Beware of Joe England! Podcast speaker #206

I had a bad experience lending money to Mr. Joseph England. I want to share my experience in the hope of helping others who are thinking of investing with him. I always see his posts on the forums, listened on his podcast and was impressed by his posts in 2017. Then I saw his ad on the BP Marketplace for a Baltimore property that he was wholesaling. I thought this looked like a good deal so I contacted him and eventually bought that house from him. I offered to lend him my $50000 from a SDIRA at an interest rate of 7% for 2 years. I thought that will be a win win situation for us. He'll be able to use the money while at the same time guide me through my first BRRRR. Two years came and he did not return that money nor the interest. I filed a lawsuit against him two months ago and got served the subpoena but he has not responded yet. This post is not written to get sarcastic remarks but to warn people to avoid Mr. England like a plague.

I don't know whether there is any possibility of a counter suit since I am not an attorney but I believe that bad operators need to be called out and we should make the community aware of people/entity's that aren't what they claim to be.

Vina Real is not the only person having problems with Joseph England keeping his word so I am pretty confident that she is telling the truth.
