Your donations help with the recovery $350,000 in losses -- the cost of negative expeirences that led to the exposure of multiple multi-decade industry wide frauds affecting 40 million californians with no property legal lobby protections.
What you are going to read about in coming months and years on this website and others is the result of concerns that first arose via three storylines.
The first was a story conveyed in 2015 by a local Chiropractor to a client about pure evil being done by the Zoning and Permitting office that made no sense.
The second is from an experience in 2018 when two women came by a rental property and asked if the tenants wanted free bottled drinking water for a year or more for no logical reason.
The third transpired in 2021 when home buyers were handed a real estate contract for purposes of making an offer on a home. The contract was provided by Coldwell Bankers most senior Agent-Trainer in the state and it suggested they were to make and ratify an offer BEFORE being told what the seller had disclosed about property facts and conditions to the selling Broker week(s) prior. That was the first of dozens of frauds that culminated in court cases in Pro Se because oddly no attorney could support them due to the convoluted contracts and - as it turned - rogue judges.
What was three separate stories did end up having a lot of overlap -- but not until 100's of fraudulent acts transpired by dozens of people who had no idea others were doing the same.
This story cost the investigators over $350,000 in losses to frauds that should have never transired. This story came at a huge financial and emotional cost. If you can afford a monthly donation it is appreciated. Do it for a year and then decide if it's worth doing again. One time donations are fantastic too.
