*Ken Davis* under false pretense have
fraudulently induced me to enter into a rent to own contract with him under the
name of Prescott Direct Properties, Inc, or also know as Prescott Direct Corp.,  for which he is the sole owner. he claimed to be a
Property Buyer Advisor/Financing Consultant he promised to assist me in finding
a home to purchase. I was told by him in order to accomplish the purchase of
the house I would have to have a down payment of $20,000.00. I was able to put
down a total of $19,500.00 within a period from December 2007, January 2008,
February 2008 and April 2008. This amount was paid by cash, check, wired and
three months of rent. I
needed a balance of $500.00 to total the $20,000.00. (In earlier
correspondence he showed me with a balance of $3,000.00, but after going over
my payment receipts from the above mention months, it was less ($500.00). He
set up a note which he labeled * Promissory Note*, this was set up for me to
complete the balance to make up the $20,000.00. At the beginning it was a
balance of $3,000.00 I was to pay down, but once I looked at the information, I
only owned towards the balance $500.00. This Promissory Note was set up so that I
would pay $200.00 along with the rent ($2,700.00 + $200.00 equaling to
$2,900.00 a month). So far I have paid $800.00 along with the rent to go
towards the balance according to this note. I have paid a total of $19,500.00,
altogether for the down payment, after going over the paper work. On October 1,
2008, during a court case (# 060200174092008), Mr. Davis stated that he gave me
$3,000.00 to move in the home at 809 Malta Lane Silver Spring MD 20901. Mr.
Davis did not give me any money to move or to use towards the down payment it
was all my money.   In January of 2008 he stated to
me that if I ever get behind in my rent, I would be able to deduct the rent
amount from my down payment since I would not be using it and I can replace it.
He never honored his statement. Later on each time I asked him about it he
continued to call me deceitful and tricky. I file a case against him and was only rewarded $11,440.00 of my money along with $55.00 court fees.  He lied in court thus the judgment amount.  I have yet to be refunded.  This guy is a scammer and he knows the law very well, where he can lie and it sounds like the true.

It is now 2014 still no payment from Ken Davis

AUTHOR: Marlene - ()

POSTED: Tuesday, August 12, 2014

It has been 5 to 6 years and I haven't received any payment from Mr. Davis.  In his rebuttal, he stated that I had the house like a dump. As all of us who have moved, know that once boxes etc are open the place will look like a mess until its fix the way we want it.  This was the game he played to make me look bad. He had a plan to scam me out of my money so when he noticed that I caught on to his scam he took picutures of my move in day to discredit me.  I won the judgment for him to refund me my money.  The court saw his lies and scam.

It is now 2014, and he can not be found so I can be refunded.  I tried to serve him to go back to court tso he could give a reason why I have not receive my refund as the court ordered him to do.

Any can give me suggestions on my next step in getting my money.

 

Thanks for listening.

No word on when he will payment my money

AUTHOR: Marlene - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, March 16, 2012

Ken Davis has disappeared.  He did not show up for two court appearance.  If anyone remember he said I was a liar and a deadbeat.  The court did not think so.  He committed fraud and it seems as if he will get away with it.  I have tried getting lawyers but they are to expensive.  I have gone back to court, so far I spend past the money he owes me. 

Anyone out there who can give me advice or any suggestions.

Thank you

Ken Davis is a Liar and a Thief

AUTHOR: Marlene - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, March 22, 2010

I can prove that your are a liar and a thief.
If you want to check on my last landlord go right ahead.  When I first contact you, I told you I had to move because the landlord at the house was harassing me, my problem was not my not paying the rent.  I went into a rent to own lease with him and he broke the agreement not I.  He wanted out because his family was coming from another country and like you he made up lies to get his way our.  I also asked you if you was a for real company because I did not want to go into that again.  With him he didn't ask me to give him the money up front so the only thing I lost was a place to live.  he lied and lost his property.  So if you're going to discredit me know what your talking about.  Get your facts.  I still have e-mail letters of my asking you about purchasing  a house and not a rent to own.  I can get my mother here to testify.  You forgot you spoke to here about her credit.  I also have the paper work from the company you used.  You're either stupid or dumb for you to keep going on by calling me names. 

