Crisis Or Opportunity – The Truth About The Arizona Real Estate Market

The present real estate market is acting just as it should on the heels of the greatest real estate boom in the last 40 years. There is a long way to fall to get back to “normal”. This falling back into a normal market, coupled with the contraction of the sub-prime mortgage market has the real estate consumer, and many homeowners in a state of fear. The various media continue to depict a very grim picture of the markets in general without distinguishing between the national market and local markets, such as the Arizona real estate market, with factors unique in the ways of population growth and investor activity. I have seen numerous articles referring to the sub-prime debacle as a global crisis. That may be taking it just a bit too far.The truth is, there is no geopolitical significance to recent events in the U.S. real estate market and the sub-prime crisis. To rise to a level of significance, an event — economic, political, or military — must result in a decisive change in the international system, or at least, a fundamental change in the behavior of a nation. The Japanese banking crisis of the early 1990s was a geopolitically significant event. Japan, the second-largest economy in the world, changed its behavior in important ways, leaving room for China to move into the niche Japan had previously owned as the world’s export dynamo. On the other hand, the dot-com meltdown was not geopolitically significant. The U.S. economy had been expanding for about nine years, a remarkably long time, and was due for a recession. Inefficiencies had become rampant in the system, nowhere more so than in the dot-com bubble. That sector was demolished and life went on.In contrast to real estate holdings, the dot-com companies often consisted of no real property, no real chattel, and in many cases very little intellectual property. It really was a bubble. There was virtually, (pun intended), no substance to many of the companies unsuspecting investors were dumping money into as those stocks rallied and later collapsed. There was nothing left of those companies in the aftermath because there was nothing to them when they were raising money through their publicly offered stocks. So, just like when you blew bubbles as a little kid, when the bubble popped, there was absolutely nothing left. Not so with real estate, which by definition, is real property. There is no real estate bubble! Real estate ownership in the United States continues to be coveted the world over and local markets will thrive with the Arizona Real Estate market leading the way, as the country’s leader in percent population growth, through the year 2030.As for the sub-prime “crisis”, we have to take a look at the bigger picture of the national real estate market. To begin with, remember that mortgage delinquency problems affect only people with outstanding loans, and more than one out of three homeowners own their properties debt-free. Of those who have mortgages, approximately 20% are sub-prime. 14.5% of those are delinquent. Sub-prime loans in default make up only about 2.9% of the entire mortgage market. Now, consider that only 2/3 of homeowners have a mortgage, and the total percentage of homeowners in default on their sub-prime loans stands at around 1.9%. The remaining two-thirds of all homeowners with active mortgage prime loans that are 30 days past due or more constitute just 2.6% of all loans nationwide. In other words, among mortgages made to borrowers with good credit at application, 97.4% are continuing to be paid on time.As for the record jumps in new foreclosure filings, again, you’ve got to look closely at the hard data. In 34 states, the rate of new foreclosures actually decreased. In most other states, the increases were minor — except in the California, Florida, Nevada, and Arizona real estate markets. These increases were attributable in part to investors walking away from condos, second homes, and rental houses they bought during the boom years.Doug Duncan, chief economist for the Mortgage Bankers Association, says that without the foreclosure spikes in those states, “we would have seen a nationwide drop in the rate of foreclosure filings.” In Nevada, for instance, non-owner-occupied (investor) loans accounted for 32% of all serious delinquencies and new foreclosure actions. In Florida, the investor share of serious delinquencies was 25%; in Arizona, 26%; and in California, 21%. That compares with a rate of 13% for the rest of the country. This makes for some great buys for the savvy Arizona real estate investor in the area of short sales, foreclosures, and wholesale properties.Bottom line: Those nasty foreclosure and delinquency rates you’re hearing about are for real. But they’re highly concentrated among loan types, local and regional economies, and investors who got their foot caught in the door at the end of the “boom” and are just walking away from those poorly performing properties. Most of those investors still have homes to live in, maybe more than one.In the wake of the boom years, we now have a high inventory of homes on the market, Investors and speculators who quickly bought up homes dumped them just as quickly back on the market in hopes of a fast return. The frenzy of investors purchasing homes put pressure on inventories and drove prices up, further increasing investor activity. Then, as if all at once, many of those investors put their properties on the market, creating an imbalance in the reverse direction. With so many homes on the market, prices began to stall and then fell. Prices will continue to fall until demand chews up excess inventories.With investors no longer a big part of housing demand, primary homeowners are slowly chipping away at the existing inventory. The Las Vegas housing market will rebound in March 2008, according to the largest and most respected appraisal firm locally. The main contributing factor to the sooner than later rebound of this southwestern city is a growing population and thriving local economy.Arizona and Nevada are expected to lead the country in percentage population growth for the next 20-25 years. The population of Arizona is expected to approximately double during that time so we can expect a strong housing demand going forward. Normal inventory levels for Phoenix real estate are about 6-8 months. Current inventory is about 10-12 months. So, we are not far above “normal” inventories in Phoenix. There are, however, outlying cities in this large metropolis that have inventories in excess of 1 year. Queen Creek real estate inventory is the worst with approximately a 2-3 year surplus of homes on the market, mostly due to the large percentage of new homes purchased by investors and then quickly flipped back onto the resale market. Surprise and Peoria real estate markets have a 1-2 year inventory for largely the same reason. We are already seeing some Scottsdale real estate and Paradise Valley real estate prices increase in value. Billions of dollars are being poured into the local economy in the way of commercial development from the downtown area to Northeast Phoenix and Scottsdale.The demand for Arizona homes will remain strong in years ahead as new populations create the need. The demand for housing across our great nation will remain strong as this next generation of young debutantes steps onto the home buying stage. Interest rates are still at historic lows and the lending institutions will continue to offer creative financing options. Sure, some hedge funds lost the air in their tires, but financing sub-prime loans is a high stakes game for the super rich and is not of geopolitical significance. They will find other ways to lend their billions for huge profits in the wake of this sub-prime debacle. Let’s not be gripped in the fear created by reports from all media types trying to “make news”. Let’s face it, the real numbers are not that bloody exciting. Ask yourself, is this an Arizona real estate crisis, or the perfect time to buy an affordable Arizona home? Proper timing and negotiating techniques make all the difference in the current Arizona real estate market. When choosing an Arizona realtor, trust the expertise and experience of Equity Alliance Properties.

