Hi there,
It’s interesting what people do with “advanced” property strategies, such
as Options, some people have been buying properties, then giving people
the “option” to buy them, charging them hefty weekly payments and then
leaving them hanging at the end as the valuations aren’t up to scratch.
This is not helping people…this is screwing people over…be careful
who you step on as it comes around in the end…..

Penalty and injunctions for rent to buy property promoters
(Patricia and Bryan Susilo)
Issue Date: Wednesday, 5 March 2014
Two promoters of rent to buy property schemes in WA have been ordered to
pay a total penalty of $29,500 by the Supreme Court for misleading and
deceptive conduct in their dealings with prospective buyers and sellers.
Patricia Mirawati Susilo and Bryan Artawijaya Susilo, sister and brother of
Karawara, were ordered to pay $17,500 and $12,000 respectively on
27 February 2014 after admitting to their misleading and deceptive conduct,
and Ms Susilo further admitted to operating as a real estate agent
without a licence. Both also have to pay total costs of $8,000.
Counsel for the Commissioner for Consumer Protection told the court that
the misleading and deceptive conduct related to the advertising and
promotion of rent to buy arrangements on several properties between late
2010 and early 2013.
