and reimbursement of over $15,000 of expenses documented in Board Meeting minutes

used to prepare the property for the sale.

After questions about the financials arose in a February 2015 Board meeting, the
attorney, Steven E. Black, attempted to register an identical business corporation in
addition to the Associations 45-year old
non-profit corporation. Mr. Black was also
in process to register other Associations Blazing red flags
with an additional identical business - Dr. George Aldhizer, fraud expert
corporation. When discovered in April 2015, Wake Forest University
the attorney was confronted and the
registration was withdrawn without any
response or explanation.

Access to inspect Association books and records is denied by Mr. Black, the Board and
Association Management Group. Mr. Black documented his refusal in writing as shown
below.

All of this prompted more research which found documentation of fraud and
embezzlement that reaches far beyond the association, the city and the state line.

UNAWARE OF THE HOA DEED

Quitclaim deeds, assignments and appointments,


do not require the owner to acknowledge or sign.

All the QCDs are purportedly sent to the


property address that was foreclosed
months or years prior.

While much of the documentation indicates there are many levels of owner participation, Forsyth County
owner Donald Monroe was unaware of the HOA DEED filed by Margaret Chase of Rossabi, Black &
Slaughter, PA.

Mr. Monroes attorney filed a for the record deed regarding the Grantee [the HOA] as owner after the
HOA foreclosure auction.

This for-the-record deed was filed eighteen (18) months after the HOA foreclosure.

From Forsyth County ROD, Book: 3148 Page: 799 (highlight/underline added)

Grantee [Sherwood West Association Inc.] herein purportedly conveyed the above
described property to Donald Monroe and Brigitte Monroe by deed recorded at Deed
Book 3049, Page 4295, and Forsyth County Registry without the knowledge of Donald
Monroe and without the acceptance by Donald Monroe of said deed. The purpose of
the deed is to provide record notice that Grantee is the owner of the subject real property.
Brigitte Monroe was deceased at the time of the execution and recordation of the deed
recorded at Deed Book 3049, Page 4295, and therefore she could not have accepted said
deed either.

Mrs. Monroe has been deceased for over 34 years.

The property had been rented for a year between the HOA foreclosure and the Substitute Trustee
foreclosure by the HOA, however the income missing from the legitimate HOAs financial
statements as documented below.

Mr. Monroe would no longer be liable for the unpaid taxes on the rental income which was not
paid by the association at the IRS rate of 30% of the income.
