RIP Charles Keating: The Developer of Dobson Ranch Here In Mesa

Your MesaZona blogger likes the way that Jon Talton, The Rogue Columnist, got nostalgic in-his-own-way about the passing of one of The Valley of Sun's most infamous, disgraced and jailed public figures back in article from 03 April 2014.
Just like more than a few public lawmakers, politicians and real estate entrepreneurs operating today he was an outwardly likable man who everyone praised for his love of faith and family. . . 
QUESTION: Who, dear readers, might be operating today  'under that cover' of being outwardly like-able at the same time escaping scrutiny?

HERE IN MESA: A New Start-Up Evercore

How 2 Math Grads are Disrupting the Auto Insurance Industry

Friday Jul 28, 2017

Phoenix, Arizona – Recent articles indicate that only 5% of drivers pay less than $50 a month for car insurance – but EverQuote is changing that.

Are you aware that you could receive a large discount just for using this new startup's service? In addition, if you are currently insured and live in a qualified ZIP code you may get an extremely high discount.
Original source > https://article.everquote.com/

For a long time, there was no easy way to compare quotes from all of these huge car insurance companies. You had to check one site, then jump to another and enter all of your information all over again. Drivers were stuck doing all the work to save money. Now, all that is changing. Thanks to this new startup,
EverQuote™, the information you need to help you save can be found in one place. EverQuote™ is not an insurer, but a comparison shopping marketplace. Featured in the Inc. 5000 list as one of the fastest growing companies for 2016, it is not a question that customers are finding what they are looking for - lower quotes.
What exactly do you need to do?
Drivers don’t always realize that they may be overpaying for car insurance. If it’s been more than 6 months since you’ve compared quotes, even if you have a low rate, you could still be paying too much. Fortunately, millions of smart drivers have used EverQuote's free service to save hundreds on their insurance bills.
It’s really no wonder that with so many drivers saving money, EverQuote™ is gaining momentum. EverQuote™ is an efficient source that tries to give consumers the lowest rates with tools you can trust. Just imagine what you could do with the money you save!

Report from Tax Foundation: Home Mortgage-Interest Deduction

Which Which States Benefit Most from the Home Mortgage Interest Deduction?

10.08.2017 by Amir Sibaie

Source: https://taxfoundation.org
"Earlier this week, we reported that the Trump administration may consider reducing the cap on the home mortgage interest deduction from a maximum of $1 million acquisition debt to $500,000. We estimated that this proposal could raise as much as $95 billion to $300 billion over the next decade, depending on how the cap is structured. We also found that the tax increase would primarily fall on high-income taxpayers because they are more likely to own larger homes and have more mortgage debt. Middle- and lower-income taxpayers would be much less likely to face a tax increase.
Changes to the home mortgage interest deduction would also impact certain parts of the country differently. There is a large degree of geographic disparity in who claims the mortgage interest deduction. . .  a map that shows the average deduction amount taken per tax return, or the total amount of home mortgage interest deducted in a state divided by the number of tax returns in a state.
Two primary factors influence how much home mortgage interest is deducted in a state: state housing prices and state income levels.
Regional housing prices directly impact mortgage interest payments . . .
Income levels also impact the amount a state claims in mortgage interest. Higher-income taxpayers are more likely to purchase larger homes and have more mortgage debt . . . "