An Interview With Techno-romantic Thriller Author Denise Robbins on Merging Technology and Fiction

Denise Robbins, a software engineering manager by day, integrates her knowledge of computers and technology into all her techno-romantic thriller novels. Her published works include It Happens in Threes and Killer Bunny Hill with Connect the Dots and Never Tempt Danger scheduled for release in 2010.I saw down with Denise and asked about the unique combination of technology and fiction.Your computer background has obviously been a big factor in the plots of your books. How did you become interested in technology?
It all started when I was a kid. In elementary school we went on a field trip to an electronics shop. In there, we saw all kinds of cool gadgets like small calculators, electronic games, and then… a computer. Holy cow! I could play chess on the computer.About that same time, my dad brought home a modem. I’m not talking the modems you pick up today that fit in the palm of your hand, we’re talking a behemoth of a machine that looked like a typewriter with a phone coupler attached to it.Some readers may not understand the significance of computers in fighting crime. Explain how important an understanding of new technologies can be in staying ahead of the bad guy.
Computers are used a great deal more than people think in regards to fighting crime. One simple example is the FBI’s website that gives the public information on some of the criminals they are searching for. This website not only informs the public, but now there are large numbers of people on the lookout for the ‘bad guys.’Local police departments have computers in every patrol car, which can be used in different scenarios. Remember the last time you were pulled over? The police officer can put your license plate into the computer and check if the car was stolen, your driving record, or even your car registration. A police officer making a routine stop may not seem like any big deal or use for computer technology, but what you may not realize is that the same computer that told the officer the car was stolen, can also provide arrest and warrant information. Information attained via the computer by the officer makes him/her more capable of making the right decision of how to approach the situation.Computers also give law enforcement the resources and technology needed to keep up with modern day criminals in the cyber world. Some criminals steal people’s identities or purchase goods with someone else’s credit cards over the Internet. Internet felons commit all sorts of crimes such as downloading child pornography, even trying to convince minors to meet them somewhere, which could result in abduction. Without computers, it would be nearly impossible to catch felons of this nature. Through computers law enforcement agencies can watch these actions and make the web safer.Because of computers and instant access to large amounts of information, law enforcement agents have the power to turn a possible dangerous situation into a much safer one sooner rather than later.Explain a little about nanotechnology and its current uses.
Nanotechnology is a technology based on the manipulation of individual atoms and molecules to build structures to complex, atomic specifications. The nanoscale is about a thousand times smaller than micro that is, about 1/80,000 of the diameter of a human hair.Items already available in the marketplace include: burn and wound dressings, water filtration, dental-bonding agent, coatings for easier cleaning glass, bumpers and catalytic converters on cars, protective and glare-reducing coatings for eyeglasses and cars, sunscreens and cosmetics, stain-free clothing and mattresses, ink, longer-lasting tennis balls, and lightweight and stronger tennis rackets.A ski jacket produced by Franz Ziener GmbH&Co is based on nanotechnology. The windproof and waterproof properties are not obtained by a surface coating of the jacket but by the use of nanofibres.The company InMat makes long-lasting tennis-balls by coating the inner core with clay polymer nanocomposites. These tennis-balls have twice the lifetime of conventional balls.What do you see happening with nanotechnology in the future?
Today, we have just scratched the surface on what nanotechnology will do for us. There are many nanotechnology applications in research and development. In the field of medicine, there will be Qdots that identify the location of cancer cells in the body and Nanoparticles that deliver chemotherapy drugs directly to cancer cells to minimize damage to healthy cells. Can you imagine not having to expose the entire body to chemotherapy but only the part that requires the treatment?Nanotechnology is huge in the science and technology area as well, in particular, manmade diamonds. In recent years, there has been research into producing manmade diamonds, no, not cubic zirconia, but “real” diamonds grown in a lab and not in nature. Manmade diamonds is a huge breakthrough that will only get bigger. The diamond has the largest thermal conductivity of any material. With every improvement in computer chip technology, the machines get faster and hotter. At some point the chips and computer insides will melt. Diamonds are the answer for faster computers without the heat factor. For the same thermal conductivity reason, manmade diamonds could help make lasers of extreme power. The material could allow a cell phone to fit into a watch and iPods to store 10,000 movies, not just 10,000 songs.I could go on, but you get the idea. Nanotechnology is the next great wave and I’m hoping it hits soon.What are some of the challenges in blending cutting-edge technology with fiction?
