive delivery and talent. Okay, I gotcha, Now I got the picture. 1090 01:29:34.920 --> 01:29:40.640 Now here's the here's the bad news. Okay, Ray, whether that 1091 01:29:40.840 --> 01:29:45.800 camera was covered up or not. Unless you're represented by some kind of union 1092 01:29:45.920 --> 01:29:51.840 or something, they can call you and fire you. MM hmm, they 1093 01:29:51.880 --> 01:29:58.399 don't have to have a reason. Okay, let let me let me put 1094 01:29:58.399 --> 01:30:01.920 it. I want to give you an analogy here. Years ago, people 1095 01:30:02.119 --> 01:30:06.920 used to call with all kinds of trouble with landlords, and I would say 1096 01:30:06.960 --> 01:30:12.680 to them, it really sucks. Tenants have no rights, basically none. 1097 01:30:13.079 --> 01:30:15.520 You know, landlords pretty much can do whatever they want. And then that 1098 01:30:15.800 --> 01:30:23.640 changed big time. I mean it changed big time, where now tenants almost 1099 01:30:23.800 --> 01:30:29.359 have more rights than landlords as far as renewing leases and all kinds of stuff. 1100 01:30:29.680 --> 01:30:34.199 However, now I'm going to tell you with employment law has not caught 1101 01:30:34.279 --> 01:30:41.800 up. All of the rights are with employers when it comes to hiring and 1102 01:30:42.039 --> 01:30:46.920 firing. There's just very few rules they have to follow. Now, a 1103 01:30:47.039 --> 01:30:53.119 lot of employers think they have to follow way more rules than they really have 1104 01:30:53.279 --> 01:30:57.239 to follow. They document everything, and they think they're going to be sued 1105 01:30:57.319 --> 01:31:01.239 for everything. But I want to know this. Are they trying to stand 1106 01:31:01.319 --> 01:31:06.159 in your way for unemployment? No? I never got unemployment. I just 1107 01:31:06.279 --> 01:31:12.920 been sitting torment for the last Well how long ago were you fired? I 1108 01:31:13.039 --> 01:31:17.960 was fired July twenty first, two thousand and two, two thousand and one 1109 01:31:19.079 --> 01:31:25.680 and twenty two. Why are you calling now. I got a lot of 1110 01:31:25.720 --> 01:31:27.920 things going on in my life. I just said, I just wanted to 1111 01:31:27.960 --> 01:31:31.560 get away because there's under me. I don't think there's anything you can do 1112 01:31:31.640 --> 01:31:35.840 about it now at all. I mean you're talking about here, I have 1113 01:31:35.880 --> 01:31:39.520 a hear yo, huh, Yeah, I have a three year one. 1114 01:31:39.600 --> 01:31:43.720 I have a three year window, A three year window for one good file 1115 01:31:43.720 --> 01:31:48.199 a laws Who's who told you that? That's a statue for what? For 1116 01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:51.720 filing the lawsuit for what? It depends on what you're filing it for? 1117 01:31:54.279 --> 01:32:03.119 Wealth determination? Okay, okay, what is wrongfulating? Here's what I want 1118 01:32:03.159 --> 01:32:06.520 to know. I'm trying to find I'm trying to find something. Who told 1119 01:32:06.600 --> 01:32:14.319 you? Who told you that you had you were wrongfully terminated? Did anyone 1120 01:32:14.439 --> 01:32:17.520 tell you that? Did you talk to an attorney? Yeah? It's two 1121 01:32:17.600 --> 01:32:21.800 it's two years and it'd be two years if okay, Okay, Now, 1122 01:32:23.199 --> 01:32:26.479 who told you? Though? Here's what I want to know? Yeah, 1123 01:32:27.560 --> 01:32:32.960 who told you it was wrongful termination? He has no proof. He just 1124 01:32:33.000 --> 01:32:36.000 said I've done it. He just said I think you've done it. Now, 1125 01:32:36.039 --> 01:32:40.039 Okay, what if he says this, I made a mistake, you 1126 01:32:40.119 --> 01:32:45.840 didn't do it. We don't want you working here anyway? Yeah, what 1127 01:32:45.920 --> 01:32:47.960 would you do? Then? No, I'm asking because I really mean that 1128 01:32:48.359 --> 01:32:53.520 they don't have to have a reason to terminate you unless you have some kind 1129 01:32:53.560 --> 01:32:57.399 of contract. Do you have an employment contract? No, I'm not with 1130 01:32:57.520 --> 01:33:01.039 a union. Know did you have it? And you didn't have a personal 1131 01:33:01.119 --> 01:33:05.600 employment contract? When you talked to an attorney, did any attorney tell you 1132 01:33:06.159 --> 01:33:11.680 that you had a wrongful termination case? That's what the handle. This is 1133 01:33:12.000 --> 01:33:16.159 her job, her law firm handle. It's called livelihood law firm. They 1134 01:33:16.199 --> 01:33:19.680 handle wrong for termination. Okay, And why didn't you hire them? I'm 1135 01:33:19.760 --> 01:33:25.199 just curious. She was somebody that was the statue of limitation was on. 1136 01:33:25.319 --> 01:33:30.039 The deadline was over with, and that's what discrimination. The wrong for termination 1137 01:33:30.239 --> 01:33:33.159 is two to three years. And I asked them on this law met fill 1138 01:33:33.199 --> 01:33:36.720 out. Do you have any upcoming deadlines? And I told them I need 1139 01:33:36.800 --> 01:33:42.840 to fid a letter up to the company, intend to sue before July to 1140 01:33:42.960 --> 01:33:46.520 twenty A second of twenty twenty four. Let me tell you the only let 1141 01:33:46.640 --> 01:33:54.960 me tell you the only conditions that you can bring for wrongful termination? Okay, 1142 01:33:55.600 --> 01:34:02.920 okay. One is discrimination for race, gender, religion, or disability. 1143 01:34:03.399 --> 01:34:08.960 Okay, if they fired you for any of those reasons and you have 1144 01:34:09.119 --> 01:34:14.960 to prove it, that would be wrongful termination. Another one would be what's 1145 01:34:15.079 --> 01:34:25.560 called retaliation. That's if you reported something that was illegal or unsafe. It's 1146 01:34:25.600 --> 01:34:32.960 a whistleblower protection. The other one would be if they violated your legal rights, 1147 01:34:33.159 --> 01:34:41.159 meaning they made you work too long, or they violated your actual employment 1148 01:34:41.920 --> 01:34:48.960 rights. The other one would be if they breached an employment contract. In 1149 01:34:49.079 --> 01:34:54.840 other words, there's if you had a contract and they breached it. But 1150 01:34:55.199 --> 01:35:00.159 other than that, there is very little you can do for being terminated. 1151 01:35:00.479 --> 01:35:04.159 I know what you're thinking. He lied about you covering up the camera. 1152 01:35:04.600 --> 01:35:10.520 He suspected you covering up the camera, so he fired you. They're allowed 1153 01:35:10.600 --> 01:35:14.800 to do that. I know it doesn't sound fair, but they're allowed to 1154 01:35:14.960 --> 01:35:20.520 do that. Oh, that's like a Royal police chief to fire Vanessa's that's 1155 01:35:20.560 --> 01:35:25.880 what she follow a lawsuit against the Royal Police for wrong determination.

