eQuest Releases Employment Index Results for October 2011

eQuest Releases Employment Index Results for October 2011

San Ramon, CA (PRWEB) November 16, 2011

eQuest today announced its employment findings for October 2011 as published in its Employment Index, which can be viewed in its entirety at:

http://www.equest.com/news/employment-index-us/

http://www.equest.com/news/employment-index-uk/

eQuest’s US Employment Index showed continued positive movement in the recruitment space moving forward to 102.03 from 101.81. This gain was achieved in October with stronger than expected job postings but offset somewhat by increased in applicant traffic.

The number of new job requisitions was spread across a wide span of industries in the US demonstrating continued consistency of minimal but steady growth from July. The Healthcare industry showed the strongest growth through the month with a significant increase in overall job postings. Surprisingly, the real estate industry additionally showed strong growth in posting volume throughout the month. Production and manufacturing-based industries continue to occupy the bottom of the Employment Index driven by a continued lack of a significant number of new positions being added to the marketplace. Geographically, states with the highest hiring demand in September were Idaho, New Mexico and Arizona while Missouri, Mississippi and Alabama had the lowest demand for employees.

The UK index showed an expected uptick in job postings but this was reversed by a larger increase in the applicant traffic across the region. The result was a small decline in the in the UK Index from 98.92 to 98.76. Growth has remained consistent across most industries in the UK; however the results have varied greatly regionally. London continues to make the greatest gains in both posting and applicant traffic as the summer moves forward showing economic progress. Eden, East Devon and Ryedale again posted the highest level of employee demand, while Nottingham, Kingston upon Hull and Liverpool remained at the bottom of the regional list for candidate demand.

About the eQuest Employment Index

Missouri Mechanics Lien Law Changes

Missouri Mechanics Lien Law Changes

The Missouri Legislature passed a new provision regarding mechanic’s liens that not only have a profound effect on the sub-contractors in the state of Missouri, but also on us as Real Estate Investors.  The construction trades state that the statute is a nightmare for the construction industry, and it will probably be no walk in the park for the Property Owner either.

First the law discusses residential properties.  These are painted with a broad brush to include not just houses, but apartments, condos, streets, sidewalks, and “and other facilities within the defined residential use structure or located on or within the separate and identifiable parcels identified as and for residential use.”  So does that mean sheds, garages, fences, etc?

The new mechanic’s lien legislation in Missouri will make it much harder for everyone, the subcontractor, the material supplier, and the property owner.  It went into effect on August 28 and will come into play on real estate closings that happen on or after November 1st.  It was supposedly promoted by the general contractors and the title companies that somehow gain at the expense of the subcontractor and material supplier. 

 So what’s the problem?

 There are two new rulings coming into play.  First the property owner (that’s us the investor) must file a “Notice of Sale.”  Second the subcontractor or supplier must file a “Notice of Rights”. 

 With the “Notice of Sale”, the new law says that if a property owner plans on selling the real estate, then the owner must give a 45 day notice to the world by filing a “Notice of Sale”.  So this is going to be new cost and hassle for the real estate investor.  Buy the house, get comparables, figure out what you are going to do to it, hire the contractors to rehab it, and run down and file a piece of paper to let the world know you plan on selling it.  But since we are buying to sell, when are we going to sell, do we know that exact date 45 days in advance.  Probably not, so is it ok to buy today and file the “Notice of Sale” tomorrow even if it could be 45 days, 120 days, or a year before the sale?

 With the “Notice of Rights”, the contractor must file at least five days before the closing date, or sooner.  If the contractor fails to file in this time frame, all mechanic’s lien rights are lost.  So what if a contractor is working on a job that will be a long 6 month project, and the building is sold to a new owner, with work ongoing?  How does the contractor or supplier find out about the owner filing a “Notice of Sale”.

The old law gave the suppliers and contractors six months after the job was complete or the materials supplied to file a lien.  Now the supplier or contractor must file this lien at least 5 days before closing.

So not it seems that rather than buying and selling houses and going out bidding jobs to contractor or supply, that investors, contractors and suppliers are going to be spending a lot of time filing Notices.  When the investor buys and plans on selling, first thing we do is go file a “Notice of Sale”.  Not sure when we are going to sell, but we are!  Then the contractors and suppliers the day before they start a job or supply a material must go file their “Notice of Rights”, not sure if the owner is going to pay or not, but we have to file this in order to have the right to file a mechanics lien within finishing the job.

All these filings will probably muddle up title.  Make a hard job even harder.  And make it harder to do business in Missouri.  If we work in Missouri, it’s the new rules we have to play by.  As investors, contractors, and suppliers we need to check with our title companies to see how to file all these “Notices”, are there special forms?  And maybe we as Investors could band together in an Association and hook up with the Associations for Contractors and approach law makers to get the rules changed?  It’s a thought.