The challenge in creating techno-fiction is knowing how to keep the story moving at the same time giving enough of a visual picture of the technology so the reader understands without dumping boring information on top of their head.It seems like the field of technology is more of a man’s world. How did you end up in the field and why do you think there aren’t more women involved?I think since my dad was in technology, not the same as I am involved today, I was destined for computers.Taking a job with a government contractor for the Department of Defense hooked me on technology. I was part of a team that built software for use in military medical facilities. It was when I taught computer programs and programming to adults that I found my love for all that ‘geeky’ computer stuff. There is nothing like watching the spark in somebody’s eyes as the light bulb goes on inside their head after they have learned to write code and see the result.Why there are not more women in science and technology is a question that has been asked quite a lot in recent years. One simple answer is how parents and teachers present information technology professions and other occupations to their daughters and students. It is about encouraging and providing role models.
Another explanation for the lack of women in information technology careers is misconception and preference. Why do I say that as if they are com-mingled? Many people believe working in IT is solitary. They imagine someone sitting in front of a computer eight hours or more a day with no one to talk with. Ask any of the engineers that work for and with me and they will let you know that is not the case.In general, women prefer to work with people while men prefer to work with things. With the solitary misconception out there, many women are choosing other careers.Do you have a lot of male readers because of your interesting plots? How do you draw them in?
To be honest, I am not certain that I have too many male readers yet, but I have a few and I want more. I think once the guys know that my novels are based on interesting and real technology, have suspense and mystery woven in with action and adventure that they will want to read them. All it takes is a few good men… to spread the word.While my novels are fiction, when my hero or heroine is shooting a weapon, all readers should know that I have done the research and had the experience several times. My first time shooting anything, but a shotgun at skeet (of which I am a very good shot), was when I wrote It Happens in Threes. I had to know what it felt like. I contacted a friend who taught me all the various right and wrongs and who enjoyed seeing me struggle filling a clip and always forgetting to take the safety off.Right now, my attempt at “drawing them in” is to give a guy I see a copy of the book, ask him to read it, and let me know what he thinks. So far, the response has been positive. The other little tidbit that helps draw the men in as that I have other men review and edit my novels for the male perspective. It always helps me when Steve or David say, “No guy would say that.” Then they wrinkle their noses and slash away at my work. I am very grateful. I also have friends who are former military and they correct some of my ideas as well.How do you handle the fine line between giving too much technological information and making the story flow?
This is an excellent question. Computer stuff can be very dry and boring, take it from me. What I do is take technology and introduce the readers to it in small pieces, like breadcrumbs of information, so that technology is part of the mystery or part of the solution in the puzzle. I take the technology and break it down so my characters show you just enough to make you understand, and at the same time get curious. Wait until you find out about nanotechnology in Killer Bunny Hill. I’ll give you a hint – Diamonds aren’t just a girl’s best friend.Where do you come up with your story ideas?
My story ideas come from various places and most the time it is just a matter of sitting down with pen and paper and asking myself about the particular characters I have just identified in my mind. Sometimes, as in the case of my second novel Killer Bunny Hill, the seed for novel will just hit me while flying across the country on a plane. In the case of my fourth novel Never Tempt Danger, the idea came from a dream. Those are just the beginnings, now I have to construct a story line and that takes a little more effort.Sometimes I take from my own experiences with technology, but that is still limited in scope. So what do I do? Well, here is my answer.I did some research once for work when I accidentally ran across an article on ‘manmade diamonds’ and using them as computer chips. As I continued to read the story, I found out about an organization known as DARPA, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. This agency is the central research and development office for the Department of Defense. They fund all kinds of technology research in order to keep our military technologically superior and in turn keep us safe and military personnel safe. Cool stuff!Thanks for taking the time to talk with me today, Denise!