So if you spend your seventy five grand, 1160 01:35:42.960 --> 01:35:45.640 what do you hope to get my back being about two hunder grand? 1161 01:35:46.600 --> 01:35:50.600 Okay, So have you talked to an attorney yet that will take the case. 1162 01:35:51.760 --> 01:35:55.119 I have one with.

Which one are you grabbing onto? What's that? VALI? Retaliation? 1168 01:36:24.239 --> 01:36:27.199 And what was it retailed? What did you report about them that they're 1169 01:36:27.239 --> 01:36:30.880 retaliating against. I said, I wouldn't go to get a hans Met endorsement. 1170 01:36:31.319 --> 01:36:33.720 And when they bought the company, they said you could keep your job 1171 01:36:34.039 --> 01:36:38.199 and would and did not have to have a hans Met endorsement. And later 1172 01:36:38.279 --> 01:36:42.039 on they said, and that's that they're allowed to fire you. That that's 1173 01:36:42.119 --> 01:36:47.319 not retaliation. Retaliation.

It started like from the beginning, they were very dishonest with me 1207 01:39:34.239 --> 01:39:36.760 when I went to go look at the place. Is this the one where 1208 01:39:36.840 --> 01:39:45.079 you had uh a lease for a year? You had six months one year 1209 01:39:45.199 --> 01:39:48.119 lease? Yep, and you had six months left. No, no, 1210 01:39:48.319 --> 01:39:50.319 no, that's not me. Okay, that's not the one. Okay, 1211 01:39:50.359 --> 01:39:53.920 I'm going to find it. Okay, so keep going, tell me about 1212 01:39:53.920 --> 01:39:56.560 it. What's what's happening. I've only been there for two months, but 1213 01:39:57.079 --> 01:40:00.119 starting from the beginning, when I went to look at the place, it 1214 01:40:00.199 --> 01:40:03.359 didn't seem like there was anything wrong, right, But I did notice there 1215 01:40:03.439 --> 01:40:08.119 was a window open at the top of the Was there an odor issue? 1216 01:40:08.279 --> 01:40:12.239 That's what I'm seeing here, Okay, that is that's one of the issues. 1217 01:40:12.279 --> 01:40:15.920 That was the first problem. And then when I came in to move 1218 01:40:16.000 --> 01:40:19.840 in, it was just it smelled like dog and cat pee all over the 1219 01:40:19.920 --> 01:40:25.159 house. And I addressed that to them and I said, you know, 1220 01:40:25.239 --> 01:40:27.760 it didn't smell like this when I first looked at this house, and they 1221 01:40:27.840 --> 01:40:30.239 told me open the windows and the smell will go away. And I'm like, 1222 01:40:30.479 --> 01:40:33.720 okay, but I can't like open the windows like all the time. 1223 01:40:33.840 --> 01:40:36.840 I'm like, if I'd have known that this house smelled like that, I 1224 01:40:36.880 --> 01:40:42.760 would have never went through with it, and so we had a whole entire 1225 01:40:42.880 --> 01:40:45.079 issue with that. They didn't They kept brushing me off. They didn't want 1226 01:40:45.119 --> 01:40:47.039 to do anything. So what do you want? Do you want to get 1227 01:40:47.079 --> 01:40:50.520 out of the lease? Yeah, well here's another here's a problem though. 1228 01:40:50.800 --> 01:40:57.840 The house is infested with mice and I saw mice pooping. They only gave 1229 01:40:57.880 --> 01:41:00.760 you one day to tell them everything wrong with the house, and I saw 1230 01:41:00.840 --> 01:41:02.359 the mice poop on the second day, so I guess it was a day 1231 01:41:02.439 --> 01:41:08.920 late. But I saw trapped in the garage and there's a family of mice 1232 01:41:09.039 --> 01:41:14.000 living in there. They come inside the house. I told the company about 1233 01:41:14.039 --> 01:41:16.319 it, and then they're like, that's your responsibility, and I'm like this, 1234 01:41:16.760 --> 01:41:20.199 all this stuff was happening before I got Is this an apartment or a 1235 01:41:20.319 --> 01:41:25.199 house? It's a house. Oh, it's a house. And it was 1236 01:41:25.319 --> 01:41:28.600 vacant for two months before I got there. So there was a lot of 1237 01:41:28.640 --> 01:41:31.159 stuff wrong with it that they didn't fix. How'd you find the house? 1238 01:41:32.479 --> 01:41:38.680 I went on renters for rent dot com. Okay, now, how much 1239 01:41:38.760 --> 01:41:44.239 did you pay for a deposit? I paid forty well, I paid all 1240 01:41:44.319 --> 01:41:46.359 together to get in. I paid forty four hundred so that was wow. 1241 01:41:47.079 --> 01:41:54.399 First month, and then the deposit. Wow how much a month is it? 1242 01:41:55.399 --> 01:41:59.479 Twenty two hundred? Okay, So will the landlord, what do you 1243 01:41:59.560 --> 01:42:00.920 want right now? Tell me? I mean, do you want to get 1244 01:42:00.960 --> 01:42:03.239 out of it or what? I want to try to see a fight if 1245 01:42:03.279 --> 01:42:05.720 there's a way I can get out of this, because I don't want to 1246 01:42:05.800 --> 01:42:11.560 go with the rat infestation problem. I don't have. I called the exterminator 1247 01:42:11.640 --> 01:42:14.840 and it's was it a rat or a mice? There's a big difference. 