I am paying my rent on time because my landlord set his price to an honest fair amount per month. Not lying to me with hidden prices to make me fail and he get away with my money.

That is why I told you I did want a rent to own again.


You're Thief and Liar I want my money and that it.  You don't have post of talk just put my money in a certified bank check and mail it to me.

You said the court have spoken so where is my money if the court have spoken.  I want my money.  I want purchase a home before I miss the Tax rebate.
Give me my money, and you will not hear from me again.

Ken Davis is a Liar and a Thief

AUTHOR: Marlene - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, March 22, 2010

NO, Mr. Davis I am not looking for attention, and I especially do not want it from you.  I don't have time to look for attention, I just want my money so I can purchase the house I asked for from the beginning.  You can act as if I am lying but God knows the truth and I am sure there is some people who is reading this or have read it that can see that you are a liar and a thief.


You are a liar and a thief.   All I want from you is my money $11,495.00 plus the time interest,period.  I don't want you to post any thing.  My reason for posting here was to Alert others, to not do business with you unless they want to loose their money. I don't want to wait for you to decide to payment, I have waited to long.  Rather than you pay me you keep making up more lies and working to discredit me.  But your time is coming.  You can keep trying to make people look at me in a bad way.  Its okay, as soon as we went in the court room the judge said for you to give me back my money.  Why is that Mr. Davis?  The judge saw your lies.  The owner Mr. Monroe saw your lies.  Everybody connect to this case saw you lies.  A thief is always going to say its not his fault and the victim did it.


I don't feel bad or upset with all the things you said and you falisfied.  I have my paper work from the time I call you about buying a house not a rent to own.  You seem to forget my mother was involve in this from the beginning.


I have all the information from the day you set up the documents to the end. 


You state that I am a deadbeat and a liar along with other names, but my QUESTION STO YOU IS


1. WHY DID YOU TAKE $19,500.00 FROM ME?


2. WHY WOULDN'T YOU GIVE ME MY MONEY?


A quick way to get rid of someone you claim is a liar is to pay them the money you owe them.  They go away.  What you're saying is bull and you know it.


ANYONE READING THIS, Mr. KEN DAVIS of PRESCOTT DIRECT PROPERTIES/PRESCOTT DIRECT CORP.  IS A THIEF AND A LIAR.  DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH HIM. 


Someone out there have to see through this guys BS!


I don't have time to play games.  I pray for this guy everyday.  GOD listens.

Ken Davis of Prescott Direct Properties and Prescott Direct Corp

AUTHOR: Marlene - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, March 17, 2010

Mr. Davis is threading on very thin ground about now.  He can continue to make up lies and twist information I communicte to him to suit his defense.  He said he will file a defamation case against me, I say to him go ahead.  I will get the time I need in court to prove he is deceitful and a liar.

I not only have proof that he is lying.  I have many witnesses include the owner of the property Mr. Terry Monroe.  My old neighbors are all willing to come to court with me.  My mother will be here to testify on the reason I employed Mr. Davis and it was not for a rent to own.  I told him I did want to rent to own because of a bad experience I have with my old landlord. 

Anyone reading this can see that I am not the problem but Mr. Davis is, if he wants this to go away pay me my money, but he continues to discredit me.  I wish I had not contact this man to assist me in purchasing a home.  I had a gut feeling he was not for real. 

Those pictures was the same day I took my stuff out of storage, I have documents that will prove that.  I have friends, family, church members, co-workers, Mr. Monroe and his wife, plus many more who have came to my house and the can testify that the house was not what Mr. Davis is stating.

I have witnesses that will state that I did not see the house before I moved in, Mr. Davis forgot conveniently that he was to come and take me to see the house a week before but he canceled.  He said he had an emergency and he could not make it.  I saw the house for the first time on April 14, 2010 when I moved in.  I have witness that will testify to this.

He said he have sign letters that I sign pretaining to the condition of the house.  This is a lie because the house was only in the condition after the mover delivered everything from the storage.  Mr. Davis is tying to protect himself but he is not doing a very good job. 

