Overview
- San Francisco’s city attorney has filed a civil lawsuit seeking to cancel eight deeds recorded for 250 32nd Ave and names Brandon Aadee and Diana Peng as defendants.
- The complaint alleges at least five of the recorded deeds contain forged notary signatures, fraudulent stamps or post‑notarization alterations and that the two moved the deed back and forth to create a false ownership trail.
- City officials say the recorded owner, Wei Wang, moved abroad and left the house vacant while more than $320,000 in property taxes went unpaid, prompting the treasurer to open a tax‑auction recovery process.
- The suit asks the court to bar Aadee and Peng from claiming or occupying the house and to impose civil penalties under California’s unfair competition and recording statutes because county recorders accept filings without judging their validity.
- The case will be decided in civil court and no criminal charges have been publicly filed so far, a development that highlights limits in addressing deed fraud and underscores recent moves to give owners earlier alerts when transfer documents are recorded.
