“Working Class Warrior” Elizabeth Warren Bought Foreclosed Homes To Flip
And Make A Quick Profit

[Image: 1hp1k9.jpg]

Not Liz Warren, surely not....

Quote:Nearly two years after Veo Vessels died, her daughter, 70-year-old Mary Frances Hickman, decided to sell the home her mother had left to her. A sprawling brick house in Oklahoma City’s historic Highland Park neighborhood, it was built in 1924, just a year after Mary’s birth. Decades later, one of Vessels’ great-grandchildren fondly recalls the wood and tile floors, the fish pond, the butler’s quarters, and the multi-car garage where children played house.

Decades later, one of Vessels’ great-grandchildren fondly recalls the wood and tile floors, the fish pond, the butler’s quarters, and the multi-car garage where children played house.

“It was really, really nice,” says Hickman’s granddaughter, Andrea Martin. That’s part of the reason she’s so surprised her grandmother sold the home in 1993 for a mere $30,000. Despite a debilitating stroke, Martin says Hickman remained sharp, and she had always been business-savvy. As an Avon saleswoman, she had at times ranked among the top ten in the country. “So I don’t know why,” Martin says. “Maybe she just wanted out from underneath it, but to sell it for such a low number — I don’t know. Maybe she got bad advice, maybe she was just tired.”

The home’s new owner: Elizabeth Warren, today a Massachusetts senator who has built a political career on denouncing the sort of banking titans and financial sophisticates who make a buck off the little guy. Five months after purchasing Veo Vessels’ old home, Warren flipped the property, selling it for $115,000 more than she’d paid, according to Oklahoma County Property Assessor records.

She's native american. I'm surprised Warren didnt also convince the woman to take out a $10,000 loan at 65% interest.

Not really

From the linked article:

Quote:In her 2006 book All Your Worth, co-authored with her daughter, Amelia, Warren lists as a top myth the idea that “you can make big money buying houses and flipping them quickly.” She has made a career out of telling people how to behave in financially responsible ways, and out of creating laws that will make it illegal for them to do otherwise.

But Warren bought and sold at least five properties for profit at a different time in her life, before the cratering economy and a political career made her a star. Her life story has been the subject of much interest, and her 2014 memoir, A Fighting Chance, chronicled her rise from humble beginnings in small-town Oklahoma and her struggle to make ends meet. It didn’t much mention, though, the early 1990s, years when her children were teenagers and she was once again happily married. These are years when she wasn’t yet the multimillionaire she is today, and, she has said, she was voting Republican.

Well, good. So shes yet another hypocritical fraud looking to turn a buck and keep others from doing the same. She'll fit right in.

But, more importantly, now the clintoon "Foundation" 03-lmfao will know cheekbones simply has a price like any other streetwalker. With the billions cankles and bubba have accumulated, they can buy her off with just one more 1/2 hour speech for 500k and another LLC to launder it through.

Problem solved!

Fresh face, new ideas! Hopey-Changey!!! 04-cheers

When did she say that she was against making money? Is this illegal? Where is the story? You're grasping at straws.

The 2 bold parts are not mutually exclusive...

Turn your TV to a random channel at 1:00 AM and chances are you will find some huxter selling a get rich quick real estate scheme. There are people who think it's as simple as buying a house, sitting on it for a month, selling for a big profit, repeating it, and becoming a millionaire. I'm guessing if you read her book, that is the myth she is trying to dispel, and she is absolutely right.

If this is the best you can dig up on Elizabeth Warren, she is in pretty good shape. She made a smart investment in real estate, the nerve!

I'm thinking the same thing.

Flipping homes for personal gain is not illegal nor does it clash politically with Mrs. Warren.
