Just closed on your new home? Congrats! But keep your guard up—because the scammers are about to strike.
In this quick but important episode, I break down a common real estate scam targeting new homeowners:
📬 You’ll likely receive an official-looking letter in the mail telling you to "purchase a copy of your Deed of Trust"—for $80 or more.
🚫 Here's the truth:
You already received a copy of your Deed of Trust at closing. You don’t need to pay for another one!
I’ll explain:
🔍 What the scam letters look like
✅ Why your title company already handled this

🛡️ How to protect yourself from future post-closing scams
This is one of those shady tricks that preys on proud new homeowners. Don’t fall for it—and don’t let your friends or family fall for it either!
