Huge thanks to everyone who attended our first General Membership Meeting of 2025! It was fantastic to see so many of you there. A special shout-out to our Board President, Cookie Miller, for her amazing leadership and for keeping everything running smoothly. Cookie, you did a phenomenal job!

We also want to express our sincere gratitude to our refreshment sponsor, Kelly Santos of Tidewater Mortgage Services, Inc., for providing such a delicious and generous spread! Everyone truly enjoyed the refreshments. 

And a massive thank you to our incredible guest speakers from Pasco County: JP Murphy, Director of Building Construction, Sawan Patel, Deputy Building Official, Paige Matissek, Lead Permitting Technician, and Kelly Fachini, Plans Examiner III. Your presentation was one of the best we’ve ever had! The information on permit updates, navigating the 49% rule, and everything else you covered was invaluable.

Please click here for a copy of Pasco County’s PowerPoint (Substantial Damage & Permitting in Flood Zones) which was presented at our February 12, 2025 General Membership Meeting.

Finally, thank you, our members, for making the meeting such a success! Your attendance and engagement made it a truly worthwhile event. We appreciate your support!

PROPERTY FRAUD ALERTS

Pasco Property Fraud Alert

It’s a disturbing trend that authorities are reporting statewide.  Con artists are using forged signatures and fake documents to obtain other people’s property.  It wasn’t long ago, that the only way you could protect yourself from this type of fraud, was to check on your documents and deeds regularly to ensure that they hadn’t changed hands.  We have made it much easier for you with the Property Fraud Alert System. 

The Property Fraud Alert system helps protect a person’s property from fraud by monitoring documents such as liens, deeds, and mortgages recorded in Pasco County.  If you are selling your property, you will receive an alert.  No harm, no foul.  If you’re not selling your property, and someone else is trying to, you will receive an alert. Just like signing up to receive alerts on credit cards or identity protection, the Property Fraud Alert system provides peace of mind in knowing property is being monitored against the filing of fraudulent documents in the owner’s name. 

Customers determine the personal and business name(s) they want monitored and may choose to receive alerts through email or over the phone. Upon notification of a document recorded with the registered name(s), property owners may verify whether the activity was initiated by them or someone attempting to commit property fraud.  For additional information, please read more: https://www.pascoclerk.com/195/Property-Fraud-Alerts.

 

Register

Registering for the Pasco County Clerk & Comptroller’s fraud alert protection is FREE and easy by calling (800) 747-4600 or sign up online at the Property Fraud Alert website.

Are You Getting The Most Out Of The Tax Laws?

Tax Laws

Members may not be aware that the solicitation of potential customers is regulated under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA).

Telephone Consumer Protection Act

TCPA prohibits text messages to wireless numbers using automated telephone dialing equipment without adequate consent. We have noticed an uptick on issues regarding the TCPA. For more information, below are links to NAR’s website:
