Red Flags & Real Estate Scams (Dean Rogers)

REIClub | Real Estate Investing Podcast

Scammers are just a part of life, but Dean Rogers learned how to do 'deeper' due diligence after he got burned by a known criminal. Dean lost $180,000 but sees how he could have avoided it by trusting his gut and making a few more phone calls to other people involved in the deal.

Con-men (and Con-women) know that most people want to trust other people, and they abuse that trust to scam people. To avoid scams in real estate (or anywhere) just remember this quote:

"Trust, but verify." - Ronald Reagan
