Like how are you an ADULT that would BELIEVE and then agree to "free money" that involves your home, where you sleep, YOUR shelter from the elements??? Like how?
But not every person who calls you will be a scammer. For example, when I have to buy a home, I have to cold call the home owner because there's no other way besides mail, and sometimes you don't have that time to wait.
Back in 1979 here in MD my wife and I bought an existing home and nothing was reported to us in the title search prior to settlement. Two years later we had to sell the home and a lien against the title was reported to us that was from the previous owners and never paid. We ended up having to pay their lien in order to sell the house. It wasn't that much but we were still upset that it should have shown up and been paid before we settled on the purchase.

It should be a criminal offense to engage in deceptive practices like this. These scams won’t stop as long as they can can just file for bankruptcy, weasel out of their liabilities, and start another company to prey on consumers again. If they have to spend some time in prison and have a felony conviction on their records, that will be much more of a deterrent.

I'm sorry, no disrespect to the homeowners, but if some random company called offering chump change for my signature on exclusive rights on ANYTHING regarding my home, it would immediately ring as a swindle. Nothing is free when salesmen call. I hope their issues are resolved, and they develop a keen radar for scams like this moving forward.
And why would anyone give exclusive listing rights to their home without vetting the company? Even if it were a genuine offer, the least we should do is make sure they are a legitimate company and verify they’re good at what they do and verify what the terms and conditions of the offer are. I think I can safely say most of us would like to pick our own realtors when it comes time to selling our homes.
They put retail store thieves in prison for stealing way less. This sort of theft should be punished under the RICO act. Racketeering is punishable by $25,000 per offense, and up to 20 years in prison.
exactly. he's absolutely right. the "HOA" crime syndicate is 100% racketeering. It needs put a stop to. All the "HOA" racketeers need investigated and charged and put in jail if found guilty. More importantly, state legislatures need to outlaw "HOA" on detached homes. The "HOAs" are going against the constitution by acting as de facto governments. They're absolutely NOT authorized to do what they're doing, not one bit.

@JohnnytNatural ever been to one of those timeshares pitch? They are good. They make it seem you’re stupid for not agreeing to this fabulous price and deal. We’re practically giving you free vacations. You just have to pay this little fees.

He really thought this company would just hand him $1200 for absolutely nothing in return? We have to be smarter than this. No one wants to give you free money.
They probably told them when they sold would deduct it off their commision. That's the only way I can see anyone maybe doing it but still a scam. Like you said nothing is free even if a temp loan still costs something.
There's no such thing as "free money". People that get scammed are usually the ones looking to "take advantage". Stop looking for free stuff and READ THE CONTRACT.
I'd love for the reporters in these cases to get a hold of the documents and see what in these agreements gives the realtor (in their eyes) the right to place a lien on someone's house just for agreeing to list the house if they decide to sell it.
When people learn that no one ever really helps..ever…everyone especially companies always comes to you with an agenda..companies are in the business of making money when they approach you..they want your money…if I wasn’t looking to buy what you’re selling then I don’t need it.
Take some responsibility people. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. Read the contract. Have your lawyer, if you have one, read your contract. It’s a scammers world out there and you have to be smarter than them.
While it's important for individuals to exercise caution and read contracts thoroughly, it's also crucial for professionals, such as realtors, to uphold ethical standards and provide transparent information to their clients. In this case, the realtor failed to disclose the provision about placing a lien on the house, which is a fundamental breach of trust. Homeowners should indeed be diligent, but they should also reasonably expect honesty and transparency from professionals in the industry. It's not solely the homeowners responsibility to navigate potential pitfalls; ethical business practices are equally vital to ensure a fair and trustworthy marketplace.
Who are the owners of MV Realty? They should be bright to court and all liens taken off from homeowners. The bankruptcy protection must be denied and liens on the principals must be applied. These scam artists need to pay for their acts.
Don't trust anybody who claims they are going to give you money but wants nothing in exchange, or makes a vague claim about something that might happen in the future. That's always going to be a scam.
If someone is offering you "free money", just say no. If it sounds too good to be true, just say no. Scammers are everywhere. You can't trust anyone unfortunately. I hope that company loses big in the courts. Bunch of crooks!
It's just like here in Florida. An investigation is turning out to lawyers investing on schemes for home owners to sign rights over to them to start a litigation with insurance company dating back to 2020. They are seeing that most companies that left or were shut down were due to mostly litigation that they could not sustain staying in business.
The man said himself "Free money" That should have been a flashing red light bulb in his head. If it's too good to be true it probably is and "free money" definitely is.
In the end, scammers rely on the greed of their victims. Had the homeowners not been trying to get money for free, something they know never happens, they would not find themselves in this predicament.
These people signing off their homes for chump change don't have enough sense to get anyone to review their new contract obligation. It's going to cost them thousands to get from under this.
This was NOT free money. MV Realty said they would be the real estate agent whenever the person wanted to sell. Period. For that, they gave the homeowner money to say that when they opt to sell, they would be the one to make the commission on the home and no one else. It was NOT free by any means. Had someone sold during the time the market was extra hot, MV Realty stood to make THOUSANDS off of the little check they gave the homeowner.
One thing my fathers taught me is that nothing, nothing is free Ian America not even the air you breathe! Someone is always watching and waiting to take and never to give. Not even church is free just look at the sizes, even Jesus comes at a price. Lesson learned my friend, Family first! ALWAYS!!!

