Does anyone know what the current status of National Real Estate is? Are they currently doing business? Are they paying their bills? Are they bankrupt, or headed for bankrupcy? After 40 plus years in the business I have seen this pattern many times. A company becomes a slow payer, but continues to order your services. Then they get further behind, as you call them & try and get payments started. Soon the payments stop, as do the orders. Next they stop taking your phone calls, they close, & then the Bankruptcy notice comes. And you are left holding the bag. If anyone can shed any light on this subject I would greatly appreciate. In the meantime, until I am able to make contact with someone in authority with NRE there will be no more work done for them. James R. Badertscher, Search Services Trust, Inc.