1248 01:42:15.199 --> 01:42:18.119 It's huge. So if it's a mouth when we it's one of them got 1249 01:42:18.159 --> 01:42:21.479 caught in the window, will I mean in the fire escape down there and 1250 01:42:21.560 --> 01:42:26.319 couldn't get out, and so I put a trap down there and I caught 1251 01:42:26.399 --> 01:42:30.960 it. And this thing is a monster. I don't know what it even 1252 01:42:30.079 --> 01:42:32.840 is. It doesn't look like a regular mouse. Even if my dad came 1253 01:42:32.880 --> 01:42:35.399 and looked at and he's like, oh my gosh, that thing is huge. 1254 01:42:35.840 --> 01:42:40.079 And that's not the only one that we saw. There are multiple ones 1255 01:42:40.159 --> 01:42:42.760 that we're seeing it. I can't have my kids living there like that. 1256 01:42:43.399 --> 01:42:45.800 I don't blame you. I don't blame you. They're not and they're not 1257 01:42:45.920 --> 01:42:47.640 trying to do anything about it. They're not trying to help me. I'm 1258 01:42:47.720 --> 01:42:51.279 like, this was an issue that that was going on before we even got 1259 01:42:51.319 --> 01:42:56.039 here. This needed to be taken care of before you re rent this house 1260 01:42:56.119 --> 01:42:59.239 to people. You know, that's this kind of kind of cook it or 1261 01:42:59.520 --> 01:43:02.359 it's very now now it is no. Well, Stephanie, there's no way 1262 01:43:02.399 --> 01:43:05.720 you could have known that. You're right, But but maybe they didn't know 1263 01:43:05.800 --> 01:43:10.760 about it. What do you think They definitely knew about it because they had 1264 01:43:10.880 --> 01:43:14.119 trapped in the garage, and I think, so what about the odor? 1265 01:43:14.199 --> 01:43:18.560 Is the older still there? So what they did was the owner agreed to 1266 01:43:18.960 --> 01:43:24.880 do only the common area. So what he did was he replaced the pads 1267 01:43:25.720 --> 01:43:28.359 from underneath the carpet. Right, what does the common area mean? What 1268 01:43:28.439 --> 01:43:30.560 does that mean? So there's like two living rooms. There's you walk in 1269 01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:33.760 the front door and then that's the first living room. And then you did 1270 01:43:33.840 --> 01:43:38.640 it help the odor? What they did did it help help helped the odor 1271 01:43:39.920 --> 01:43:43.640 on the first floor, But there's still odor on the on the top floor, 1272 01:43:43.800 --> 01:43:46.560 and then in the basement it still smells like like dog.

Three 1314 01:47:05.039 --> 01:47:09.359 h three seven one three talk seven one three eight two five five. Very 1315 01:47:09.479 --> 01:47:15.239 busy show. And we have Brendan Killian with us Killian from Made in the 1316 01:47:15.319 --> 01:47:18.479 Shade. I wanted to mention something somebody wanted to know. Can you do 1317 01:47:20.760 --> 01:47:29.159 these? Can you replace parts of these long swingy shades or older shades in 1318 01:47:29.239 --> 01:47:31.520 a house if they want to keep a vintage look, do you have access 1319 01:47:31.600 --> 01:47:36.119 to parts or see? In my opinion, I'm all for just getting rid 1320 01:47:36.159 --> 01:47:40.760 of crap and getting new, but I don't know like to a certain extent. 1321 01:47:41.039 --> 01:47:45.199 They also somebody wanted to know about wood blinds getting restrung. God, 1322 01:47:45.319 --> 01:47:48.920 that's got to be expensive. It is. It's pretty cost prohibitive. It 1323 01:47:49.079 --> 01:47:53.319 is. If it's as simple like a clutch or a cord, then that 1324 01:47:53.479 --> 01:47:57.359 makes sense if the shade isn't that old, you know. But most people 1325 01:47:57.479 --> 01:48:00.479 they either warranty, like your companies are just going to re make them. 1326 01:48:00.000 --> 01:48:03.399 If it's under warranty, they're not getting it's underw hard to find anyone that 1327 01:48:03.880 --> 01:48:09.920 shade repairs. Do you even sell wood shades anymore? Wood blinds? Are 1328 01:48:09.920 --> 01:48:15.239 they good? Real wood flats? Yeah? Why would to me? It 1329 01:48:15.319 --> 01:48:18.600 seems like I don't know. Are they hard to keep up or do they 1330 01:48:18.760 --> 01:48:23.079 fade? Do they? No? They they're pretty good. Ye, pretty 1331 01:48:23.079 --> 01:48:26.079 pretty good. Yeah. A lot of times people like they'll have shutters and 1332 01:48:26.159 --> 01:48:29.680 then they'll kind of want to mimic that look but at a lower price point, 1333 01:48:29.840 --> 01:48:32.199 like maybe upstairs or in the house, so they'll go with like the 1334 01:48:32.279 --> 01:48:38.359 white like woodblinds or faux wood blinds and then shutters up in front, you 1335 01:48:38.439 --> 01:48:43.159 know, that sort of thing. So okay, And as far as around 1336 01:48:43.239 --> 01:48:47.239 a swimming pool, they have a patio with an en closed swimming pool. 1337 01:48:47.640 --> 01:48:50.960 What do you guys do for that doesn't have to be You can't do regular 1338 01:48:51.079 --> 01:48:54.920 cloth shades, right, I mean can you in a swimming pool area? 1339 01:48:55.000 --> 01:48:59.119 Are there is there material that's water resisting? Oh? Absolutely, yeah, 1340 01:48:59.199 --> 01:49:02.880 like roller shades and whatnot. Yeah, it's almost like a it's not plastic 1341 01:49:03.039 --> 01:49:08.720 to I know, what you made for outdoors is completely weather okay, you 1342 01:49:08.760 --> 01:49:14.159 know retarded, so okay. Yeah, anyway, so Denver Shades dot Co. 1343 01:49:14.560 --> 01:49:15.960 I'll give out his number in a minute. Stephanie, we were talking 1344 01:49:15.960 --> 01:49:23.039 about her apartment house and basically, Stephanie, I've done some research here. 1345 01:49:23.199 --> 01:49:27.560 Now one of the things you can do, We're going to have somebody call 1346 01:49:27.680 --> 01:49:32.439 the landlord and see we have a recommendation they can call to get rid of 1347 01:49:33.439 --> 01:49:38.000 these rats, no matter how bad they are. We got a guy that's 1348 01:49:38.119 --> 01:49:41.520 really good and I know he's listening right now, or he should be, 1349 01:49:42.279 --> 01:49:45.560 and if he is, feel free to call in Brian please you know what 1350 01:49:45.600 --> 01:49:48.119 I'm talking about. Kachina. I don't know if you have him down. 1351 01:49:48.319 --> 01:49:51.920 I do our roadent guy. Why don't you get him on and if he's 1352 01:49:53.039 --> 01:50:00.479 if he answers and Stephanie listen, I think you should start with the warranty 1353 01:50:00.520 --> 01:50:04.680 of habitability thing. Now, let me explain what that means, Okay, 1354 01:50:06.279 --> 01:50:13.039 in basics in Colorado. Now, Colorado has a lot of rights for renters. 