MIDDLETOWN, CT (WFSB) - A Middletown mother thought she found a home for an irresistible price on a trusted real estate website, but she wound up losing $800 in a scam.Lisa Garcia, who is a mother of three, had been sifting through ads on the real estate website Trulia for weeks until she found the perfect listing.

I wound up getting a HELOC on it so I could move on to the next project.

I recently made an offer at ~46% of the original asking price, and wound up buying it for ~63% with some extra land thrown in - after the owner countered my first offer by raising his asking price.And find off-market deals - the MLS is tough, especially right now.

Sorry to revisit an old wound, but the experience may help others avoid the same situation.

I wound up losing it all!
