🚨 SUBJECT TO IS OVER? The Real Estate Scandal Nobody Is Talking About
A Florida company called BG Ventures Investment Real Estate quietly acquired over 120 properties using "Subject-To" deals — promising sellers relief from foreclosure, promising private lenders 15-20% returns — and then made ZERO payments. Not one. On any of them.
The result? 32+ foreclosure lawsuits. Sellers with destroyed credit. A retired military veteran still paying a mortgage on a home he no longer owns. Private lenders watching their retirement savings vanish. And an entire real estate strategy now under a national microscope.
In this episode, we break down the full BG Ventures collapse, what it means for creative finance, and answer the question everyone in this industry is afraid to answer: Is Subject-To actually over?
