DJ Envy Addresses Real Estate Scam Allegations | Tea-G-I-F

[@zuria07]

Celebrities and influencers need more accountability for what they promote in general…

[@nayakiabates8814]

OMG… u hit it right on the nail. What do these celebrities know about half of these companies they promote. They get a check to sell and market things to us period.

[@EnubeeStyle]

Yeah, might still be held liable.

[@silentmajority8365]

Stop being so accepting

[@Kay-RT2020]

Right. Using power, money, and status should not be the way celebrities and influencers get out duping people. They have access to more business knowledge than the avg middle class person and are more aware of the ins/outs of big businesses. Envy is a LIAR. Even if he didn’t invest into rental prop w/ his partner he still endorsed the business.

[@Bugger22]

This is a prime example why we consumers should NOT jump to patronize companies and products based on “personalities” that we recognize. They are being based off of the consumer being gullible and/or naive.

[@fit2bjustme]

If DJ Envy was in partnership, a business partnership with this man/friend as opposed to being a paid spokesman, he is just as much responsible or "on the hook" for any litigation against said company. Regardless to what DJ Envy claims, what matters is can the plaintiff prove he's an owner in the business. Which would be laid out in the articles of incorporation. So this will come down to is he an owner or merely a spokesman

Ugh! This makes Realtors, like myself, cringe! Aspiring investors, at the least… Contact a real estate attorney (to confirm contract is legal and desirable), title company (to confirm property is cleared to transfer), home inspection (is the property health and hazard free), appraisal (is the property worth the money). You never give cash! When you cut corners, this is what you get. Folks that are willing to do the same. FSBO (property sold by owners) will likely be these “flipper” gems and therefore, you could be on your own to figure out how to proceed. A Realtor would help navigate this. But if you want to go at it alone..start with a real estate attorney in your local area.
