Despenas LLC aka SDIRA Wealth aka Modern Day Living Real Estate LLC are all scam companies that inflate housing prices in the neighborhood only to sell eviction-prone extremely damaged homes with no intent to perform the agreed-upon inspection repairs and send you through multiple corporate hoops after purchase only to completely ignore you immediately after the sale.
