To arm homeowners against deed theft, lawmakers to host town hall
In a bid to help defend homeowners being disproportionately targeted by the recent uptick in illegal property seizures sweeping across Central Brooklyn, top elected officials will come together this week to address the issue and disseminate resources to local communities.
Led by Attorney General Letitia James, top federal and local government officials will gather in Bedford-Stuyvesant on Tuesday night for a massive deed theft town hall.
The event will cover all areas of fraudulent property seizures, from deed theft and deed fraud to other forms of predatory schemes diminishing black and brown property ownership in Brooklyn.
