Current Alerts For This Business
According to contracts submitted by a customer, America Holdings Company was to act as a transactional escrow agent in the sale of an existing timeshare property owned by the customer. After signing the sales agreement, customers were asked to pay a percentage of the sales amount to avoid capital gains tax and were advised that this amount would be reimbursed after the closing. This fee was not disclosed in the sales agreement. After the first fee was paid but before closing, customers were asked to pay thousands of dollars in additional fees to cover items such as transfers and Foreign Investment Registration Fees. The contract supplied states, “All monies given today will be held on escrow until closing. If closing doesn’t take place all monies will be refunded 100%.” However, customers who contacted BBB reported that even though they chose not to proceed with the sales contract, they were denied refunds or were advised that only a percentage of the fees would be refunded.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