1355 01:50:13.119 --> 01:50:17.880 Right now, in Colorado, you are allowed to make a claim under 1356 01:50:18.039 --> 01:50:25.720 a warrant of habitability. You can claim that the situation there is intolerable when 1357 01:50:25.800 --> 01:50:31.239 it comes to odors and when it comes to rats or rodents, call them 1358 01:50:31.359 --> 01:50:41.960 large rodents. And you are respectfully asking the landlord to please remedy the situation 1359 01:50:42.800 --> 01:50:51.399 in a reasonable amount of time within thirty days or you you will start withholding 1360 01:50:51.479 --> 01:50:59.039 rent to make the improvements. Okay. Now, I'm going to tell you 1361 01:50:59.159 --> 01:51:01.680 something. There's a very very specific way you go about this, and you 1362 01:51:01.840 --> 01:51:08.239 can protect yourself from eviction, and then you would use your money and you 1363 01:51:08.399 --> 01:51:11.439 don't just get to take the rent and just live there. A lot of 1364 01:51:11.479 --> 01:51:15.439 people misuse it. But you have to literally use the money to remedy the 1365 01:51:15.560 --> 01:51:19.800 problem. Okay, okay, And in order to do that, we got 1366 01:51:19.880 --> 01:51:24.479 to find out the extent of the problem. So that's where I hope this 1367 01:51:24.600 --> 01:51:30.680 guy Brian can come in and help by at least assessing the situation and maybe 1368 01:51:30.960 --> 01:51:34.840 as far as the odors go, we try someone else that would be like 1369 01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:41.800 maybe a good carpet cleaner like zero res. But we need to get an 1370 01:51:41.840 --> 01:51:45.600 idea of what it will cost, so you need to take some pictures for 1371 01:51:45.760 --> 01:51:48.479 us. How big O'Brien the mouse guy is on right now. Let me 1372 01:51:48.560 --> 01:51:57.159 talk to him. And Hey, Brian, I'm a going Tom good Man. 1373 01:51:57.479 --> 01:52:00.720 Hey, listen, I feel bad for Stephanie. She and her How 1374 01:52:00.800 --> 01:52:03.359 many kids you have, Stephanie? I have two kids in the house. 1375 01:52:04.399 --> 01:52:12.079 She rented a house. Yeah, she rented a house. Tell her how? 1376 01:52:12.279 --> 01:52:14.920 Tell him? How big? If you had to, like, describe 1377 01:52:14.960 --> 01:52:17.840 it. If you make a fist, if you make it, I'm talking 1378 01:52:17.880 --> 01:52:21.520 about the rat or the rodent. If you make a fist, Was it 1379 01:52:21.600 --> 01:52:27.479 that big around? Yeah? It was bigger than a fist you're making me. 1380 01:52:28.640 --> 01:52:31.039 I was sick to my stomach. I was. I couldn't look at 1381 01:52:31.079 --> 01:52:34.199 it. I didn't. I lost my appetite everything. And that thing was 1382 01:52:34.359 --> 01:52:40.760 running around in the the fire's escape. It was stuck in there. Did 1383 01:52:40.800 --> 01:52:44.279 you have a did you have a Does it have a long hairless tail? 1384 01:52:45.680 --> 01:52:51.720 It has a long hairless tail. Yeah, Now, and how many and 1385 01:52:53.159 --> 01:52:56.920 you've seen him running across the floor in your house. Yes, I have 1386 01:52:57.960 --> 01:53:02.239 how many times? This today will have been the third, so I'm not 1387 01:53:02.359 --> 01:53:05.800 sure if it's the same one. By seeing I believe it's a family, 1388 01:53:06.000 --> 01:53:12.079 like it's an infestation because my son seen one in the basement. I've seen 1389 01:53:12.159 --> 01:53:15.319 one run in the kitchen. And then I can hear certain things like in 1390 01:53:15.399 --> 01:53:19.720 the walls. Can you see openings in the walls or anything where they're going? 1391 01:53:21.840 --> 01:53:26.680 I see some like in the bottom on the floor there's little there's like 1392 01:53:26.800 --> 01:53:29.640 little parts where there's a hole. Now, I'm going to tell you something. 1393 01:53:29.720 --> 01:53:31.760 Brian has this keen set. I'm serious, by the way, he 1394 01:53:31.920 --> 01:53:38.720 is really good at detecting. And I know it sounds insurmountable, but that's 1395 01:53:38.760 --> 01:53:43.359 why we want to hook him up with the landlord because he can probably do 1396 01:53:43.560 --> 01:53:47.479 this. It's not going to be extraordinarily extensive like you think. I mean, 1397 01:53:47.560 --> 01:53:49.960 he's got ways of doing this. But here's what I want to know, 1398 01:53:50.079 --> 01:53:55.920 Brian. If she's hearing scratching in the walls, now, without exaggerating, 1399 01:53:56.000 --> 01:54:00.640 Stephanie, how much scratching are we talking about inarticular area or all over? 1400 01:54:01.800 --> 01:54:04.439 I heard it just when the scratching of the wall. I heard it 1401 01:54:04.600 --> 01:54:12.119 by the fireplace in the living room. Okay, okay. And can they 1402 01:54:12.239 --> 01:54:15.039 go out throughout all the walls or do they just pick certain areas? I 1403 01:54:15.079 --> 01:54:19.000 mean, they can't walk through studs for God's sakes, right, No wherever 1404 01:54:19.119 --> 01:54:25.000 there's electrical wiring or any kind of plumbing lines that have gone through the walls, 1405 01:54:25.560 --> 01:54:29.039 typically they open the wall or the unopening that's going to be about an 1406 01:54:29.079 --> 01:54:31.960 inch in a diameter. Well, the wire or the pipe may be much 1407 01:54:32.079 --> 01:54:35.359 smaller than that. And then the road and just go right through those with 1408 01:54:35.479 --> 01:54:39.840 the X ray face around the big fat road and she said was thick, 1409 01:54:40.000 --> 01:54:43.520 bigger than her fist. Can go through those, yep, because they can 1410 01:54:43.600 --> 01:54:48.039 compress their bodies. Oh man, I want to film at her conference like 1411 01:54:48.119 --> 01:54:50.800 that. Yeah, it was really star I go, wow, we got 1412 01:54:50.840 --> 01:54:57.039 through a half inch hole. And it sounds like a horror movie. It's 1413 01:54:57.119 --> 01:55:02.119 not, but it's pretty uh daunting if you're hearing that, and Stephanie, 1414 01:55:02.600 --> 01:55:06.920 if you're hearing the scratching noises, what that basically is is they're just looking 1415 01:55:06.960 --> 01:55:11.720 to uh they're fishing around to get to other places in your place, in 1416 01:55:11.840 --> 01:55:16.560 your home. Where do you live at roughly in general. Yeah, this 1417 01:55:17.119 --> 01:55:24.000 is another thing. We're off of Mark Shuffle and Bradley Road, so there's 1418 01:55:24.079 --> 01:55:27.119 like, no, it's that. I mean, what town are we talking? 1419 01:55:27.560 --> 01:55:30.479 Oh, Colorado Springs? Okay, okay, Brian, you can't Yeah, 1420 01:55:30.920 --> 01:55:33.199 I don't think you go down there. See we got to find someone. 1421 01:55:34.000 --> 01:55:40.720 Yeah, oh gone by a field. So but I ask my neighbors 1422 01:55:40.760 --> 01:55:44.800 if they're having this issue, and both sides they're saying no. So that's 1423 01:55:44.840 --> 01:55:46.960 how I know it's been in this house. Like, I don't know if 1424 01:55:46.960 --> 01:55:53.039 they they've built an underground tunnel to this house or what's going on, but 1425 01:55:53.199 --> 01:55:57.399 they they did tell me that the last tenants didn't take care of the house 1426 01:55:57.600 --> 01:56:01.079 very much at all. So yeah, okay, lot, what haped? 1427 01:56:01.079 --> 01:56:03.840 Brian? Do you guys have a Do you have a counterpart down there? 1428 01:56:04.600 --> 01:56:08.560 We don't. We used to have an office down there, but unfortunately the 1429 01:56:08.600 --> 01:56:12.359 employee. We need someone, But we need someone like Brian because I thought 1430 01:56:12.439 --> 01:56:15.239 this was in Denver somewhere. We need someone who has some insight because I'm 1431 01:56:15.319 --> 01:56:20.800 telling you, there's way more to it than just coming in and uh crapping 1432 01:56:20.880 --> 01:56:29.520 up the place. Yeah, yeah, boy, there's a see right now, 1433 01:56:29.600 --> 01:56:32.399 coming up on the holiday weekend. I'm actually going out of town for 1434 01:56:32.479 --> 01:56:36.199 a bit. I'll be back in after the first of the month, well, 1435 01:56:36.199 --> 01:56:42.680 I should say second week. Let me see what part of Springs are 1436 01:56:42.720 --> 01:56:45.279 you in. Are you on the southern part or more? Yeah, it's 1437 01:56:45.279 --> 01:56:48.800 almost like it's almost to security, but it's not. I don't know if 1438 01:56:48.800 --> 01:56:55.880 you ever have Colorado Center, because I do go down there once a month 1439 01:56:56.039 --> 01:56:59.720 for another client. That's because they're they're so big that we service them with 1440 01:56:59.760 --> 01:57:04.199 that exception and I and I have to look and see when I'm coming down 1441 01:57:04.279 --> 01:57:09.039 there again. Yeah, well, anything's better than nothing. But I wouldn't 1442 01:57:09.199 --> 01:57:12.000 make you do this. I mean, obviously I wouldn't demand anything. I 1443 01:57:12.079 --> 01:57:15.079 mean, I'm just so happy or but but what I'm trying to get an 1444 01:57:15.119 --> 01:57:19.920 idea is how how much can you pretty much tell how bad it is by 1445 01:57:19.960 --> 01:57:24.399 looking around? You can can't? You? I can, I can't. 1446 01:57:25.159 --> 01:57:28.439 And the best thing to do is start stealing up those holes right away so 1447 01:57:28.560 --> 01:57:31.720 they stop getting into the home. And then when you push him outside, 1448 01:57:31.720 --> 01:57:34.720 then you start treating the exterior. And by the way, he doesn't mean 1449 01:57:34.800 --> 01:57:38.960 you do it. There's a very special way of doing it, trust me. 1450 01:57:39.119 --> 01:57:43.880 It's not. It's not easy. But here's where security is. It's 1451 01:57:44.159 --> 01:57:49.319 it's totally almost on the on leaving Colorado Springs to the south, isn't it. 1452 01:57:50.039 --> 01:57:55.840 What's that by fountain? Are you familiar with me? No, it's 1453 01:57:55.880 --> 01:57:58.720 not. It's north of fountain, but it's close. It's not. Yeah, 1454 01:57:58.920 --> 01:58:01.680 it's good. It's snart the fountain quite a bit. But and are 1455 01:58:01.720 --> 01:58:09.359 you along Highway eighty five? Is that Powers Road? I don't know the 1456 01:58:09.520 --> 01:58:13.439 name of that road. I just see it familiar I know anyway. All 1457 01:58:13.479 --> 01:58:16.800 I know is it's Mark Scheffle. It's off of Mark Shuffle Street and Bradley 1458 01:58:16.920 --> 01:58:24.520 Road. Okay, well, we all have GPS's. Let's just do me 1459 01:58:24.600 --> 01:58:30.680 a favor. And you need Brian when should uh? When will you know 1460 01:58:30.720 --> 01:58:33.560 when you're going to be down there next? Well? I just rolled up 1461 01:58:33.560 --> 01:58:36.960 into my next job I got to do. But I can access my my 1462 01:58:38.520 --> 01:58:41.279 schedule and I can get an actual date when I'll be down there. All 1463 01:58:41.319 --> 01:58:44.520 right, Stephanie, do me a favor and just leave all your contact information 1464 01:58:45.039 --> 01:58:47.520 and he's gonna let he'll let Kitchina know when you're going to be when he's 1465 01:58:47.560 --> 01:58:50.039 going to be down there.

