Who is Bob Stevens AKA Bob Prisco and what's his involvement in Cleveland?

[James Wise]

I'm sure a lot of you have seen BP member Bob Stevens all over the forums telling people all about his 15% net cap Cleveland rental properties and the importance of his team.

If you do a little digging you see that there is this other guy named Bob Prisco. Bob Prisco looks, acts, and talks exactly like BP member Bob Stevens so I assume they are one in the same. Bob Stevens/Prisco sells turnkey properties and has websites advertising a complete turnkey experience where they handle all rehab and property management for out of state and out of country investors.

So having said all of the above, I got really confused when Bob was giving some BP members the advice that they didn't need a property manager in Cleveland. All they needed was a "team" to handle everything for them?

Well who the hell is on this "team" if there isn't a property manager? 

What exactly does this "team" do if they don't manage your property?

Beyond the obvious questions of what this "team" does, I was very confused by Bob's comments as I was under the impression that Bob owned a Cleveland property management company called 5 Points Property Management.

And if all of the above wasn't confusing enough, I went to see who is currently the owner of 5 Points since Bob says he has no involvement despite the conflicting info above, and I find out that 5 Points has had their license suspended.

Now I am not making any outright accusations here, but the whole thing smells pretty fishy, and I think Bob Prisco / Stevens owes the BP community an explanation as to what's all going on here.

Upon further research it does appear the user @Bob Stevens is breaking the rules by using a different name, given that the email address listed with BiggerPockets profile is actually linked to the name Robert Prisco - we have strict rules about using your actual name in section II subsection A of our rules that can be found here https://www.biggerpockets.com/rules

Bob do you have any response to this post that you would like to share publicly? This is a serious accusation if you are misrepresenting yourself on the BiggerPockets forums as an alias, and if you are trying to get clients for your suspended business here from the forums.
