Veronica:
And When did you purchase it?
Frederick:
October 12th, 2012.
Veronica:
So is it a condo or is it a co-op?
Frederick:
Oh, technically we're a co-op. You're right.
Veronica:
Okay, so
Frederick:
that's the official term.
Veronica:
That's why I can't find it. I'm looking for a deed. Okay hold on 1 second please
Frederick:
okay Veronica
Veronica:
No.
Veronica:
Okay.
Veronica:
Well done. Okay.
Frederick:
I appreciate this. You're an early
Veronica:
bird. It's
Frederick:
not even
Veronica:
9 yet. Yeah, I have to go back to...
Frederick:
Okay, your old records. Yeah, this is from 2012. Okay, so I'm
Veronica:
in 2010, so I gotta go back
Frederick:
1. 2012, yep.
Veronica:
Okay. 2012
Frederick:
Well, she has a paper it says quick glem deed and supposedly my signature but it
doesn't have any other kind of stamp No, no bar code It has a notary I didn't
Well, that's what I'm calling to find out Veronica. I don't think it was ever
recorded there's nothing on this paper that says anything about being recorded
with the recorder of deeds.
Veronica:
Okay, so yes, on the last page, it should have a stamp or something on it.
Veronica:
Yep.
Frederick:
It's a 1 page.
Veronica:
When did you originally? It's a 1 page. When did
Frederick:
you originally? I'm sorry. Originally.
Veronica:
When did you originally purchase it?
Frederick:
It's October 12, 2012. So 10, 12, 2012.
Veronica:
So it's not going to be a quick claim deed because it's a co-op.
Frederick:
Oh, because it's a co-op?
Veronica:
Correct. You just have shares.
Frederick:
We have shares. Oh, that's another point, Veronica. That's a good point she
didn't even get that right she has a tendency to make she's a graphic artist and
she has a tendency to create some digital things here that are not quite legit
so I didn't think of that Veronica that's great so it should say quit claim of
shares
Veronica:
no it's gonna say core it's gonna say core or but I don't see your name up here
Frederick:
yeah
Speaker 5:
so hold on because there's
Veronica:
a whole lot of people in this building.
Frederick:
Yeah. Well, that makes sense. I don't think she ever filed anything. I think
she's just making this up story. She says that I, in return for a $200, 000
condo, that I sold it, that I quit claim the deed for $1.
Frederick:
Do I sound stupid? No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't do that.
Veronica:
I mean, some people put a dollar on the deed just so people don't know what they
pay for. That does
Frederick:
happen. Yeah.
Veronica:
But,
Frederick:
I never got any dollar.
Veronica:
I know, right. So. So do you still live there?
Frederick:
Yeah, I'm here right now. But as you can guess, you know, my wife and I are
having a little, you know, disputes here. And she's trying to say that she's the
boss, because I quit Claim the Deed. No, I never did that.
Veronica:
Okay. Let me see if I can find somebody give me some help because I okay yeah
Frederick:

Frederick:
hello
Veronica:
hi ron How did you know it was me?
Frederick:
Oh, I know that you're very prompt in getting back to people. And I just talked
to you.
Veronica:
Okay. It seemed like you gave it to her. It's in her name only
Frederick:
that I did. Oh yeah. But was there a quit claim deed on it?
Veronica:
It's a corporate. It was a corporate to these. So it's the same thing.
Veronica:
Mhm.
Veronica:
So hold on 1 second, hold on.
Frederick:
All right. Well, what she's saying is I gave up my marital property rights
because we were married back in 2001.
Speaker 6:
Okay, hold on.
Frederick:
Yeah, I do know that she has it only in her name. At the closing, she forgot she
had a husband. Even though I bought a house in 2006, I put her name on the
house. In 2012, that was 11 years after our marriage, she was supposed to buy
Veronica:
my name.
Frederick:
I mean, it hasn't been a big deal, but just recently she's saying that I did a
quick clean deed, but I never did that.
Veronica:
Okay, well I'm going to... Well
Frederick:
that's what I'm, basically I want to find out if this document that she gave me
is fraudulent because it doesn't it's not stamped at all and it would be stamped
with a barcode you say.
Veronica:
It has a barcode on it but she might have a copy from, she might have gave you
that copy I don't know why but it should have had a
barcode on it.
Frederick:
Should have had a barcode, yep. Is it usually in the top left or the bottom or
where is it usually?