By the way, for estate 1486 02:00:23.479 --> 02:00:28.239 planning, Dan McKenzie McKenzie law. Now, I mentioned estate planning because it's 1487 02:00:28.279 --> 02:00:31.920 so important that people don't put that off. And he's got great plans for 1488 02:00:32.079 --> 02:00:36.600 people of all ages. Three O three oh No, his number is easy. 1489 02:00:36.760 --> 02:00:40.039 Listen to this. It's not three or three, it's eight three three 1490 02:00:40.239 --> 02:00:45.119 co plans. But he's live and local eight three three co plans mackenzie Law 1491 02:00:45.239 --> 02:00:55.279 for simple wills or trusts. Okay, Now we question on probate, speak 1492 02:00:55.640 --> 02:01:00.920 of McKenzie law. Go ahead, Nicole, what's going on? Hi? 1493 02:01:00.079 --> 02:01:05.079 Tom My mom died in March and twenty four in Arizona. We're going through 1494 02:01:05.159 --> 02:01:10.600 probate and we went through the notice of creditors that it gives letters up to 1495 02:01:10.640 --> 02:01:16.159 all of her creditors, and we did receive a patient ledger of money that 1496 02:01:16.319 --> 02:01:20.880 is owed back to the estate of one hundred and sixty dollars, and I 1497 02:01:21.079 --> 02:01:29.359 what is that for. It's for she's going through an ice specialist and they 1498 02:01:29.399 --> 02:01:35.119 were overcharging her every time she went since back in twenty twenty one. So 1499 02:01:35.319 --> 02:01:40.439 this is money owed. You're saying, this is money owed to the estate? 1500 02:01:41.920 --> 02:01:45.039 Yes, okay, yes, and they're the ones who provided the information, 1501 02:01:46.079 --> 02:01:50.279 but no check to the estate or to myself because I am personal representative. 1502 02:01:50.359 --> 02:01:55.920 How much are they saying they owe in total? One hundred and sixty 1503 02:01:56.000 --> 02:01:59.720 dollars? You know, I can't even believe they bothered to do that. 1504 02:02:00.000 --> 02:02:02.279 It's very nice of them. I mean, it doesn't seem logical they would 1505 02:02:02.319 --> 02:02:10.000 do that and then not pay right exactly. So my question is with the 1506 02:02:10.119 --> 02:02:14.039 notice to creditors, we have four months for them to come forward saying that 1507 02:02:14.159 --> 02:02:21.560 there is credit or that we owe the company to companies with them not contacting 1508 02:02:21.640 --> 02:02:27.119 me. I have left numerous messages for them to find out if and when 1509 02:02:27.159 --> 02:02:31.279 the money's coming. What is my next step because they're not retreating my phone 1510 02:02:31.319 --> 02:02:34.880 call, so I need to just send a certified letters san Well, answer 1511 02:02:34.960 --> 02:02:40.199 my question. I mean, it's weird. They themselves are the ones that 1512 02:02:40.399 --> 02:02:47.520 told you that they owe one hundred and sixty dollars, so they got to 1513 02:02:47.600 --> 02:02:50.079 want to pay you. They can't be that. I mean, why would 1514 02:02:50.119 --> 02:02:57.279 they even bother mentioning it, because you'd never know, right exactly. Yeah, 1515 02:02:57.359 --> 02:03:00.640 and you've called them up. Yeah, And every time I call, 1516 02:03:00.720 --> 02:03:04.880 I have to leave messages. And it does seem like in this little town 1517 02:03:04.960 --> 02:03:11.079 where my mom was getting her medical treatment, this is normal for doctor's offices. 1518 02:03:11.520 --> 02:03:14.279 Do you have to leave a message and you wait two to three weeks 1519 02:03:15.039 --> 02:03:17.439 for them to call you back if you're lucky, explains why my mom is 1520 02:03:17.479 --> 02:03:24.760 no longer here? When did you what town is it? The doctor's office 1521 02:03:24.880 --> 02:03:30.279 is in Prescott Valley, Arizona. Okay, yeah, in Prescott, Yeah, 1522 02:03:30.640 --> 02:03:35.880 that is that is isolated, although Presco it's pretty nice though. It's 1523 02:03:35.920 --> 02:03:42.479 a nice area. It is beautiful, but they have very limited medical devices, 1524 02:03:42.600 --> 02:03:45.920 Like they didn't have the hydrobaric chambers, which probably could have saved my 1525 02:03:45.960 --> 02:03:50.199 mom's life, but they didn't even have that at their main hospital. How 1526 02:03:50.239 --> 02:03:57.920 big is this clinic? I couldn't tell you. Prescott Valley. There's probably 1527 02:03:58.039 --> 02:04:05.039 just a couple of eye doctors. In the area miles just to go from 1528 02:04:05.079 --> 02:04:12.760 my Unfortunately, unfortunately, there's not any kind of agency or anyone you can 1529 02:04:12.840 --> 02:04:15.479 get. I mean, it would be a probate attorney, which would be 1530 02:04:15.600 --> 02:04:20.359 absolutely ridiculous because we're talking about one hundred thousand dollars. What's that? Yeah, 1531 02:04:20.399 --> 02:04:26.079 I know, I know for a probate was extensive. I couldn't afford 1532 02:04:26.119 --> 02:04:28.479 it. Well, it's not going to be. It wouldn't be that much 1533 02:04:28.520 --> 02:04:35.279 here. But how much is there a state worth? Probably over two hundred 1534 02:04:35.399 --> 02:04:41.039 thousand. We've already sold the house. Are you the personal Are you the 1535 02:04:41.119 --> 02:04:45.199 personal representative? I am? Is this more of a principle to you? 1536 02:04:45.279 --> 02:04:47.600 Because I mean it's one hundred and sixty bucks. I mean, I mean 1537 02:04:47.680 --> 02:04:50.439 you can go to small claim score, but you got to go there to 1538 02:04:50.560 --> 02:04:56.319 go after them. You can do it as the personal representative. Yeah, 1539 02:04:56.439 --> 02:04:58.800 And I thought about that, saying she would just let it go. But 1540 02:04:58.960 --> 02:05:02.039 my sister, well, well, small claims court is definitely your option as 1541 02:05:02.119 --> 02:05:06.920 personal representative. You can sue in small claims court. Okay, it's the 1542 02:05:08.079 --> 02:05:11.319 only thing that's practical, but you have to go to where they are. 1543 02:05:12.880 --> 02:05:15.800 Yeah, and it's not worth my travel down there. Unless I was going 1544 02:05:15.840 --> 02:05:18.199 to say, unless you're going to be down there and you are settling the 1545 02:05:18.359 --> 02:05:24.359 estate. Anyway, I can do everything remote. It's been that easy. 1546 02:05:25.560 --> 02:05:30.760 You know, some small claims courts will let you do zoom. Okay, 1547 02:05:30.640 --> 02:05:35.439 you can call down there to the county clerk of the courts and ask them 1548 02:05:36.399 --> 02:05:42.720 if you can do a remote hearing if you sued someone in small claims court. 