Payday Loan Consolidation – How It Works

A payday loan can be a real life-saver when your monthly budget is hit by an uninformed roof leak or a medical emergency. There’s ready cash available to tide you over the immediate financial crisis. It is a high interest loan, but well, so long as things are taken care of till your next pay check arrives!

The deadline for repayment is generally when your next salary is due. If you are unable to pay it, it is carried forward.

The problem with payday loans is that it can be a vicious cycle. Before you realize you have signed up for multiple loans, making it very difficult for you to keep up with timely payments and fees. The ease with which you can obtain one is partly to blame.

How do you pay off these loans?

Payday loan consolidation is the solution for individuals who have accumulated huge debts. However, you need to first understand how it works.

The counselor will first evaluate your financial situation. This includes validating loans and ensuring which ones are still active. The company pays off your outstanding debts; so all your loans are rolled into one against new terms. You are then only liable to one credit agency.

A high interest rate is a distinctive feature of this type of loan. A company that works towards consolidation will first look for ways to reduce the rate of interest against which the amount that was loaned to you; thus, your loan is easier to pay back. It can also help you forgo additional charges and fees. To add, they give you sufficient time to payback your loan. So, at a lower rate and more time to pay up, your monthly installments are going to be smaller.

In payday loan consolidation too, you have two options:

· Secured loan consolidation includes securing loans against some value property such as your house or car etc. The rate of interest is low; however, in event of failure to repay, you will lose the property held as a collateral security.

· Unsecured loan consolidation which is offered without requiring a collateral security. The rate of interest is slightly higher than the first option but lower than that charged by payday loan lenders. It is a great option for one with a good credit score.

You can consolidate the loans yourself or get payday loan debt help from companies that offer such services. If you choose the latter, they will handle everything for you right from handling communication with your lenders to paying off your loans.

The bottom line is a payday loan consolidation company does not write off your debts. They work with you and your lender to create a payment plan that is affordable.

Now if you want to get the best settlement soon, you need to choose your payday loan consolidation company with care. You need to make sure the company is registered. This step helps ensure the financial institution is authentic. Be clear about the fees you pay towards the settlement. Payday loan consolidation should be based on your financial situation. The company should not work with a one-size fits all approach. If they force you to accept the terms and conditions in place, avoid the company and look for another. If the company is trying to sell you stuff other than payday loan consolidation services, it is a red flag.

So, if you’ve mounted debts and are unable to repay the loans, don’t get bogged down by the phone calls and repayment agents. Schedule a free counseling session with a payday loan consolidation company and end your stress.

