Keeping our clients safe is always our top priority, so we wanted to share some tips from CertifID, who is dedicated to preventing real estate wire fraud.
They’ve recently seen cases of real estate agents being phished for social media credentials, so here’s what to look out for:
-An “investor”approached you stating that they require the use of CertifID to verify a transaction.
-They will send a link to a website asking you to log in using your social media account.
You should never need to supply your social media credentials, so always be wary of this ask! If you ever have any questions or want more info reach out to your real estate attorney.

As our recognition of Black History Month draws to a close, we would like to spotlight Herman J. Russell, Sr. of Atlanta.
Herman J. Russell, Sr. was the founder and former chief executive officer of H.J. Russell and Company. He was an entrepreneur and philanthropist.
Mr. Russell was born and raised in Atlanta, GA. He grew up in the Summerhill neighborhood, near Turner Field. He worked odd jobs for his father, who instilled a hard work ethic and prudence. After high school, Mr. Russell worked and later earned a degree in building construction from the Tuskegee Institute in Alabama (later Tuskegee University).
In 1953, Russell returned to Atlanta to commence his career. He performed small-scale plastering and repair services until he inherited his father’s business, Rogers Russell Plastering Company. By the end of the decade, Russell’s business portfolio expanded, taking on larger projects and successfully working with white-owned construction companies.
Some of Russell’s better-known projects around Atlanta, include Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the Georgia Dome, and State Farm Arena (formerly Philips Arena) and Turner Field.
