The Wayne County Register of Deeds Is Shaking People Down

The Document Prices At The Wayne County Register of Deeds Are The Highest In The Country

Wayne County Register of Deeds office is run the same way Mayor Quimby runs the Town of Springfield on The Simpsons

Let’s be honest. The Wayne County Register of Deeds Office in Detroit, Michigan is a wreck. Fees are outrageous and the staff treats people worse than Patty and Selma treat people at the DMV on The Simpsons.
In other words, it’s a perfect example of how dysfunctional Wayne County government is and why Wayne County municipal bonds have borderline “junk bond” status. Most former Soviet bloc countries have higher bond ratings. The scary thing is Wayne County taxpayers don’t seem to care.
First of all, the Wayne County Register of Deeds charges $2.00 a page for documents. This is the highest in Michigan and the highest in the United States. Matter of fact, Wayne County charges 200% more than the other 82 counties in Michigan. The only other municipality in the United States that charges over $1.00 per page is Bridgeport, Connecticut. Bridgeport charges $1.50 per page.
Most Eastern Seaboard states only charge 25 cents per page. Most of these states allow you to access land records online and copies are free. You may have to pay for your time using their service but downloading documents is free. In Florida and Massachusetts, everything is free if you pull documents online. Even internet access is free.

  Hawaiian Foreclosure Defense Attorney Gary Dubin Disbarred About Previous Legal Issues And For Defrauding Clients  The Hawaiian Supreme Court  has disbarred  Hawaiian foreclosure defense attorney Gary Dubin. The court entered a final order imposing the sanction of disbarment effective Friday, October 9, 2020. However, the court did give Dubin an extension to November 9, 2020, to wrap up his business. The court also is requiring Dubin to notify his clients of his disbarment. The Hawaiian foreclosure defense attorney says he will appeal to the US Supreme Court. The Hawaii Supreme Court found Dubin had committed multiple serious acts of misconduct. Specifically, in Office of Disciplinary (ODC) Case No. 16-O-151. In that case, the court found that Dubin knowingly lied about his past. Dubin stated in a 2008 mortgage solicitor license application that he had not been convicted of a crime within 20 years. It was discovered this was not true.  Read More At MFI-Miami

  Caliber Home Loans Fights To Survive Class Action Suit Alleging Violations Of The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act  Caliber Home Loans fights for its life after it was  named as the defendant in a 52-page lawsuit . The lawsuit alleges Caliber Home Loans violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.  The plaintiff states his previous servicer accelerated his loan on March 6, 2010, and filed a foreclosure proceeding against him.
