A Hernando County wholesale home buyer who prosecutors say was arrested while trying to purchase homes in South Florida is now facing a lawsuit from hurricane victims who claim he altered their signed real estate contract and put a lien on their property to prevent them from selling it.
Joe Fucheck, a convicted felon with a history of impersonating military veterans, has been accused of fraudulently changing a contract and misleading homeowners whose property was damaged by Hurricane Milton flooding.
The controversy began when Fucheck approached the family of Air Force veteran Timothy Clark, whose elderly mother's home in Ridge Manor was severely damaged by river flooding caused by Hurricane Milton.
Well get it done quick
The property sustained 44 to 48 inches of water inside the house
