GetDShirtz has done a little digging and has confirmed that not only are Mountain West Realty Corp., Residential Real Estate Review Inc., Alta Real Estate Services Inc., & Pelatis Insurance Agency Corp., are owned and operated by Fairbanks/SPS and that they share the same South West Temple address in Utah as the Fairbanks/SPS office but that they are registered to do business in other states. Interestingly enough, we have found that Pelatis Insurance Agency was formerly known as Fairbanks Insurance Agency up until the Curry class action lawsuit.

The suit alleges the following with respect to each of these companies. Following each allegation you will find a partial list (more to come soon) of links taking you to the Secretary of State website for each state where we have found a listing. In some instances you will need to enter the name of the company to do your own search and in others it will automatically take you to the document.  

     Mountain West Realty Corp.: "Through Mountain West, Fairbanks/SPS required the real estate brokers who actually did the work to pay Mountain West a healthy share of the commissions on the foreclosed home sales. At times, in the appraisal listing agreement, Fairbanks negotiated for itself  and a local broker a $2000.00 minimum commission. In those instances, neither the broker nor Fairbanks had any incentive to sell REO property for more than $60,000.00, demonstratably leading to fire-sale prices when the objective appraisals before and after the sale supported a much higher price."
