Santa Cruz County District Attorney Bob Lee announced today that Raymond Tate was arrested today in connection with a deed dispute involving property in Ben Lomond owned by Tom Decker and his wife Maria McArthur.
The case began when the couple came back from vacation to find someone living in their house. The occupant, Daniel Judd had a grant deed from the seller, California Housing Association LLC, signed by Raymon Tate, the owner of the California LLC. The only problem was that Tate’s California Housing Association LLC, didn’t own the property. In 2007 Tom Decker and Maria McArthur had formed a Nevada LLC with the name California Housing Association, and they were the true owners of the property. An investigation by the District Attorney’s office revealed the names of the true owners and the deed scam.
District Attorney Bob Lee commented, “To come home and find someone living in your house is bad enough, but to then to prove to law enforcement that you really own the house, just adds insult to injury.” Tate formed his California LLC on 3/26/09 and then sold the Decker’s property on 4/2/09 to Daniel Judd. There are some unusual circumstances regarding the transfer from Tate to Judd, including a reference in the deed to 21 silver dollars and previous ownership of the property by Tate’s parents. Lee stated that his office’s investigation of the circumstances of this transaction is continuing.
Please contact Assistant District Attorney Kelly Walker at (831) 454-2559 with any questions.