Then the issue with the water, gas and light what a lie. I have all my documents on the day my name put on these bills and the bills were paid.  I requested copies of my payments from all the companies to show the court what kind of person Mr. Davis is.

 

I have e-mail conversation about subjects in his rebuttal to prove he is lying.  He forgot and if I was him I would push this.  With the information I have on hand Mr. Davis will loose.

Mr. Davis needs to explain why he was paying the owner $1850.00 for rent but he Mr. Davis was charging me $2,700.00 per month.  He talks about arrears that I did have, he needs to tell where the extra $850.00 was going.  He also didn't mention that I also won the judgement for his Promissiary Note.  How come he did mention that.

The owner evicted him not me.  I didn't pay for Sept and Oct 2008 because he refuse to refund me my money as he is doing now.

There is a lot of unanswered questions that he is not addressing.  My parents are not dishonest people and the will be in court when ever he's ready to file.  He spoke to my mother and I can tell you she is very upset with this.  

I want everyone to know that he changed this in these documents.

Ken Davis of Prescott Direct Properties and Prescott Direct Corp

AUTHOR: Marlene - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Monday, March 15, 2010

First, I am a mother of four I have no reason to falsify information on Ken Davis nor his company.  I went into what I believe was a legitimate contract with Mr. Davis, to purchase a home.  I gave him my money and I don't have my money nor a house as of this day. Keep in mind that he is neither a Realtor or Lender.  This was the first lie he told to me.  He told me the companies (Prescott Direct Properties and Prescott Direct Corp) was one in the same but he lies so much he don't know when he's telling a lie or remember what he said.  I have copies of the web site.  He may have shut it down by know.


Yes, he is right on the statement he made that I stated in court that I did not pay September and October 2008 rent.  What Mr. Davis is not telling is that I asked him in July to August 2008 to refund me the money I gave him (which by the way was to be held in an account until the purchase of the house) for a down payment so I would be able to pay off the remaining months of my rental agreement.  My question is how come since this was to be in an account, he have not refund my money.


The pictures he include in his Rebuttal is taken out of context.  I moved in to the property on April 14, 2008 but did not move my stuff in until later,  the day of those pictures. I have a statement from the storage company and the movers.  Everyone who have move to a new home knows that a home is never in order until everything is put in order.  If Mr. Davis wants to push this I will be ready.  He had nothing else to back up his lies so he used those pictures.  I can prove that they were used out of context. 


He states that I am a deadbeat and a liar; so I guess that the pastor of my church, my mother and father, my children, the real estate commission, Leader's Association, my lawyer, and the court are also deadbeats, because all of them saw Mr. Davis for the crook he is.  The owner of the property can atest to my statement.    All my documents available.


Mr. Davis lies will catch up with him and he may meet someone who is not so patient as myself.


I have copies of all my documents and if I knew he was such a liar I would have used a tape recorder.  I have nothing to prove by lying on Mr. Davis, all I want is my money to move on in working with a real true realtor and lender. 


Anyone need to see copies please feel free to contact me.


Its very disturbing that consumers such as myself have to deal with rip off artist like Mr. Davis.  I just don't want anyone to get rip off from him like he did me.  If I can help one person that would be worth it.


Thank you

Marlene George Is A Deadbeat and a lier

AUTHOR: Prescott Direct Properties - (United States of America)

POSTED: Sunday, March 14, 2010

FIRST AND FOREMOST, Prescott Direct Corp IS NOT PART OF Prescott Direct Properties, and vice versa. (She keeps linking the two! For what reason, I'm not sure).



Marlene George has written a false report. She was NOT scammed or Falsely induced into any contract. Making such a claim but not saying what in the contract was false is just making noise. She had a LEGAL rent-to-own agreement in her possession for 3 days before signing it and AT NO TIME was she told that her down-payment could be used as a bank account for her monthly rent payment.


Marlene moved into the Rent-To-Own home and one month after occupying the home, she wasn't making her monthly rent payments.


For three additional months her rent wasn't paid. She would lie that she mailed payments or gave excuses that she didn't get her check or that her ex-husband didn't give her alimony to pay her rent. 



