Real Estate Swindle Swings San Francisco Agent Across Nevada
A San Francisco real estate agent toured Reno and Wadsworth last summer selling town lots on the inst ment plan. Victims paid $10 down and $1 weekly, with lots valued at 125 to 150, but many reads show the scheme as fraudulent. The agent touted an electric street railway and a major hotel, neither of which existed near the town site, and several purchasers report the lots are nearly worthless. Wadsworth residents exposed the deception and forced exchange for other land after finding the misrepresented rail and hotel plans.
