I forget the quote, and I only think it was Jefferson, but someone said something like, 'Our form of government can only work with an honest people' .. or words to that affect.
Two recent news articles illustrate how immoral America (may ) be.
A guy found $10,000 in a store and returned it and two people who taught abstinence didn't even kiss untill they married.
Both events had every 5' 3" tight skirted info babe creaming how odd and wonderful these people are.
Wait until the deed is challenged in court.
This is truly a stupid article. You think those bureaucrats in the county registrar’s office are slow now. Just wait till they start verifying deeds, however, they are supposed to do that. Right now in some NY counties deeds are taking 9 months to register. The property owners are responsible for seeing to it that their property is not falsely conveyed. This will usually take place when the property is sold or encumbered by a mortgage. At that time a title search takes place, and the fraud described by the Daily News will easily be detected. All buyers and sellers at a closing are now required to produce photo id, driver’s licenses, before title is transferred. Frauds do take place when property owners are deceased and there is no estate or the estate is embroiled in litigation. Howeer, these cases are relatively rare. Thank you Daily News for providing another bogus headline grabbing story.
Yeah, it’s just that simple to “steal” real estate.
As if there isn’t one shady real estate lawyer who never thought of this and is now awash in ill-gotten properties that no one can do anything about.
