Thank you so much for keeping us posted. Great letter by Tim Egan which represents my opinions and concerns!
Hi Melissa – Thanks for your comment and please check back often for future updates of the bill. Thanks, FCS-Samuel
It is important SB12 does not pass, it will be more harmfull to creditors and buyers if it goes into effect. When we process Bulk Sales, 99% of the time creditors are all paid when we have sufficient funds to do so and proper notices sent to all State Departments, etc.after recording and publication giving notice to creditors. Creditors do have sufficient time to file a judgment lien against the seller if not paid in full. Keep us informed and updated. Thanks!
