This is especially important for anyone:
• Elderly
• Living alone
• Traveling often
• With property sitting vacant, and you live outside of Larimer County
And if you have aging parents here, please sign them up as well and get a copy (email alert) of any changes filed to their property title. Larimer County already had a tragic and well publicized case where of a man selling marijuana from his Red Feather Lakes home who was killed by a buyer, and the perpetrator quietly assumed control of his property - as was later demonstrated in the murder trial - she simply filed a transfer of deed with Larimer County before moving into his house taking “legal” possession as the new owner. It took years before the crime fully came to light, and the person responsible was ultimately convicted and sentenced. The point is — isolation + property equals vulnerability. Criminals don’t just steal identities — they steal real land and homes if they think nobody’s watching.