Veronica:
It's Usually at the top sir.
Frederick:
Usually at the top. You don't have to call me sir.
Veronica:
On the right hand side. On the right hand
side.
Frederick:
Wow. Okay there's nothing there. This is something that looks like she took my
signature from somewhere else.
Veronica:
Okay well. Well. No. It's just why she purchased it by herself.
Frederick:
Yeah, at the closing. Okay, hold on. That's true. Yeah, that
Veronica:
I'm aware
Veronica:
of. Okay, so y'all live in apartment S-316?
Frederick:
That's right. Yeah, I'm here now.
Veronica:
Okay. Yeah, so she only had it in her name. She bought it, when she went to
close and it was just her there. That's right. That's the way it looks.
Veronica:
Okay.
Frederick:
That's right. Yeah, I was at our Iowa house at the time and now when I closed,
she wasn't there, but I put her name on, but when she was here, she just forgot
she had a husband. Oh yeah, that guy in Iowa. Oh yeah. So anyway, the main thing
is this quick claim deed paper that she, her attorney gave me on April just this
past year.
Frederick:
So they've been really, they've been sitting on this for 13 years and now they
have this quick claim deed and it's not stamped by the recorder of deeds. Yep.
Would it be stamped and signed or just a stamp?
Veronica:
I mean it's gonna have our information on it but we do have 1 we do have 1 on
file
Frederick:
oh you do have what what on file a quick
Veronica:
we have the rest we have which they said or file
Frederick:
oh they have a quick claim deed on file
Veronica:
it's not as you can call it a quick hit claim deed but because it's a co-op it's
called a can-eat thing. But it's the same as a quit claim deed.
Frederick:
Oh, well this thing says quit claim deed. District District of Columbia this
instrument. On 7th of December.
Veronica:
So and that does not have 10 digits up there.
Frederick:
No. What what are the 10 digits that you see.
Veronica:
Okay. Okay. So after this I'm going to transfer you to a manager, okay? Because
I can't, let me, hold on.
Veronica:
Okay.
Veronica:
20 12.
Veronica:
Huh.
Veronica:
11:11. 1 9 02:10 digits.
Frederick:
Okay. So that's kind of the date.
Veronica:
The opportunity.
Frederick:
Is that the date backwards, the year, month,
Veronica:
day? Yes, it was 10, it was done 10, 15, 2012.
Frederick:
Yeah. Oh, well that's fine. Yeah, this thing that she this quick lengthy that
she gave me it was 7th of December 2013 so a year later, okay Yeah, yeah, so I'm
saying
Veronica:
this
Frederick:
Yeah, I think yeah, I agree that the 2012 document when she did the closing is
in the records. What I'm saying is that there's no 2013 that's valid and that
would have had a barcode in the upper right. So that's very helpful. It shows
that this piece of paper that you gave me a year after the purchase is bogus.
All right, I guess That's all I need.
Frederick:
And I appreciate it. You know, if you can send me anything by email, just for
our discussion today, we found no 2013 document. Is that? Is that okay to get
something like that?
Veronica:
Let me say that again, sir.
Frederick:
Oh, if you could send me just anything by email to show her that I did call the
recorder of deeds and there's nothing, there's no 2013 document related to this
property you know whatever you feel comfortable with you know you don't have to
You don't have to write that she's a sneak and she made up a document, of
course, or anything like that. Just, you know, according to our records, there's
no nothing altering the deed.
Veronica:
Well, no, I, Melody, I can send you, sir, is what we have on file. Yeah. That's
it. I can't make up nothing or anything like that.
Frederick:
Oh, okay. Well, if you could send that to me, I'd appreciate that.
Veronica:
Okay. Hold on, please. Hold on, please.
Frederick:
Sure. Okay, Veronica. Thanks. Yeah, well, that would be good. That's good
enough.
Frederick:
Just say this is the most recent document we have.
Veronica:
I'm not going to say any of this, sir. I'm just going to send you what we have,
okay?
Frederick:
That's great. I don't want to put words in your mouth.
Veronica:
No, I don't want to get involved and sound like it's a debate going on and I
don't want to be the end part of
Frederick:
That's right. You know. Okay. There's a lot of that going around.
Frederick:
Man, husband is a wife, it's not getting along. But the truth makes peace. But
the truth makes peace she won't lie to me we can stay married but She's going to
make up these documents. I have to think
