Florida Land Scams aren’t ancient history... they are still very
much with us (and for sale!) today.
For this Tale From the Closing Table, I show you a historic land
scam in Polk County, Florida that is similar to many others found
in the Sunshine State.
The 1900s were a heyday of conmen, opportunists, and outright fraud
and deception when it comes to real estate in Florida. "Selling
swampland in Florida" isn’t just a myth, it’s something that
actually happened, by design, and continues to happen to this
day!
You will learn some of the key identifiers of these sorts of vacant
land lots, as well as typical outcomes and how best to dispose of
them.
