#FOUR DEGREES OF SEPARATION MOVIE#
Bands for Bucks is my way – our way – to support family and those in the community that continue to fight this dreaded fight.īands for Bucks is a full day of live music and family fun! Bands and musicians donate their time, while others donate items for raffles – themed gift baskets, signed sports memorabilia, toys, bicycles, movie passes and other merchandise. Unfortunately, breast cancer, and cancer in general, has been a significant unwelcome part of my immediate and extended family for decades. It was that emotional drive to “do something” that started Bands for Bucks as a tribute to Denise. So that statistic –1 in 8 women will get breast cancer – was more like 1 in 4 in my world. Even some work colleagues were diagnosed with the dreaded disease. Soon after Denise lost her battle, my other cousin – Denise’s sister, Sandy – and then my mom - were diagnosed with breast cancer.
She fought for years and was in remission for the longest time, but before I knew it, Denise had passed away. In October 2009, my cousin, Denise, lost her six-year battle to breast cancer. It is a helpless feeling when someone you love says, "I have cancer.” You are not sure what to do, but know that you want to do something. If you do not see it there, it is legally required to be disclosed within days after you make an offer.This guest post was written by BCRF fundraiser Jasen Viggiani If such a special tax applies, it will often be disclosed up front in the property listing or flyer. It is important to note that in many states, subdivisions less than 10 years old are generally PUDs, and owners therein are often required to pay special taxes or assessments intended to fund the increased burden the subdivision created on police, fire and other municipal services. While HOA dues for PUDs are proportionally much lower than those for condos and co-ops, they generally cover nothing but common area maintenance. Common examples of CC&Rs binding PUD home owners include limitations on exterior paint color, putting up basketball hoops over the garage, and prohibitions on vehicle parking in driveways and on streets. Individual owners are responsible for insuring and maintaining their homes and yards (though front yard maintenance can sometimes be an HOA responsibility), but are bound by relatively non-restrictive CC&Rs. The Homeowners' Association in a PUD usually does little more than hold title to these areas and retain a property manager to maintain and repair them. You may need to seek approval for some interior upgrades or alterations. It's no fun to have to hear the guy upstairs flush the toilet or handle other unmentionables. Communal living is inherently less private, and condos that were converted from rental apartments often lack soundproofing. If the reserves aren't healthy enough to finance a large repair, you could wind up being assessed a significant sum of money (translation: thousands of dollars) in addition to your monthly dues. Other HOAs have deferred maintenance on the property, which can lead to expensive repairs down the line which you, as a member of the HOA, will have to help fund. Some HOAs don't manage money well, or are involved in major litigation that threatens the Association's ability to actually cover large dollar repairs and maintenance items. This contract - between the buyer and the corporation - binds the owner to comply with the bylaws of the co-operative, to pay the co-op's monthly fees for operating and maintaining the building, and to pay the buyer's proportional share of the building's property taxes.Ĭons: Your HOA dues might be more expensive than the total of your water, gas, maintenance and insurance costs would be otherwise the overage usually goes to pay the management company and to create a reserve fund for repairs and maintenance. When you buy shares in a co-op, you obtain the exclusive right to use your particular living unit through a co-operative ownership contract. Instead of "buying" a residential unit in the "co-op," an individual must buy shares of stock or membership shares in the corporation.
(Co-ops can actually be made up of any type of building, but nine times out of ten, a co-op is a high-rise building.) This corporation's members are the owners of the individual apartments or units, hence, the company is known as a "co-operative corporation" and the building and units are called co-operatives. In a co-operative, or "co-op," a corporation owns the entire property, which is usually a building of apartments (also called "co-op"s) and the land beneath them.
