      Not only GA! that is happening in ALL County Records. However, lately some countries has filed and gotten the statutes changes to correct that.
      All the filer needs to do is deliver them a "properly filled out Deed" and they are obligated to file it - that's Public Record Law. Also, anything that is filed in the courthouse is Public Records meaning anyone can go to the courthouse and request to see any record in there.

    Notaries must carry insurance and can be sued and lose their license for fraudulent signing. As a notary, people will call me feeling me out if I would go along with a scheme. I tell them outright, you must have your State issued ID and you must be the owner of the property, or the owner of the property has to be present with ID, or I will not be working with them.

    Why don't they take it back the same way it was stolen in the first place? If nothing was done, they can steal it back, and they actually can't be charged for stealing their own rightfully owned homes.

    The honor system only works when people are honorable. People today , especially in this country, have less morals and no honor. I was raised that my word is bond and that I will give my life before my word shall fail. With a leader that is a lier and a thief how do you expect people to do other wise. It’s sad 😢. These babies growing up will never know a world where people were honorable and a hand shake is a binding contract . A world where you can leave your door unlocked and neighbors looked out for each other. 😢

    It is purely insane that no identification is required to claim you own a house. There is no way this can be legal. The judge that ruled in fa or if the criminal should be removed from the bench. He probably has a stake in the crime and getting paid off. Fascism and alive and active in the red states.

    There is a guy on UA-cam. I cannot remember his name. I saw one of his videos. He was a career criminal and I think he lived in California and he would call around two different notaries and different title companies and he would say all these really big words and make his sentences Very elegant and he just knew what to say until he could get someone to send them a copy of the title or the deed to the home once he got that he went down and filed on it with a fake ID and then he would turn around and sell the house out from under the people that were actually living in it who owned it And unfortunately, the people who lived in it and owned it had no clue what was going on so they’d end up losing their home some of them got them back, but once authorities finally caught onto what he was doing and ended up in prison. I think it was like 30 years, but yeah, this is not Justin Georgia. This is practically everywhere. Here in Texas you have to show your ID for everything as far as I know. It’s almost like the government in the Democratic states just want everybody to stay poor and lose out on everything. They just don’t seem to care about anybody anymore.

    Under state law, Notaries Public are subject to massive fines and jail time for failing to accurately identify signers. It would be great to get a follow up on whether or not they are ever held accountable in these cases.

    Title insurance should cover this.

    • @ciaracummings4338
      @ciaracummings4338 Місяць тому +6

      No, it does not. Title insurance covers the wrongdoing that happened prior to you owning the home. So if you buy the home and it turns out prior to your purchase, there was some sketchy stuff that happened with the title, the insurance covers the subsequent investigation and/or legal action taken to resolve the matter. But if you buy a home and later down the line someone steals your title, title insurance has nothing to do with that.

    Not sure why the rightful owners don't play the same game then somehow go to court. I mean, go file a deed behind the criminal's deed. At least for the guy who's paying the people $2400/mth.

    The state whether they check ID or not is the party that is complicit in the fraud. Their job is to properly protect the Deeds and facilitate legal transfer of Deeds etc. They didn’t do that, they hold complicity in the fraud because of their negligence. Trying to pass the burden of this theft solely to the homeowner is some next level gaslighting.

    They need to check to see who is paying the property taxes when someone comes into the county clerk's office trying to claim any property as their own. They should also be made to provide proof of any mortgage payments that are or have been paid.
