I'll try to make this breif post as "un-boring" as I can, however this blog post is about a recent report I recently read about Client/Lawyer Foreclosure Fraud. Let start with the attorney's. Be sure, to hire an honest attorney if you need an attorney. The old saying what goes around, comes around is starting to hold all that more true in foreclosure fraud. Not to long ago, back in 2010, Palm Beach County real estate foreclosure fraud and Broward County real estate foreclosure fraud was running rampid and wild in the office of many attorney's. Why? Simple, because if there's no one to police the fraudulent action (i.e. lying about income, falsify critical documents, strategic default); until now. Recently the Florida Attorney General has…

Elin Nordegren, ex-wife of Tiger Woods recently purchased a beautiful 17,000 sq/ft mansion in North Palm Beach, Florida. The home is two stories, has 2 elevators, and all the finest ammenities. The problem was when her staff while caring for her home, realized the kitchen, baths, and bedrooms were infested with termites; so much so that the home needed to be torn down and built over again becasue it was simply beyond repair.
Elin paid 12.3 million for the mansion, which was infested with termites. Some really good news is that Elin donated the appliances, brick pavers, statues, doors, vanities and other ammenities to Habit for Humanity in Martin County prior to the demolition of the home.

$443,000 mistake leaves Villa Lago Condo's in Boynton Beach fuming

Villa Lago condo association in Boynton Beach received a warm, or not so warm $443,000 outstanding water bill from the City of Boynton Beach. Yep that's right, upon further review, the City of Boynton Beach, whom is at fault for their own billing and clerical errors, now wants Vill Lago to catch up on $443,000 worth of water bills, from the previous 4 years those clerical errors were made. Even worse, legally speaking from what the law currently reads, is that Villa Lago is actually on the hook for it, since Florida law provides that utility company's have 4 years to make claims on unpaid utilities.
In our own professional option, Villa Lago needs to get out of this mess as fast as possible. If I were on the board for Villa Lago I…

We all want a monster steal on a house. We get calls all the time from buyers requesting to see homes that were originally listed for $500,000, that are not selling for $300,000. The first question out of our mouth is, "how do you know the original list price was properly set from the beginning?" Case in point, many homes were once worth double of what they're worth currently. It's the current and future market value, and subject value that any particular home is worth to you. Buyer beware, a savvy listing agent could simply set an outrageous listing pricing, drop it a few days later, and then bang; hook, line, and sinker! Forget about previous values, look at current and be smart enough to forecast future values! If you need help,…
