I would ask her to call the cops next time she sees one, so they can arrest and prosecute the ghost for trespassing. 

Bank fraud is the easiest to prove, show and prosecute, no loss needs to be suffered by a bank, only the fact that they were given false information in a loan application needs to be shown.

the closing attorney I use there is very responsive I don't know if he prosecutes foreclosure's or not.. but ping me off line if you want a referral.Its a mortgage judicial state as you probably know.. at least the stuff I have seen.best of luck  I will be there next week as well..

Unfortunately, the whole situation did not go without some effects not only on our wallets: my business partner had a miscarriage during that stressful time, and I need her to help me prosecute the case.

if you know who they are  I would try to catch it on video and not intervene so you can prosecute.

I would NOT want to be the guy that owned “The Whorehouse” even if I was able to escape prosecution.

The other thing people often overlook with the exemptions....that if the exemption is applicable they exempt you from criminal prosecution and civil liability from the government.

Did you realize you can be criminally prosecuted by the attorney general's office at that point?

Not sure what happened with this case - hopefully he's prosecuted and convicted. https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/49/topics/1168199-fraud...  

And the person needs to be turned in and prosecuted  LOLI am all for profit's  its how we do business.. but taking advantage of the elderly simply is not one that I subscribe too.. a 240k property that only needs 20 k in work.. is certainly NOT only worth 90k..most folks would be tickled pink to pay 150k a 240k prop that only needs 20k... had this seller simply gone to a reputable realtor and the property was exposed to the open market fair market value would have been achieved for all.Now I get Hoarder houses and super low value deals... etc etc.. especially with how intense the asbestos laws and lead paint laws have gotten.. the old days of just a wink and nob get rid of it is over.so on the face of it. some of these homes will need to go for VERY low dollars to make them viable.