National Payday Loan Relief is a payday loan consolidation company that can help you get your finances back in control. They prove that filing for bankruptcy is not the way out of debt. They understand that every situation is unique and thus devise debt repayment plans that have your best interests in mind. Not only this, they will act as financial counselors advising you on the best ways to secure loans in future, so that risk is reduced to the minimum.

Payday Loans – The Benefits And Risks

Living on paycheck can present challenges, especially when instant cash is needed in situations that really can’t wait until the next pay date. Running out of cash is not uncommon, but when an emergency arises, you will need that boost and sometimes it can be hard to get. This is where payday loans come into the picture to rescue the situation. They are quick loans that offer short terms financial support until the next paycheck.

The payday loans come with varying repayment terms depending on the provider you settle for but the truth is that you are most likely to pay back in a as little as two weeks. They of course can be paid in installments and they do attract interest. The total amount you can enjoy from the loans can be determined by your salary and the financial situation you may be in. They have become very popular, but the least you can do before going for one are getting familiar with the benefits and the risks involved when taking them up.

Payday loan benefits

These loans come in handy in emergency financial situations and they are quite discreet. You do not have to worry about your close friends and family knowing about your financial crisis when you can easily access the payday loans discreetly.
The loans can be enjoyed with any collateral requirement. All you need to do is fill a simple application form for an evaluation and you qualify for a reasonable short term loan. You can actually enjoy no credit check payday loans where the lender does not rely on your credit history to give you the financial assistance you need. As long as you have a salary to repay the loan, you qualify for it.
The loan processing is quick and easy so you can access the money when you need it most. You do not have to worry about long loan processing processes when dealing with the short term loans. Sometimes it may only take a few hours for your application to be approved and for the funds to be channeled to you. This is something you really can’t say with bank loans.
Payday loan risks
The loans do not offer ideal cover for long term financial issues. They are most suitable for urgent fund shortfalls for working people and relying on them continuously may mean more financial trouble for some.
Since the loans do not require any collateral or a good credit history, they tend to come with very high interest rates. If you are not very careful when choosing a lender, you could end up with a loan that is just too challenging to repay.
They can affect credit score when you are late on a payment and incur penalties. Some lenders may not require a clean credit history, but these are loans and failing to adhere to repayment can impact your credit score negatively. It is something that can affect access to funding even from banks and other institutions in the long run.
When looking for a payday loan, it is important to first evaluate the financial crisis you are in to determine whether the short term loan is what you really need to fix it. Sometimes you may need some serious expense changes to fix your need for funding. It is most advisable that you stick to the loans only when it is absolutely necessary to get one and when it is the only reasonable financial solution at that present moment. Take time to compare lenders to get yourself better loan and repayment terms that suit your financial status.
No credit check payday loans can be quite beneficial for individuals who do not have impressive credit scores. It is still however very important to choose a lender whose terms work for you.

When And How To Make Payday Claims

Payday loans have without doubt become very popular especially because they are easy and quick to get. Whereas they are short term loans that are supposed to save individuals from difficult financial situations that can’t wait, they do attract a very high interest rates. With so many lenders now offering the loans, if you are not careful with the loans you could end up with debts that spiral out of control. A good number of people find themselves in more financial difficulties when they get hooked to the payday loans.

Luckily, if you feel your payday loan is not yielding the kind of results you expected because of one issue of another, it is possible to apply for a refund. The refunds are usually based on mis-selling by the lender or the payday loan providers and they can work on saving you from an agonizing financial situation. You can claim a refund if:

You feel the payday loan costs are ever increasing and sending you into more debt, thus making living a struggle for you. If you can hardly maintain your household bills and daily expenses because of repayments then you can claim for refund.
Repayments are automatically deducted from your credit card or bank account by your lender leaving you with insufficient funds to survive on.
You qualified for the payday loan even though you were suffering ill health or while you were on low incomes and benefits. All lenders are required to go through an evaluation process wisely to ensure that you can actually repay the loan as indicated.
The payday loan proved unaffordable and you really cannot repay without being subjected to undue difficulties. Whereas the loans come with high interests, some lenders charge hefty rates and attach other fees to the loans making them quite unaffordable in some circumstances.
The lender encouraged you rolling over the loan, thus resulting in more fees on your side. The lending terms should be clear for you and no lender should offer solutions just so they can reap you off in the end when you thought they were actually helping you out.
You have to borrow more funds to pay important bills like utility bills, rent and council tax just because you are servicing a payday loan.
Making the complaint
First, you would need to write a letter to the lender as a way of trying to sort out the issues at hand. Let the lender know where they have failed as per best practice charter and the set rules for such loans and express how you wish to resolve the problem. You can review repayments plans so you are able to pay what you can afford at convenient times.

