Protecting Your Equity

One wrong click can cost a homebuyer their entire down payment. On this episode of Inside Abode, host Anne Jones sits down with two people who see real estate cybercrime up close: Troy St. George, Executive Vice President at CW Title, and Alex Busilacchi, Sales Director at Moreland Insurance Agency.We get into how wire fraud actually happens — spoofed emails, hacked inboxes, and fake wiring instructions that look exactly like the real thing. Troy breaks down what title and escrow companies do to lock down your closing funds, and Alex explains what cyber insurance actually covers (and what it doesn’t) when something goes wrong.Here’s why it matters: real estate transactions move six-figure sums on tight deadlines, and that makes buyers, sellers, and agents the #1 target for scammers. The threats are getting more sophisticated — but the protections are simple if you know them before you’re under contract.Whether you’re buying your first home in Tacoma, selling in Pierce County, or you’re an agent handling client funds every week — this one is required listening.🎙️ MEET THE GUESTS — want to know more or get in touch?
