My husband and I unwittingly purchased 2 residential properties from Empower Group in October of 2010. We re-habbed them before we discovered that both are in terrible neighborhoods and neither of them is rented after 9 months. We're having trouble even finding a realtor to handle them. No recourse with the people who sold them to us and I only wish I'd done a search beforehand. I also think a class action suit is in order!