If the lender fails to respond or sort out the problem as requested, you can take the complaint further to the financial ombudsman service. The office will look into the complaint and offer advice to sort it out and final decisions made binds the lender.

In case you still are not satisfied with the decision by the ombudsman service, you can take lender to court. It however should be your very last resort when making a claim because court cases can be long and tedious and they also come with charges. It helps to seek professional advice first before making it a court case.

There are very good claims management companies that can help you get the compensation you want without any court proceedings. If you decide to settle for such a provider, ensure that they have impressive success rates and their services are affordable and reasonable enough for you.

Everything To Know About Payday Loans Online

Payday Loans are the loans which are granted for a very small amount of time on the guarantee that they would be repaid as soon as the next salary or income from their source of earning. Such loans have an extremely high rate of interest and are called by different names such as payday advance, payroll loan, salary loan, small dollar loan or cash advance loan. A payday loan can be offered to anybody irrespective of their credibility. The bank does not see the credit worthiness of the borrower in case of granting this type of loan as it is granted for only 15-20 days and is not long term. The borrower should, however, keep in mind that taking a payday loan would not increase his credibility in the market. He, nevertheless, should have a steady income, permanent bank account and a work experience of at least 6 months to avail this loan.

Online payday loans are becoming more and more popular these days. One the best thing about online payday loan is its simple application process. The application takes less than 5 minutes to complete and the portal is usually open 24 hours a day. The borrower can simply file the application for the loan online and the funds are transferred by direct deposit to the borrower’s account. The repayment of loan in such a case is directly withdrawn electronically from the borrower’s account after he gets his next salary or after his post-dated cheque becomes mature. A list of the Direct Payday Lenders is as follows:

Check Cash: They give their approval application within 5 minutes by providing loans online or at their offices is U.S.
CashAdvance.com: They provide an online payday loan once the customer is approved by checking his valid account and not any prepaid or savings account.
Cash Central: This is one of the oldest payday lenders in the country with a 24*7 online application portal.
MypaydayLoan: This too provides the customer with an approval response within 4 minutes of a completed application form. It is one of the largest of its kind in the country.
Blue Trust Loans: It funds loans between $300 to $1250 in almost every state. With a payoff time of 6 months approx.., these loans have no penalty for repayment.
MoneyLion: They offer loans to almost every state in the country with varying rates and terms in each state. It has loan programs available for consumers on all ends of the credit score spectrum.
Net Credit: It provides an instant approval decision with no borrowing limits for first timers. Applicants are eligible for $1000 to $10000 loans.
Maxlend: They have many different loans and terms and credit worthiness is not a criterion which is considered. It offers personal loans up to $1300.
There are some jurisdictions which limit the amount of interest charged on loans including payday loans. Depending on the method used, the annual percentage rate (APR) of each loan may be different. In U.S.A, for example, the Uniform Small Loans Laws (USLL) has fixed the APR between 36% to 40%. The major advantages that these types of loans provide major profitability to the industry, welfare for the households is increased as people who do not require short term loans can avail long term loans easily and it provides a service which is unavailable in the market as the requirement of the loan is usually by people who have exhausted all their other options of buying short-term credit. This type of loans is also criticized by some people on the ground that they drain money from the low-income group communities by charging exorbitantly high rate of interest. Also, in some countries, the collection practices of the lenders are extremely aggressive unlike in countries like U.S where there is a standard collection practice set by the law

5 Tips To Get a Same Day Loan

The good news about same day loans is that some lenders offer them 24/7. No one can predict emergencies, and we don’t have the time to get ready to deal with emergencies. In these situations, you have to have a lot of money on you. If you don’t have enough funds on you, you can apply for a same day loan. Given below are some tips that may help you get a same day loan.

You should make a list of some good lenders. As a matter of fact, it will be easier for you to do the research and note down the names of some good lenders when you are relaxed. Nowadays, it’s not hard to look for lenders online. All you have to do is enter your personal information and the sites will provide you with the results.
