Star Scammed - Didn't Have Title Insurance (Big Mistake)
Detroit mayor Duggan says HGTV's Nicole Curtis was 'scammed' in house deal
DETROIT (AP) - The star of HGTV's "Rehab Addict Rescue" apparently was "scammed" when she bought a blighted Detroit home from someone who wasn't the owner, the mayor said.
The Detroit Land Bank Authority holds the title to the house. Nicole Curtis said she paid $17,000 for the property in 2017 and has spent $60,000 in repairs and other costs so far.

You would have thought an experienced investor wouldn't make such a bad rookie mistake.
Be careful out there, get title insurance.