actually, people are also walking into property dept with "quit claim" deeds and transferring property to themselves, with no owner involvement. Anytime something happens with your property there should be a notice sent to the owner of record.

If you're not on my contact list your email goes to spam and your text/phone number is blocked .
Sorry! If you are not familiar with legal documents STOP and pay someone $50 to review it on your behalf. This is laziness on the part of the owners by not reviewing a contract before signing it. We have a culture of victimhood instead of turning off the TV, shopping less, and READ. I guarantee there is no fraud committed as the language/terms is in the contract.
But the "this" you refer is NOT generalizable and doesn't necissarily have anything to do with this story. People do stupidly sign contracts without reading but there is also a lot of scams and fraud out there, including in real estate. If you think or claim otherwise you are dead wrong!
the people from that company should lose all their assets n spend the rest of their lives in jail for fraud - nothing to do with contract reading even if it was written in giant bold read letters

@@RocLobo358 what debt they got them into a predatory deal when they signed that contract. The deal stipulates they were to get an upfront payment as long as they agreed to sell their property with the real estate agency. But the agency did a bait and switch by putting an unnecessary lein on their property.
I'm confused. What are these liens based on exactly? What is it that's in the contract that allegedly gives them the right to put a lien on the house? Was that covered here? I missed it.
No such thing as free money. In my non legal opinion, just let them list your house, you pick the price and the conditions, when they can't sell it within the time of the listing contract then pull it off the market. Contract fulfilled.
His thinking “hey, it’s free money” was the first problem. Be accountable for your own safety people. You have no control over what others do. People who think anything is “free” are perfect victims.
This guy was going to borrow against his house for Christmas gifts???? No wonder he fell for this scam. I forsee this property on the foreclosure list in a year or two.

Q@migm1520 why are you calling the homeowners and not the realtor?
Every city and state should be required to send multiple notifications to homeowner when anything is recorded against the title/property.
Here in LA and OC you do.
I thought it was a California law.
That would require competent bureaucrats
It's required in every state for any lien put on your home to notify the home owner. It has to go through the court system to put a lien on a house.
Back in 1979 here in MD my wife and I bought an existing home and nothing was reported to us in the title search prior to settlement. Two years later we had to sell the home and a lien against the title was reported to us that was from the previous owners and never paid.

And this woman files for bankruptcy.... that's what chiselers do, they scam the system.....i have lost count of how many bankruptcies trump has filed, and how many small business owners he has cheated ☹️😡. If you're not on my contact list your email goes to spam and your text/phone number is blocked .
Never underestimate the power of wishful thinking
Never buy a home until ur lawyer does a complete title/deed search
Period
Never, ever, ever trust anyone who cold calls you. Period.
So he thought that he was being given money for free? And that didn’t seem strange to him? Sheesh….
😂😂😂 “Free money!!! Nothing sus here!!” 😂😂😂
Sorry! If you are not familiar with legal documents STOP and pay someone $50 to review it on your behalf. This is laziness on the part of the owners by not reviewing a contract before signing it. We have a culture of victimhood instead of turning off the TV, shopping less, and READ. I guarantee there is no fraud committed as the language/terms is in the contract.
A jew playing victim while declaring war?
Sound familiar?
But the "this" you refer is NOT generalizable and doesn't necissarily have anything to do with this story. People do stupidly sign contracts without reading but there is also a lot of scams and fraud out there, including in real estate. If you think or claim otherwise you are dead wrong!
the people from that company should lose all their assets n spend the rest of their lives in jail for fraud - nothing to do with contract reading even if it was written in giant bold read letters
This scam contract is drawn up by devious lawyers. Many people don't understand the legalese in many of these documents and are seduced by "free money".
@@jKLa Those minorities clearly got Shylocked by that woman!
These crooks are doing their best to figure out anyway possible how to get your money 😒 💸
Do not take any offer. Get a class action lawsuit.
The best advice on here!
@@7u655 Not if they are filing bankruptcy. The lawyers get paid first in the case, while you get a five dollar check. All this while no admission of guilt.
You're not likely to collect a penny from these tricksters even with a judgment.
I either ignore these calls or if I feel like it, I pretend to be interested then back out last minute just to waste their time.
MV reality is going to do this to the right person and somebody is going to get caught taking out their trash.
NO SUCH thing as FREE Money from companies..SHUT THEM DOWN Ban them from operating even under a differnt name or holding! Take away every reators licensing in the firm and black list them from working in this employment venue.
I’m sorry, were these ppl born yesterday? No one gives you free money 😂 I should have empathy, but it’s hard
If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Buyer Beware.
When is too good to be true. It is not good. Remember: Nothing is free!
Greed will get you every time. No such thing as free money! If Miguel wasn't going to sell the home, he should not have taken the $1200. Period!
You don’t say if you sell in 40 years and then put a lien on someone’s home for 10 times the free money
You don’t say if you sell in 40 years and then put a lien on someone’s home for 10 times the free money
Don't sign anything unless you read it first and have a lawyer look at it.
You shouldve known better sir. There is no such thing as free money. Do your due diliginance folks.
He wants to give them the money back to be let out of the lien and what would be their incentive?
Fun fact: free money is NEVER free. Just always say no.
Snakes in shoes..apparently high heeled shoes
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I would have never signed or even entertained giving exclusive rights to sell my home
Stupid people did that to themselves through greed “if its too good to be true, it probably is” Nothing is free, their is always a catch. When will people learn
Proof positive there is no such thing as "free money"....but there are plenty of crooks.
As a real estate agent. Always have your lawyer review paperwork before signing anything
When we re -financed our mortgage years ago...we got robbed so blind we couldn't see daylight... Our lawyer never told us the truth about anything... In fact he mislead us... I've learned... Do my own research...
Painful lesson-There is NO such thing as free money EVER. Somebody-like you is paying it.
W. C. Fields once said “You can’t cheat an Honest Man.”… An Honest Man knows… You don’t get something for nothing!
Declared bankruptcy before any lawsuits settled? They knew they were scamming people.
Jesus!!! People STILL falling for phone calls out of nowhere offering free cash on their homes!!! I mean how gullible and stupid do you have to be???
Sure blame the victims.
How about going after the POS scammers!?!?
@@k.m.9418 We were just talking about scammers last night. I receive on average three scam calls a day. A few remarkably believable. I hang up on all of them. Scammers are scum of the Earth, I agree. But come on man! Free cash for your house!!! Come on!!. I mean I would call my mother stupid if she fell for something like that. And I never ever talk back to my mother.
They should know..there is no such thing as " free"$
Since they’re giving him 30 days I’d get the heloc and then put the home in a trust. You can’t attach liens to trust. Problem solved
Is that true right now? Do trusts protect accts and property or just from formal probate.
@@myobmyob2215 it protects the property from liens and probate.
Probably cheaper to pay the debt. It's going to cost more to sue
@@myobmyob2215Yes, they do.
@@RocLobo358 what debt they got them into a predatory deal when they signed that contract. The deal stipulates they were to get an upfront payment as long as they agreed to sell their property with the real estate agency. But the agency did a bait and switch by putting an unnecessary lein on their property.
I'm confused. What are these liens based on exactly? What is it that's in the contract that allegedly gives them the right to put a lien on the house? Was that covered here? I missed it.
No such thing as free money. In my non legal opinion, just let them list your house, you pick the price and the conditions, when they can't sell it within the time of the listing contract then pull it off the market. Contract fulfilled.
Nothing in life is for free
His thinking “hey, it’s free money” was the first problem. Be accountable for your own safety people. You have no control over what others do. People who think anything is “free” are perfect victims.
If it sounds too good to be true then it is. NOTHING is FREE
I feel bad for these folks, but come on...no one gives out 'free money'. Duh.
I’m convinced that these people accepting the “free stuff” are the same people that click on some random links on Facebook and get their account hack.
This guy was going to borrow against his house for Christmas gifts???? No wonder he fell for this scam. I forsee this property on the foreclosure list in a year or two.
A good rule of thumb is never pay anyone any money that contacts you first, rather than you contacting them. Either by phone or in person. Or email.
That real estate woman is clever. There’s one born every minute.
Scammer is she
If it’s to good to be true, it usually is. You can’t get something for nothing.
