And It’s Over!

Well, it’s over for me now, thank God!

Last I heard, the cops were looking for Mike Cade, who seems to be on the run as no one can find him. I like to picture him hiding in a cardboard box under an overpass getting abused by the homeless druggies.

I heard from the police that someone beat the s**t out of Mike several months ago (thank you to whomever you are!) and was apparently scared enough about it that he wouldn’t tell the police who did it.

We ended up suing Mike Cade and Prime Realtors in March of 2010. Mike’s lawyer had contacted us just before the default judgement became official asking us to withdraw it and that he would sign an Agreed Judgement. Our attorney Jeff Morrison (morrisonpllc.com) tried to contact them but never got a reply. Our default judgement became official.

We then had start the process of filing a claim with the Texas Real Estate Commission (Trec). They have a Recovery Fund set up to reimburse people who lost money from licensed real estate brokers and agents.

First we had to fill out a bunch of paperwork, send in documentation and prooff of our losses and any supporting documents we could. We then had to wait until the next Trec commissioner’s meeting which was two months away (They only meet once every three months to review claims against the fund). We weren’t able to have the case decided at the November 2010 Commissioner’s meeting as they wanted more documentation from us. The next meeting was in February 2011, where the Commission reviewed our claim and decided in our favor.

We had to fill out a lot more paperwork and notarize forms and spent a good amount on Fedex getting original documents back and forth, but after about a month, we received payment on our judgement.

Again, our attorney is Jeff Morrison. He did an outstanding job, very fair fees and is a no B.S. kind of guy. It’s let’s get the job done and move on. The last thing we wanted was to deal with any more drama.

Jeff managed to navigate us through the confusing maze known as the Texas Real Estate Commission successfully, which based on our research online, is no easy task.

Now that we’ve started to recover and we’ve managed to get Mike Cade’s Brokers License revoked, the only thing left that I’d like to see is for Mike to do some jail time. It seems that could be accomplished soon as I’m told the police are looking for him and he’s on the run.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, this is a GREAT thousand words:
