Fair Go visits tiny home builder who has failed to deliver

[@claudeschaumkell6514]

This person needs to be held accountable This is just another scam he needs to go to jail

[@paulsz6194]

Unfortunately, it’s an expensive cost to recover what hasn’t been delivered to you, and to recoup your money. If only it was easy to request an asset seizure. Take his land & have it sold off…

[@esscee2520]

The intro says tiny homes have created the problem. It isn't the tiny home, it is a dishonest businessman looking to make a quick buck.

[@Robert-hm1ob]

I am surprised the guy has both arms this kind of crook needs a reminder, knock on his door and start taking all his belongings

[@juanitarichards1074]

We see these scammers all the time and they gt no punishment. They should get 20 years hard time in prison. This might deter others from these dirty tricks and outright robbery.

[@otearoa]

Why do these people not have legal contracts? Govt needs to start a register of reputable tiny home modular builds, builders and a list of those who are not.

[@tigertiger1699]

You have to do you homework… this guy needs to be under court supervision

[@jennyarnold9350]

people like this man need to be striped of his home and bank accounts to pay for the homes of these venerable people. It happens far too much.

[@mattmcdonald7112]

Absolutely, you know he's hiding that money too, needs to be made to pay and if he can't in jail till he can (which ironically will be permanent). These guys get away with stealing money bank robbers only dream about.

[@oftin_wong]

It's normal to pay for things up front ...the problem is the dodgy builder

[@sunnysamuel-bi6iz]

It's a huge risk too,I don't pay no cunt for nothing no way no day no how,never ever.

[@miadodson1938]

I really feel for these customers - bloody shocking disgusting behaviour by the company

[@sunnysamuel-bi6iz]

I don't feel sorry for them they're way too gullible,never ever hand over money to someone for no work,dumb dumb dumb

[@tjmarx]

The common thread here of course is all of these people paid the full build amount upfront. If a builder doesn't have the cash or product on site to build your home with a deposit only with the rest due on delivery, that's a red flag they aren't a reputable business. These are likewise all tiny homes costing dramatically under the market rate. That's another red flag. Scammers shouldn't be scamming, it goes without saying. But they're crooks, so they aren't going to just stop. So people need to take some responsibility for themselves and realise they live in a world filled with people trying to take them for a ride. As these victims are unfortunately finding out the hard way you're responsible for making sure you don't get defrauded. So be vigilant. Don't use businesses advertising on Facebook market place or other such unmoderated classifieds. Check the history of a company you're going to spend any significant amount of money with before you agree to do business with them. Don't pay anymore than the minimum deposit up front. If you fail to do your due diligence, don't be surprised when it turns out you've been scammed.

[@patriciatehaate236]

You are so right we have to be responsible buyers

[@luckyM9963]

I went through a 300k reno 1 year ago and I had to pay $0.00 upfront. The reno was done in stages and i was paying at the end of each stage. This is how it should work. They other way is for the money to go to a trust. People need to do their due diligence.

[@miadodson1938]

I say let him trespass you and take you to court, you paid for it, it's yours

[@bluesstinger1975]

Challenge the arguement not the person wtf, this guy needs some hospital time

[@Ronny.81]

Terrible to see people so stressed and upset because of low life's basically robbing them of their money.

[@mindflowmotivations6575]

Not life robbing them of their money it’s a person

[@Unknown_Ooh]

Probably shouldn't give all the money you have to someone you've never met or even talked to anyone who's had work done by that contractor.

[@CheCosaTesoro]

People should visit Warren BAMN. Any delinquent director should be banned. If regulators allow them to restart a new company, then they are also to blame. Phoenixing behaviour needs to stop. They know that the court system, time and money protects them. And then the system seems shocked when victims seek justice by other means.

[@juanitarichards1074]

"Banned".

[@mattmcdonald7112]

Yeah, I'm tired of these guys getting a do over.

[@mattmcdonald7112]

These guys know how to pick em, I mean honestly, he's still walking so he's failed to cross the wrong people.

[@ianbryant628]

They could get together and employ (somebody) who knows how to get payment from him...........For a percentage.

[@deanwitt7903]

@@ianbryant628I am that man .

[@lidamansilla2883]

And where is that creep now? The slime should be working as a rubbish man and pay every cent to the people he did in. Mole. He will pay for his dishonesty sooner or later. Little comfort for the people he robbed. Where is the police?

[@onengkusumah2905]

rofl, do you think police can do anything about it?😂😂

[@kimhornhem5399]

give some respect to our rubbish men

[@campbell734]

stop turning the comments off man! I wanna see what people have to say on other videos

[@juanitarichards1074]

It's not the creators, its YT who turn the comments off.

[@Sgten01]

We need some sort of trust account type system to hang on to these deposits and give progress payments to the builder. I want to start out as a tiny home builder but how can people trust they aren't going to lose money with me when I haven't got any reviews or history? This clown ruins it for many.

[@oliverf944]

Send a hardened vigilante to his property

Losing over 100k and heading back into the current rental/property market...join the que of NZ families outside Bunnings! 5 meter rope's are on special!

Put him in jail!

[@joedennehy386]

Why doesn't the law protect people

[@milleniumfalcon8654]

Oh man sad one that guy should be arrested heres what I did bought a 3x3m shed from mitre 10 aquired some free timber 2 aluminum Windows, basically built a sled,(movable) with a gable roof shed with camp/oven stove,(heating/cooking),did all the work myself,(easy) by simply watching a builder & KZbin,all up took 1 week & cost $900 can accommodate 1 person comfortably

[@Unknown_Ooh]

Never understood how fully grown adults can literally dump every cent theyve got into something that they dont understand or cant be delivered on at time of payment. Its life lessons that should've been learnt long before your 40s/50s.

[@les8518]

Call it what you like. It is straight out theft. He is a low down thief.

[@erbigue.stanzgel]

You should report to the police in order to catch this guy. I felt frustrated too. I'm really felt sorry for those customer has been fraud or scammed. The government must help these customer at least some how. Every problem there's solution. Must ask help the community together to help these custoner lost money and house to build.

[@flyingcrocodile4630]

Always protect yourself when making payments for 'óff-site' material and or services by using a proper construction contract (as required under the Construction Contract Act) with schedule provision of procedures for identification, registration and security over all materials and off-site services on a monthly progress basis. Do not pay a cent in advance. Only pay on receipt of registration (properly identified named & located) for, and access to those goods and services. It's all there in the Act for those who care to read it.
