Most homeowners worry about credit card fraud or identity theft—but few realize their property title can be stolen on paper. Title fraud and squatters are fast-growing threats that can cost property owners thousands of dollars and months of legal battles.

In this episode of Empowering Healthy Business, host Calvin Wilder speaks with Kurt Moore, founder of Mo Title Security and a veteran landman with 30 years of experience in public records and contracts. Kurt explains how title fraud works, why squatters are difficult to remove, and—most importantly—what homeowners can do to protect themselves.

You’ll learn:

• What title fraud is and how criminals profit from it
• Why elderly homeowners and mortgage-free properties are prime targets
• How a Title Freeze filing works like a “credit freeze” for real estate
• Why squatters are so hard (and costly) to evict
• How a Notice of Occupancy helps law enforcement and courts act faster

Protecting your home doesn’t have to be complicated—but it does have to be proactive. Listen now and learn how to safeguard your property from two of today’s fastest-growing real estate threats.
