If you are reading this, you are probably a wise consumer; wiser than myself since I failed to do my due diligence on Chuck Dorfman Realtor, prior to commencing any business activity with him. This individual is as dirty as dirty gets in the real estate and finance industry; I am providing this testimonial as a previous client of Chuck Dorfman "Realtor", and I was taken for over $18,000 in a real estate scam he put together and solicited my monies for. Chuck Dorfman is so deeply entrenched in being a scam artist that if you were ever to approach him with any financial related matter, he always steps forward and claims to know best or "have a guy for that." When I first approached him in 2009 it was for my real estate needs and he was quick to pitch me with, " Capital Managment Services" and "Investment Opportunities" - aside from Real Estate dealings. He leaves a wake of homeowners who fell victim to his conniving business practices and I have taken the time in investigating that he primarily targeted homeowners in Las Vegas and Los Angeles; My loss with Chuck Dorfman Realtor occurred in Los Angeles. He targets people who are too trusting and lend themselves to whatever charisma he pretends to exude. Unfortunately, most of these people don't have the means to seek recourse after being defrauded, since it is primarily a civil matter. I am not going to go into any great length on the details of my loss, since it will do me no good; I know better now. I can only put it out there to any consumer who is smart enough to do their due diligence and read this posting, HEED THIS WARNING. With so many real estate professionals out there and the controlling influence they have on big ticket items like a home, this individual is certainly one you could do without.