1549 02:05:46.920 --> 02:05:49.760 Some of them do that. That's the only thing I can think of 1550 02:05:49.880 --> 02:05:55.239 that would be even near practical. I mean, you know, obviously, 1551 02:05:56.439 --> 02:06:00.000 but but I wish there was kind of a you know, like a judge 1552 02:06:00.079 --> 02:06:05.159 on an overprob But you did you actually open a probate? Yes, we 1553 02:06:05.279 --> 02:06:10.119 had to, Okay, because you're right too. It really I feel like 1554 02:06:10.239 --> 02:06:15.439 an assigned I forgot the terms that they used. But yeah, we had 1555 02:06:15.479 --> 02:06:18.359 an open probate, even though she had a will. Most of the people 1556 02:06:18.359 --> 02:06:21.039 said it didn't matter, we need to probate. Well, no, you 1557 02:06:21.239 --> 02:06:25.239 have to to transfer real estate and all of that, yes, for sure. 1558 02:06:25.560 --> 02:06:30.000 Yeah, and how much that it actually hasn't gone. I had the 1559 02:06:30.159 --> 02:06:33.600 court costs for one hundred and ninety four dollars. So you did this all 1560 02:06:33.680 --> 02:06:40.279 on your own? Yeah? My sister and I both you know, did 1561 02:06:40.359 --> 02:06:45.840 you know that probate you may ask the judge or the clerk for the judge. 1562 02:06:45.760 --> 02:06:54.520 You might be able to issue something through probate that compels them to answer. 1563 02:06:57.159 --> 02:07:01.159 That's a that's another option that you say you are used to filing paperwork 1564 02:07:01.199 --> 02:07:04.720 and stuff. There might be a motion or something you can file that would 1565 02:07:04.760 --> 02:07:13.880 compel a court order. Okay, that's an option to look into. I 1566 02:07:13.920 --> 02:07:15.920 don't know if they're going to do it for allowsis one hundred and sixty bucks. 1567 02:07:15.960 --> 02:07:20.439 And most of the time that happens when the estate owes money and it 1568 02:07:20.520 --> 02:07:24.680 has to collect money to pay money. But it might be worth it. 1569 02:07:24.760 --> 02:07:28.199 Who knows. You may have the judge issue an order. I mean, 1570 02:07:29.159 --> 02:07:34.439 it's it's worth asking, Okay, and then I wish you the best. 1571 02:07:34.479 --> 02:07:39.840 I'm sorry about that, but that's really what I would do at this point. 1572 02:07:40.399 --> 02:07:43.399 Three h three seven one three eight two five five it was in this 1573 02:07:43.520 --> 02:07:45.000 state.

HOA problems are big time pains in the What's going on? 1586 02:09:01.199 --> 02:09:05.399 So? I had a leak and it's been already I think two years in 1587 02:09:05.520 --> 02:09:07.159 my house. They called me from work. I came out. Is this 1588 02:09:07.279 --> 02:09:11.439 a single family home? It's a condo, so there was a unit below 1589 02:09:11.520 --> 02:09:15.439 me. They called me because they could see a leak down there. I 1590 02:09:15.560 --> 02:09:20.119 came home immediately, they turned water off. The president came. She said, 1591 02:09:20.520 --> 02:09:22.159 we're going to call some people out. They called people out. I 1592 02:09:22.279 --> 02:09:26.640 assumed it was under my massive policy because it was a leak behind the walls. 1593 02:09:26.760 --> 02:09:31.000 Two mints went by. They hit me with a bill for thirty thousand 1594 02:09:31.039 --> 02:09:35.960 dollars. Wait, did you just say thirty thousand? Thirty thousand? I 1595 02:09:35.119 --> 02:09:39.239 know the damage was not that extensive because in my house it wasn't fairly anything. 1596 02:09:39.960 --> 02:09:45.800 Now, Shelley, so they're saying that this pipe broke or what what 1597 02:09:46.039 --> 02:09:48.399 happened? Yeah, I'm you know what, I never even got the reports 1598 02:09:48.439 --> 02:09:52.479 from the plumbers or anybody. Okay, but are they Why are they blaming 1599 02:09:52.560 --> 02:09:56.279 your Shelley? I know you want to tell me a lot, just one 1600 02:09:56.359 --> 02:10:00.960 thing at a time. Why are they blaming you for a plumbing leak? 1601 02:10:01.000 --> 02:10:05.039 Yeah? Because it was in my unit? Okay where in your unit? 1602 02:10:07.079 --> 02:10:11.520 It was behind It was in a wall, behind the water heater. And 1603 02:10:11.720 --> 02:10:16.119 what was it that that broke or went bad? Like I said, I 1604 02:10:16.199 --> 02:10:18.119 have no idea one of the pipes. They said it was a rusty pipe. 1605 02:10:18.880 --> 02:10:22.680 Okay what the plumber said, yeah, and they said and the HOA 1606 02:10:22.840 --> 02:10:28.359 said you're responsible for this? Yes? Uh huh? Two months later? 1607 02:10:28.159 --> 02:10:31.920 Mind you? Not even right away? I asked when people were coming out, 1608 02:10:31.960 --> 02:10:35.560 I'm like, who is paying for this? Because I haven't called these 1609 02:10:35.600 --> 02:10:39.640 people out. I didn't call this restoration company and I never got answer, 1610 02:10:39.720 --> 02:10:43.560 so I assumed, Okay, it's master policies paying for this, Shelley. 1611 02:10:43.880 --> 02:10:48.920 It could be that you are responsible, depending on the bylaws. I don't 1612 02:10:50.039 --> 02:10:54.960 know. I mean, it's not a simple I mean it's they're not all 1613 02:10:56.000 --> 02:11:01.119 the same. What I mean, Yeah, there are some policy that the 1614 02:11:01.439 --> 02:11:07.159 HOA covers the stuff inside the walls and you cover everything on the inside. 1615 02:11:07.600 --> 02:11:13.359 There are other policies where you might be responsible. But no matter what though, 1616 02:11:13.880 --> 02:11:20.399 if you are responsible, that's why you have insurance exactly. And I 1617 02:11:20.479 --> 02:11:24.680 did read on the bylaws where you are allowed to call out your own people 1618 02:11:24.760 --> 02:11:28.520 to fix these things. No, no, let's forget about that right now. 1619 02:11:28.159 --> 02:11:33.800 Okay, you they can call anyone they want in an emergency. I'm 1620 02:11:33.840 --> 02:11:37.680 not going Here's well, let's not even go there. I want to know 1621 02:11:37.840 --> 02:11:43.159 this. Have you put an acclaim with your condo insurance? Yours? I 1622 02:11:43.359 --> 02:11:48.880 have State Farm is not going to cover it because the HOA will not give 1623 02:11:48.920 --> 02:11:54.560 them a detailed invoice. Come to find out, RhoA got rid of that 1624 02:11:54.720 --> 02:11:58.479 management company, which was Roquel, got a new management company, and this 1625 02:11:58.640 --> 02:12:01.520 new guy has been very nice to me, and he told me the reason 1626 02:12:01.560 --> 02:12:07.159 why is because Roqual used their own people. Basically is why they're not giving 1627 02:12:07.239 --> 02:12:11.199 me detailed invoices, he said, which is unethical. He's like, in 1628 02:12:11.319 --> 02:12:16.600 thirty thousand, he's like, that's outrageous. Of course it is. So 1629 02:12:16.079 --> 02:12:20.600 these people so, so who wants to be paid this money? Who? 1630 02:12:22.720 --> 02:12:26.359 Now they're my HA board members. Yeah, but why should they care? 1631 02:12:28.279 --> 02:12:31.640 Hold on, Shelley, did your HOA pay for this? Yes? They 1632 02:12:31.680 --> 02:12:37.720 did? Uh huh without a detailed invoice apparently, Yeah, that's why they 1633 02:12:37.760 --> 02:12:43.279 got rid of that management company. But yeah, wait, so the management 1634 02:12:43.359 --> 02:12:46.520 company paid the invoice. No, the HA board members they paid it. 1635 02:12:48.279 --> 02:12:52.439 Why, I have no idea. But now without a detailed without a detailed 1636 02:12:52.479 --> 02:12:58.880 invoice, So the HOA because they paid it without an invoice, your insurance 1637 02:13:00.119 --> 02:13:05.279 saying we're not going to pay it. Yeah, so now they're coming back. 1638 02:13:05.399 --> 02:13:07.680 This new guy was very nice. He told me don't worry about it. 1639 02:13:07.720 --> 02:13:09.880 When they started with this new company, he's like, don't worry about 1640 02:13:09.880 --> 02:13:13.239 it. He's like, you're right, you're not responsible. He's like, 1641 02:13:13.000 --> 02:13:18.199 that's outrageous. He's like, your state farm should have been called. They 1642 02:13:18.279 --> 02:13:20.039 can't do that, He's like, and it's unethical that they called out their 1643 02:13:20.079 --> 02:13:26.520 own company. Whether that's unethical or not, it may not be unethical. 1644 02:13:26.600 --> 02:13:31.279 Okay, you're going in the wrong direction. If you want to fight this, 1645 02:13:31.800 --> 02:13:35.359 there is one direction to go, and that is you deserve to have 1646 02:13:35.520 --> 02:13:41.520 a complete breakdown of everything they did and how much it costs. You deserve 1647 02:13:41.640 --> 02:13:46.920 that, Okay. Let's not go with the unethical or ethical or anything like 1648 02:13:46.000 --> 02:13:50.479 that, Okay, because it's not gonna lead anywhere. You need something that's 1649 02:13:50.560 --> 02:13:56.680 going to lead to a solution. And if we get a detailed invoice of 1650 02:13:56.800 --> 02:14:01.800 what was done, then we know if it's the a's problem or if it's 1651 02:14:01.159 --> 02:14:07.960 your problem, and then your insurance company can decide. But right now I 1652 02:14:07.000 --> 02:14:11.840 don't. They're never gonna get that money from you anyway, and they know 1653 02:14:11.039 --> 02:14:16.479 that. So if they want to be paid, they have to cooperate. 1654 02:14:16.600 --> 02:14:18.960 Did you tell them that that if they want to be paid, they have 1655 02:14:20.159 --> 02:14:26.039 to cooperate and they must have a detailed invoice. Yeah, And if they 1656 02:14:26.079 --> 02:14:31.479 don't get a detailed here's what I fear. I fear that your HOA is 1657 02:14:31.560 --> 02:14:33.920 going to put a lien on your place. Yeah, and that's what they 1658 02:14:35.039 --> 02:14:37.920 threatened before. And I'm like, you know, go ahead sue me. 1659 02:14:37.000 --> 02:14:41.600 I'm like, I don't think you guys will win, because well they may 1660 02:14:41.720 --> 02:14:46.800 win. The problem is you have to you what kind of an invoice do 1661 02:14:46.920 --> 02:14:50.239 they have? Tell me what kind do they have? It was just the 1662 02:14:50.840 --> 02:14:58.399 basic It just said like drywall enterprise, nothing like detailed. What does State 1663 02:14:58.520 --> 02:15:03.000 Farm want? What does State Farms in detailed? She said, if there 1664 02:15:03.199 --> 02:15:05.560 was a strip of paints that they had to use, I want to know 1665 02:15:05.720 --> 02:15:09.159 why and how much that was. Oh man, She's like, I want 1666 02:15:09.239 --> 02:15:16.279 to know how long they used blowers, how much that cost? You know, 1667 02:15:16.399 --> 02:15:18.239 they they you know, State Farm. As much as I hate them, 1668 02:15:18.319 --> 02:15:24.359 they they have a right to know what they're paying for. Exactly, 1669 02:15:24.439 --> 02:15:26.560 Yeah, exactly, I agree with them because I'm like, these people left 1670 02:15:26.640 --> 02:15:31.199 blowers here for a week that weren't even being used, so I know they 1671 02:15:31.359 --> 02:15:35.159 charged. Okay, what's the name of the actual company that did the work. 1672 02:15:37.800 --> 02:15:41.720 I don't remember the actual restoration company. I know it was through Roquel, 1673 02:15:41.920 --> 02:15:46.000 somebody that's part of them. What is rocal? Rokel is the management 1674 02:15:46.079 --> 02:15:56.039 company r O c l R W CL And did you contact them? Oh? 1675 02:15:56.119 --> 02:16:01.039 I contact them numerous times, asking them for detail. Then they are 1676 02:16:01.159 --> 02:16:09.359 uncooperative And why did your HOA get rid of them? Because of that reason? 1677 02:16:09.439 --> 02:16:15.760 They were shady and they didn't like them. Yeah, you have the 1678 02:16:15.920 --> 02:16:20.439 name of the new HOA guy who's or the new manager. Yeah?
