More Realtor Agents Guilty in HOA Takeover Scheme


About fourteen people which included two licensed real estate broker agents have been pleaded to be guilty in a Las Vegas HOA Scheme – fraudulently tried to take control of nearly a dozen of homeowner associations in Las Vegas, Nevada. The fourteen people were among the convictions to be made in the next few weeks of investigation the Nevada’s commission. There is now a total of 26 guilty pleas in the said case.

However, the sentence that is to be given to the defendants was pushed back later next year. This was because of the federal prosecutors telling that there will be more defendants in line to be investigate in the upcoming weeks as they present numerous evidence to grand jury and obtain indictments against these so-called additional defendants. 

The prosecutors of the case said that the whole fraud scheme started operating early in 2003 until February of 2009. The primary goal of the said scheme was to obtain and have control over HOA.
