Your mortgage broker and realtor in a race to sell every scrap of PII they have about you to every scammer under the sun
Our info is so insecure that the public records associated with recording a deed are more than enough for the floodgates to open up.
You can literally pull up every bit of information you need on someone directly in a map on a county portal if they own a home.
Including all publicly filed documents like divorce, alimony, marriage, etc.
It’s nice that there’s some amount of public information, but it sucks that it’s basically just normal people because the rich don’t have to put PII on their filings and can use fake companies.
Some stuff might be publicly available because FOIA and “Sunshine Laws” (is that a term used outside of Florida?) are mostly about ruining all privacy.
You can google my name (Somewhat unique, at least in America) and see exactly where I used to live and my party affiliation because some boomer takes all the voter registration records and makes them public and google indexed.
Oh, this 100% happens. I’ve been getting texts and calls fopre-approval about 6 different area codes since applying for preapproval.
Once you complete the purchase you will start getting fake letters about you already being delinquent on your mortgage lol.
Good luck all the same though!
Also wtif, home ownership means landlords will make offers on your property and you can tell them to kick rocks and die? If I had a home I’d take a photo of it and send it to every development firm and landlord I could and ask for an offer just to reply with this. I’d take out a mortgage just to hassle landlords, fuck the house.
It’s not the landlords, it’s some poor schmuck they’re paying minimum wage to cold call all day. I guess you could try to move forward with the process to get to the people who are worth fucking with though.
“If someone wants to buy my house I would have to speak with them directly.”
pretty sure that i saw here earlier that like 1 in 4 homes bought in the us recently have been bought by investors. i hate it here. normies in my circle are starting to radicalize themselves about it.
“radicalize” probably means “we believe that this is wrong, but the only way to solve it is through voting harder”
I would have gone with “the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry,” but this is nice too
Ask them to pay a deposit to be considered. Ghost them immediately after they pay.
That still might be illegal in a more liberal state if you never intended to sell.
