In this episode, I’m joined by George McCleary, CEO of Defender Networks, for an eye-opening conversation about squatting, title fraud, and protecting property owners from financial ruin. George, who went viral with his video I Stole a House, shares how squatters exploit legal loopholes, how title fraud is on the rise, and what landlords can do to safeguard their investments. We dive into the vulnerabilities of real estate transactions and discuss innovative solutions to combat these threats.
We talk about:
• How squatters manipulate the legal system to take over properties
• The financial toll of squatting cases, costing property owners $50,000 to $100,000 per incident
• The shocking ease of committing title fraud and how criminals steal home equity
• Why traditional title insurance doesn’t cover fraud and impersonation
• How Defender Networks’ Squatter Defender and Title Fraud Defender are changing the game
• The slow progress of anti-squatting legislation and how some states, like Florida, are taking action
