Writer's picture: matthewevans76matthewevans76

Real estate related fraud has been on the rise for the past decade. Common scams include:


  • Foreclosure scams

  • Loan flipping

  • Bait & switch scam

  • Airbnb scams

  • Rental scams

  • Mortgage fraud

  • Wire fraud

  • Title fraud

  • Escrow wire fraud

  • Fake listings


This list seems to get longer every day. You hear about these tragic cases on the news. But what can you do to protect yourself?


Back in October of 2022, Fulton County's Clerk of Superior & Magistrate court launched an online property notification too called "R. E. A. A. C. T." or Real Estate Activity Alert & Contract Tool. The free service will alert you whenever there is any activity related to your property. Here's a link to the announcement:



Here's a short video explaining how this free service works:



Finally, here's a link to the tool itself.



You can never be too cautious when it comes to protecting your home, land or real estate investment. I urge each of my clients to take a moment and sign up for this valuable service.
