I am a local homeowner unfortunately in foreclosure. I was recommended to PETER CANTAINA by someone I had just met in late March of this year 2014. PETER CATANIA the owner and real estate agent had contacted me and I signed a listing agreement for 30 days . PETER CATANIA changed the listing agreement date for 1 year. THIS WAS THE 1ST FRAUDULENT ACT he committed over the next 30 days.
The next day PETER CATANIA called me and said that he had great news. HE was contacted by an who had a buyer for my home that fast. At this point I had no idea Peter had changed the listing agreement to 1 year. Peter brings me a gentleman with a ton of paperwork to met with me. He said he had just met Mr. Tim Akers the new buyer. I complete the paperwork and Mr. Akers has me sign a document that I was selling my home for the sum of 10 dollars to his company.I laughed because he said I will have do not have 10 bucks on me now so I owe you the money. I said sure, but thought it was odd.

a week later I get a phone call from a buyer that AKERS WAS going to sell my home to and Mr. Akers was trying to get the buyer to escrow $50, 000 cash with his title company as AKERS FEE. Which is totally illegal. It turns out tat MR.TIM AKERS AND PETER CATANIA do know one another and that the LLC buying the property was actually owned by BOTH PETER CATANIA and TIM AKERS.

1- AGENT PETER CATANIA lied Ito me that he just met AKERS. AS a matter of fact AKERS AND CATANIA have several FLORIDA companies together over the past several years.
2- I asked why he lied about that and he said that he never said that and I must have misunderstood, No I didnt misunderstand anything at all.
3- AKER AND CATANIA were trying to make money on a side scam of $50, 000. MAJOR FRAUDSTERS
4- I then said I wanted to cancel my contract with AKERS and was told I can not. THAT WAS NOT THE CASE but they tried to threaten me by saying that they would sue me. UNBELIEVABLE.
5- I then tell CATANIA that I want to cancel the listing agreement ASAP. HE SAID NO I signed for 1 full year. I said that isn't true it was only an obligation of 30 days and that is the big deal to cancel if I only have 1 week left. He again said I signed for 12 months. I was lucky to make a copy before giving it to CATANIA.. Once they realized thye were caught in 3 lies they had no choice but to just cancel and go away.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE TWO SOUTH FLORIDA CON-ARTISTS. YOUWILL REGRET IT

PETER CATANIA III & TIMOTHY R. AKERS SCAM AERISTS..

An anyonomous complaint. If there was 1 once of truth to this, why doesn't the person state his name? This is the first Ive heard of it and Im pretty sure both of these comments came from the same person. I can speak for Peter Catania as well, that there is no basis of fact in this entire complaint. Mr. Catania is a gentleman of the highest moral and business character and I would gladly do business with him any time.

Met these two guys about 2 years ago and they pulled the same scam exactly. I live in Miami and they made a lot of money lilting and cheating. I will post a picture of Catania. Not sure I recall what Akers looks like anymore. He was a small to mid size build with grayhair.
