Home title theft — a crime where someone steals a homeowner's identity to take ownership of a property — leaves property owners, like Gordon, without many options for quick reconciliation.

It is a legal way to protect the identity of a property’s true owner by creating a unique legal relationship between a trustee and a beneficiary.

I thankfully bought a nearly-identical duplex one street over for $100K because I realized what was going on.

A couple of court cases I assisted in defending the Subject To buyer, Included :Accusations of Forgery, Bank Fraud, Wire Fraud, Financial Schemes, Identity Theft, Concealment, Equity Skimming, violation of the Consumer Protection Act and Money Laundering.

Where there is direct control and complete unification into a single merged activity there is little doubt as to liability.3) To avoid that I need to maintain separate identities such as with accounting records, bank accounts, arm's length transactions, etc.

Its alsmost identical to a normal transaction.

But the legit exchanges all ask for identity documentation now.

If they're leasing identical units to new tenants I think you have a very strong case they're screwing you.Again, the discount would motivate someone who want's your type of unit to take yours over alternatives.

Hello,The Situation:I bought my current home for $190k (tax assessed $250k, Zillow $265k, rent ~$1.5k-$2k) and my neighbor is selling their near identical home (slightly smaller and basement access only from outside) for $225k (initially listed at $250k).

@Troy StoehrSomething you can try with the other side is see if they will sell you a purchase rights or first right of refusal on their half.There is a wonderful lady who lives across the street from one of our student houses, in an identical house.