We had to file an eviction (CASE#20627). She admitted in court in front of a Judge that she didn't pay the rent, so the eviction was granted. It was after that case, we started to hear about some agreement I made with her to use her down-payment as rent. Which is TOTALLY FALSE!! 



She kept the house like a garbage can. with rotten and mildew garbage in the kitchen and living room, soiled underwear on the bathroom and she was using the basement to dispose of garbage instead of taking it outside. I have many pictures of the condition of the interior of the house and how she kept the place (I've attached a few). 



I also have 5 signed letters from her promising to clean up the place and also to pay her rent on time.



In addition, she wasn't paying the light and gas bills! She was suppose to change those over into her name and didn't, so we had to have her sign a letter stating that she was responsible for those bills. I think after our threat and the signing of the letter, she did change over the utilities.



We are willing to show ALL documentation and communication with Marlene George.



She is a grifter! We are the second Rent-To-Own agreement that she has broken and the second eviction for non-payment. 



I've cut and pasted below a communication that was sent to a Judge that she constantly complained to about us, after her eviction order (and we still didn't immediately evict her! We were still trying to just collect payment of her arrears.)



The letter below was one I sent in reply to their inquiry and the many inquires we've had to answer after her accusations. She continues to complain because she wants all deposits back! I wonder who she expects to pay for her arrears?

July 02, 2009




 


Judge Eugene Wolfe




Civil Division




8552 2nd Avenue




Silver Spring, MD 20910-3364




 




Dear Judge Wolfe:




 




Case# 0602-0024960-2008




 




Ms. Marlene Georges continuing accusations of Fraud on my part is bordering on me filing a defamation of character charge against her and a harassment charge. She continues with her ongoing attempt to mislead anyone that will listen, to believe that she is a victim.




Her never ending charges and lack of responsibility for her own eviction, Case# 20627, which she believes is my fault, and she doesnt hold any responsibility for breaking her lease agreement.




I can prove these things:




A Marlene George was evicted from the rental property my company (Prescott Direct Properties, NOT PRESCOTT DIRECT CORP, has she is trying to tie the two together) because of FAILURE TO PAY RENT (Not Fraud)


B I would like Marlene George to swear under oath that she wasnt aware that the home she was moving into was a rental, and I want her to swear under oath that she was not looking for a place to rent while I worked to get her a loan for a purchase, but because of low credit score, she accepted the Rent-To-Own process. Instead of only laying down accusations, I want her under oath or via a notarized letter, to make this accusation.




When Marlene George failed to pay her rent, the gas and electric bills of the property on time, My exhibits in case# 0602-0024960-2008 will show that We gave her sufficient warning about the constant late payment of rent before the eviction.



Also, you can speak to Jesse Berg from the Attorneys Generals Office, who Ms. George also had looked over the case, we both supplied the Attorneys Generals office with our documents, and I made it VERY CLEAR to the Attorneys Generals office that since Ms. Georges Eviction, we have always and never refused to return any deposits, minus what we felt she owed, including bounced check fees and rent owed from the eviction.




HOW CAN I, or the company (Prescott Direct Properties), be a fraud or is trying to be fraudulent, when we NEVER refused to return any portion of her deposit that we felt was owed to her?




Ms. George needs to take responsibility for being evicted and her twice bounced checks and other issues she created that led to her eviction.




She wants to walk away with a windfall and clean hands, when she did not do all she was supposed to.




Now to address some of her accusations: (If the court wishes to speak to me, or needs me to address each accusation, I will! It just become mentally draining, over and over again, trying to deal with this. She needs to accept the courts decision and move on)


HER ACCUSATIONS:



(1) I EMPLOYED MR. DAVIS FOR A SERVICE I DID NOT RECEIVE.




Answer: Here is what Ms. George employed my service for:




 A Find her a rent-to-own in forest knolls - DONE!




 B It has to have 3 bedrooms and within walking distance to the childrens school -  DONE



(2) MR DAVIS FRAUDULENTLY INDUCED ME INTO A RENT-TO-OWN CONTRACT.




Answer:  This is an interesting accusation. She needs to explain how I induced her into a rental? She had a 3 day recession after she signed the rental agreement.  Before signing the lease, she viewed the home, liked it and she had an additional 4 days before moving in.
