Vito Simone This 203k consultant was just plain fraudulent. He was overpriced & requested his money upfront before docs were complete. Took >3 months. He was not competent enough to add the numbers from contractors

This guy is very incompetent and HUD's guidelines allows anyone to be a consultant. He cant bid job himself so he relies upon contractors bid estimate to come up with writeup numbers. He is supposed to give you guidelines to compare the contractors number so that they dont rip you off. So he basically uses their numbers and doesnt even add the numbers up correctly. We went back and forth trying to get him to make the numbers match the contractors numbers that I had chosen. Why would he not add the numbers exactly as they entered them when he waited several weeks to get the details of the repairs from the contractor.

I paid for blueprints and everything to make this job run smoothly.in the end, I had to request an extension 3Xs because he could not implement the information the contractor gave me. I suspected he was either incompetent or fraudulent. My initial thought was fraudulent when he asked me how much I was paying for the property.
