Mark Pantak is a liar and a snake.in January of this year we located a house for sale in Nederland, TX, and decided to attempt to purchase the house. We found that Mark was the supposed investor in the house and that the house was actually in foreclosure proceedings. We met with him on several occasions to discuss the details of our arrangements. We also met the true owners of the property, whom at the time were not aware of the deal we were making with Mark Pantak, he had lied to them and kept them in the dark on every aspect.
For several months we waited patiently for the supposed foreclosure to finalize, with very little to no correspondence from Mark during these passing months. Finally at the end of March, we get a phone call from Mark stating that he had found a way to "get us in the house." He proposed that we rent this house from him that he had made an agreement with the owners to sublet the house to us until all the Bank business was finalized. We agreed as we wanted our children in this particular school district as soon as possible. We also agreed to make the needed repairs to the house as part of our "rent." He in turn was supposed to be sending the money we paid him to the owners and to the 'lawyers' he had working on our deal.
We have paid our 'rent' to him every month we have been here, and done more repairs then actually necessary, thinking we were eventually going to close on this property. With every passing month he has come up with a threat to 'evict' us or a reason that the owners and lawyers were not getting their money and were backing out of our deal. Not only have we caught him on several occasions in lies about what the bank has said, he has yet to provide any proof to us or to the owners that he has a ligitamate attorney working for him or us or the owners. After repeated requests from us and from the owners of the house Mark has not provided any copies of any leases, agreements, or documents from the lawyers or banks to us or to the owners.
Who knows where the money we have sent to him is actually going, probably straight to his pockets!
There is always an excuse as to why he is unable to speak with us and always a lie coming out of his mouth on where the paperwork is or if there has been any progress on the 'deal'. To anyone wanting to 'learn' from this supposed Mentor BEWARE! He is a snake, and is out to get anyone he comes in contact with. If you are in a deal with Mark Pantak GET OUT, he is nothing but a joke!!! Hire an attorney and do your OWN research! I thank God we were able to speak with and converse with the owners and make other arrangements WITHOUT MENTOR MARK, before we made any further VERY BAD Mistakes!
