Predatory Theft by Deception of a Disabled Boynton Beach Senior Citizen…read more We purchased our home in Boynton Beach through Joan Saqui of the Rucco Group in December 2018.  She said we needed a new roof or we may not clear inspection/have higher house insurance.  The house inspector never mentioned it but my husband was concerned. In March of 2020 - He called Joan and she sent her husband Steve Saqui to our home to pitch his roofing company (FHIA) (Florida Home Improvement Associates) to my husband Kevin - who was recovering from a cerebral hemorrhage stroke suffered in January 2020.  Steve sold Kev the "best hurricane roof ever" with a 50 year warranty.  Even better - His company worked with a government funded loan through YGRENE/PACE in which the roof cost was absorbed right into our mortgage and we would barely feel it throughout the course of our mortgage term.  He also said that the loan would be transferable to a new buyer in the event of a sale. He made no credit check and I was not included in the contract even though my name is on the deed.  He had an electronic tablet with him and had Kev docu-sign.  My husband who is 65 and just suffered a stroke had no business signing anything. In February 2021 - we were stunned to find our mortgage payment suddenly jump from 2600/month to 3775/month.  I asked Joan Saqui and she told me - Oh - Everyone in Boynton Beach had their taxes doubled this year.  Not the case. I did more research and found that our Non Ad Velorem jumped from $394 to $6,499 from 2019 to 2020,  The roof cost was $44820 at $1600 a square for 3300 sq feet for a 2900 sq foot house.  Then an 8.74 intertest charge for twenty years making the interest alone $48,088. MAKING THE ROOF COST $92,908.000 !!! In further research online - I found several class action suits against YGRENE and the contractors peddling this criminal and deceptive loan.  The loan is in fact a lien on our house that takes precedence to the bank debt and must be paid in full before any sale of the property.  In fact Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will not even fund a loan involving any property attached to a PACE loan.  This is an outrage and we were completely duped. My husband just had a third stroke this February (the week after we discovered the truth about this loan) and was hospitalized for over three months.  He has a good pension but his pension dies with him - leaving me only his social security (when I turn 60) and life insurance policy.  This loan scam has us paralyzed - and when my husband passes I will be faced with no other choice but to be foreclosed upon since I have no means to downsize and pay off this ridiculous lien. We were deceived and lied to.  This type of loan is being outlawed in counties in CA and FL and the list of victims is growing to 62k. The stress of this travesty brought on my husband's massive cerebral stroke this past Feb 12th and led to being hospitalized for over three months - ventilator, feeding tube and brain damage. I had to spend over 10k to an elder care lawyer (Mark Shalloway) to attempt to move him from Medicare over to Medicaid in the expectation that he would never return home and be permanently hospitalized. By the grace of God - He recovered and is back home with us finally,  But I lost all my money and the stress of our precarious financial situation now still remains and is impairing his recovery. I have also written to the Florida Attorney General, Governor Ron DeSantis, Senator Marco Rubio, Boynton Beach Mayor Steven Grant, the Boynton Beach City Council, WPBF and The Palm Beach Post.

I contacted Tyler multiple times regarding rental properties and consistently encountered the same…read moreresponse--that the units were under contract or unavailable, even when listings appeared to indicate otherwise in the modern living group website. The most frustrating experience was having a scheduled showing canceled shortly before the appointment due to the unit allegedly going under contract. Despite there being other units in the building, no alternatives were presented. Overall, I did not feel that there was a meaningful effort to help me find a rental, which made the experience quite disappointing. As a review below I can relate to the experience of dismissiveness and lie about properties when it's a smaller commission. I hope this constructive criticism helps this agency because if you can't built honest trust with your clients they will not return when they are ready to splurge more on a rental, home, or any other property.
