For those that have been following the Casey Serin saga, it has been a wild night of events. To summarize, it would appear that a lawsuit is being filed against Casey for the stated intent of getting his nationally recognized blog seized by the California court system and auctioned away to the highest bidder.
The reasons listed for this lawsuit are numerous, but primarily relate to the allegation that Casey is profiting off criminal activity by blogging about loans he admittedly lied to receive. As I have written in the past, this honestly is an all too common occurrence in the mortgage loans industry, as I shared in my experience with Wells Fargo Mortgage company, they all but force you to lie in order to get a loan.
Now granted, Casey has done some ridiculous things in the past few weeks, from leaving his Wife to run to Australia to agreeing to write a book that appears to borrow heavily from the Da Vinci Code and the lesser known ‘Lapdance Code‘.
But does stupid action justify a court action to seize and auction a blogger’s website? The internet is such a new medium, that many judges are still wholly unfamiliar with their concepts, particularly the open atmosphere enjoyed in blog discussions.
Alarmingly, the lawsuit complaint against Casey and his IamFacingForeclosure.com blog also names posters of comments on the blog as defendants. Should this lawsuit prove successful, it could set a legal precedent in which anyone offended by a blog OR A BLOG COMMENT can sue the blog owner and effectively SEIZE AND AUCTION THEIR BLOG!

This is probably as good a time as any to outline some of the tax benefits of owning property. While you do get taxed on rental income, the ability to depreciate the property often allows one to completely neutralize any rental income.
