You forgot to mention that the Mexicans can get federal backed home loans with no money down. They are buying up properties all over the place. The new scam is that the Realtor will tell the seller that they have an out of town buyer and the next thing you know old Jose from down the street ( plus ten of his friends) own the house next door. Then come ten people living in the house along with ten cars. The neighborhood is affected as property values drop.

I know that in Texas, an employer has to fill out and return to the state quarterly forms for unemployment insurance. Guess the ones in Texas, at least, have to change their SS # every quarter. Not sure if I totally believe this.