Wondering About Future Employment After Missouri Or Illinois Bankruptcy? I’ve Got Good News

Wondering About Future Employment After Missouri Or Illinois Bankruptcy? I’ve Got Good News

Getting a job after bankruptcy is usually at the top of the list of concerns for anyone that first comes to my office. The truth is that filing Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Missouri or Illinois doesn’t prevent you from getting joband it does more positive things for your life than you probably expected.

Looking for a job in this economy is no easy task and you don’t need anything else to make it harder. So, what kind of effect can bankruptcy have on your job hunt? You probably already know that Missouri and Illinois Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy affects your credit. It is possible that a future employer may check your credit before hiring you, at which point they will see the bankruptcy.

A bankruptcy on your credit report may very well be better than a foreclosure or repossession. Why? If you’ve filed bankruptcy, you’ve proved that you can take responsiblity for those things that have gone wrong in your life. It is actually a responsible moveand most employers will understand that if you explain it to them, that is if they even bring it up. Hard times hit everyone and there is nothing wrong with making the responsible move for your family to get protection from foreclosure, credit card debt help, and relief from harassing creditors.

Now that you are feeling better about looking for a job after Missouri or Illinois bankruptcy, here are a few other bright points that I’ve noticed over my 15 years as a St. Louis, Missouri and Belleville, Illinois bankruptcy attorney.

You are more educated today about staying out of debt than you were yesterday. Nothing teaches us better than experienceand learning how to stay out of debt is a valuable lesson. Now, you know what it takes to save money and be debt free. You can start making the life you’ve always wanted for you and your family…today.

You’ve provided a good example for your kids. While you may think being in big amounts of debt is a failure, consider your Missouri or Illinois bankruptcy a success. Just as Shakira explained in a recent interview, bankruptcy can create the determination and drive in your children to become determined, successful adults. You’ve taught your children that they can take responsibility for their lives and have the power to turn it around.

Your post-bankruptcy life can be much easier when you armed with the tools to make it a success. Look for a St. Louis, Missouri or Belleville, Illinois bankruptcy attorney who can help you understand the role your bankruptcy plays in the success of your life afterward!

Missouri Casinos Inform Public with New Messages on Ticket-In Ticket-Out (TITO) Stubs

St. Louis, MO (PRWEB) July 26, 2006 -–

The Missouri casino industry has launched a campaign to provide positive messages about casinos and a toll-free helpline on the back of “ticket-in ticket-out” (TITO) stubs, the bar-coded tickets that have replaced metal tokens in most slot machines. Argosy Casino in Riverside is the first Missouri casino to offer the messages on TITO stubs, which casino visitors use to cash out, switch games and transfer credits to different machines.

“Most casino visitors end up with a TITO stub at the end of play, so we thought they would make wonderful mini-billboards to inform people,” said Bill Keena, president of the Missouri Gaming Association and regional vice president of Harrah’s Entertainment.

“Our own customers are our most enthusiastic advocates, but even they may not be aware of the many ways that casinos benefit Missouri through jobs, casino-paid taxes and fees, and community projects,” Keena said.

The TITO stubs are printed with the message “Missouri’s eleven casinos provide great jobs, fund education and support community projects through casino-paid taxes and fees” and include the Missouri Gaming Association website — www.missouricasinos.org. Headlines that will appear on the tickets on a rotating basis include:

11,100 Great Jobs

7 million to Missouri Schools in 2005

8 million for Veterans’ programs

If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call 1-888-BETSOFF for free help.

In addition to the taxes paid to the state, the casinos provide revenues to the communities where they are located. The cities that host Missouri’s casinos receive a tax of two percent of gaming revenue and a fee, also paid by the casinos, of one dollar per admission. In 2005, local communities received more than million in gaming taxes and admission fees, revenues that have funded numerous street, bridge, sewer, lighting and other infrastructure improvements. Casino revenues also have been the major source of funding for special projects ranging from a new city hall/police station complex in Maryland Heights to a city-owned broadband network providing high-speed Internet access to businesses and residents in North Kansas City.

The TITO stubs also offer the toll-free 1-888-BETSOFF helpline and a link to the website of the Missouri Gaming Association www.missouricasinos.org where consumers can learn more about the Missouri casino industry. Materials on the website include MGA annual reports, an economic impact study and Gaming Benefits Missouri’s Workforce, a report on employment in the Missouri casino industry.

The Missouri Gaming Association (MGA) is the statewide trade association of the Missouri casino entertainment industry and related professionals. Formed in 1993, the MRGA provides research and information to increase awareness of the economic benefits of Missouri’s casinos. For more information, visit www.missouricasinos.org.
