The show will air Saturday, August 3rd at 3pm PT on KTLK AM1150. Listeners not in the Los Angeles area may stream the show from KTLK's site http://ktlkam1150.com. Sam will discuss how Sam's Real Estate Club helps people network and learn about real estate, his experiences in countless real estate transactions from various positions, fixing and flipping properties and the effect of the current market on investment properties. Sam will also talk about his role as CEO of the Global Financial Network and what they do.

Over the last 25 years, Sam Sadat has been involved in more than two thousand real estate transactions as a principal, partner, lender or broker. He started his career as a loan officer and soon became a top producer at his bank. Sam left there to become president of Global Home Loans, a mortgage banking company that under his leadership, grew to have more than one hundred million dollars in annual loan originations. Sam is now the CEO of Global Financial Network, LLC. GFN has worldwide real estate interests, one of them being Investor Funding Resources, which provides private money mortgages and bridge financing to investors in the fix and flip property business.

In 2003 he founded Sam's Real Estate Club of Los Angeles (also known as Los Angeles Real Estate Investors Club). Through the club Sam has helped thousands of people to network, learn and prosper by understanding the fundamentals of wise investing. He believes anyone can succeed in real estate -- but with proper guidance and mentoring it will happen faster with fewer expensive mistakes. One important highlight of Sam's RE Club meetings is that each week Sam talks about what's happening now in real estate. Unique among real estate clubs, Sam always provides insights on personal growth, creating a positive mind set, and maintaining your motivation. Sam's RE Club has been featured on KTLA Channel 5 News, LA Times, Daily News and many others as one of the best networking and educational venues in Southern California. The key to Sam's business success is that he knows that due to government regulation, the economy, demographics and many other factors, real estate is a constantly changing environment. What worked a few years ago might be obsolete today.

Over the years Sam's true passion has become to use his depth of knowledge to educate old and new investors alike on latest trends as well as the tried and true. He has come to believe that only through the process of continuing education will an investor gain the necessary knowledge to navigate through these changing currents. Sam first took action on this idea by hosting his own radio show, The Free and Clear Hour, on KHOW in Denver, lecturing around the country and making guest appearances on TV and radio programs. He currently teaches real estate at the Learning Annex Online and The American Premier University. Sam has written many articles for well-known real estate publications.

United Real Estate Partners with Kaplan to Offer Premier Discounted Licensing Program

    KANSAS CITY, MO, August 09, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- United Real Estate, a fast-growing urban-centric real estate and franchise operation company, today announced its partnership with Kaplan Professional Schools, to offer potential United agents a discounted (15%) cost for signing up for the real estate licensing program. Kaplan Professional Schools, United's Education Partner of Choice, owns and operates one of the largest groups of real estate schools in the U.S. and is bringing their premier licensing, exam preparation and continuing education programs to potential United Real Estate agents.

From pre-licensing to exam prep courses, Kaplan helps students easily and quickly acquire sales and/or broker licenses, as well as continuing education courses that ensure students are up-to-date on needed qualifications. Kaplan's new On Demand Real Estate Licensing and Exam Prep courses combine the benefits of expert instruction with the convenience of studying anytime, anywhere. In addition, the courses allow potential United Real Estate agents, with the completed required education, obtain a license by simply registering for the licensing success package, applying for the exam/license application, and taking the exam. And since no two students' schedules are exactly alike, Kaplan offers three unique course delivery formats.

United's relationship with Kaplan could not have come at a more pivotal time for the real estate industry. Since the market's peak in 2006, memberships in the National Association of Realtors were on a steady decline as a result of a decrease in transaction volume, economic stagnation and significant housing down turn. With the continuing recovery of the real estate market across the United States, the National Association of REALTORS' has once again reached over 1,000,000 members, ending the five-year decline. As the real estate market continues to have increased transaction volume each month, the United/Kaplan partnership will be the ideal solution for potential agents.

"Historically any time there is growth and confidence in the residential real estate market, it is followed by an increase of new real estate agents joining the profession. We view our relationship with Kaplan and forming the United Real Estate licensing school combined with the United success program as a key strategic direction that will give our United company owned and franchised offices a large advantage in recruiting the next generation of real estate agents." Peter Giese President United Real Estate"

To sign up for this program visit http://www.KapRe.com or call 1-800-314- 5262 for more information.

Bankruptcy estate of meningitis-linked pharmacy to battle states

By Tim McLaughlin

BOSTON, April 12 | Fri Apr 12, 2013 6:12pm EDT

BOSTON, April 12 (Reuters) - The bankruptcy estate of the pharmacy linked to a deadly U.S. meningitis outbreak plans to battle nearly 30 states to preserve its right to redeem several million dollars worth of insurance policies for creditors.

The insurance policies are key assets in New England Compounding Center's bankruptcy estate.

Paul Moore, the trustee for NECC's bankruptcy estate, requested court approval to hire Collora LLP, a Boston law firm known for its high-profile defense work, according to documents filed on Friday. Collora would battle pharmacy board regulators from at least 28 states and contend with an ongoing, previously disclosed investigation by the U.S. Justice Department, according to the trustee.

Creditors in the bankruptcy include the victims of the outbreak, court records show. Their claims, however, are much larger than NECC's assets, which have been listed at between $1 million and $10 million.

In January, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Henry Boroff temporarily restricted NECC's owners from selling their luxury homes or spending up to $21 million they received last year in salary and shareholder distributions. The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, which represents meningitis victims, has said it would like to claw back that money for the bankruptcy estate.

Lawyers for NECC's owners have said there is no evidence that any of them directly participated in the events that led to the deadly U.S. meningitis outbreak. They have been named in a number of civil lawsuits.

NECC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in December. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration shut down its operations after the compounding pharmacy shipped thousands of vials of steroids tainted with fungal meningitis. The ensuing outbreak that killed 53 people and sickened 733 others is attributable to injectable steroids distributed by NECC, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Moore said he initially thought NECC creditors would be best served if he allowed the pharmacy's operating licenses to be forfeited in various states. But he said he quickly learned there could be "adverse collateral consequences," namely the ability to redeem various insurance policies and claims for the benefit of creditors, if he let that happen.

As of early March, there have been actions in at least 28 states to compel a suspension, revocation or forfeiture of NECC's license, the trustee said in his court request.

In addition, the trustee learned that one unnamed state may seek to impose a penalty of more than $2.5 million.

Collora law partner Paul Cirel has been interacting with the U.S. Justice Department, which is investigating the Framingham, Massachusetts-based pharmacy, the trustee said. Cirel has represented NECC since 2003 on regulatory matters. He also has represented Barry Cadden, NECC's chief pharmacist. (Reporting By Tim McLaughlin; Editing by Bernard Orr)
