`
`

`

`Plaintiff EB Pinnacle Properties, LLC (“Pinnacle”) seeks to proceed, under Civ.R. 23, as
`
`the representative of former borrowers of the Defendant Mark Fixler (“M. Fixler”) (together, the
`
`“Class”), who fell victim to a fraudulent scheme run by M. Fixler, a “hard money loan broker”,
`
`and a network of “hard money lenders,” including Defendants Sherry Fixler (“S. Fixler”), JAG
`
`Enterprises LLC (“JAG”) and Brian Horowitz (“Horowitz”).
`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`1. This case involves a mortgage lending scheme where Defendants structured mortgage
`
`loans in a manner that deprives borrowers of statutory rights under Ohio law. When these
`
`borrowers defaulted, Defendants engaged in “self-help” foreclosures against Plaintiff and
`
`other members of the Class, often without notice, using documents signed at closing to
`
`unilaterally convey the secured property to themselves and/or their nominees without
`
`filing a foreclosure lawsuit. The Ohio Supreme Court and other courts throughout this
`
`state have recognized that requiring a borrower to execute documents allowing the
`
`mortgagee to sidestep the foreclosure process is an improper clog on the mortgagor’s
`
`right of redemption.
`
`2. As a condition of the loan closing, Defendants required borrowers to execute a Power of
`
`Attorney where borrowers irrevocably appointed one or more Defendants as their
`
`attorney-in-fact for the purpose of executing a deed conveying the secured property.
`
`Although the legislature has established that an attorney-in-fact owes various fiduciary
`
`duties to the principal, Defendants necessarily breached such duties when they misused
`
`their role as attorney-in-fact to seize property from borrowers.
`
`3. On information and belief, Defendants successfully seized collateral from at least thirty-
`
`two defaulted borrowers in Cuyahoga County alone, and more in surrounding counties.

`
`

`

`By doing so, they not only deprived the borrowers their right to a court-ordered public
`
`sheriff sale and right of redemption, but also several hundred thousand dollars of
`
`unrealized equity in the properties they seized from borrowers.
`
`PARTIES
`
`4. Plaintiff EB Pinnacle Properties LLC is an Ohio limited liability company engaged in
`
`real estate investment in the Cleveland area. Pinnacle obtained two hard money loans
`
`from S. Fixler, JAG, and Horowitz (together, the “Lender Defendants”) via hard money
`
`broker M. Fixler, secured by six residential properties. Pinnacle executed a power of
`
`attorney (“POA”) for each loan simultaneously with the mortgage appointing M. Fixler
`
`as agent, who was in turn acting as agent for the lender(s). When Pinnacle defaulted on
`
`one loan, M. Fixler, acting as attorney-in-fact for Pinnacle, quitclaimed all six properties
`
`to Jackson-Steinem using the POAs. Jackson-Steinem then sold the properties to Family
`
`Time for the outstanding lien amount.
`
`5. Defendant Mark Fixler is an Ohio resident, who, at all relevant times, acted as a hard
`
`money lender and/or loan broker who facilitated loans between hard money lenders and
`
`borrowers for a fee.
`
`6. Defendant Sherry Fixler is an Ohio resident, who acted as a hard money lender through
`
`M. Fixler.
`
`7. Defendant JAG Enterprises LLC is an Ohio corporation that acted as a hard money lender
`
`through M. Fixler.
`
`8. Defendant Brian Horowitz is an Ohio resident, who acted as a hard money lender through
`
`M. Fixler.

`
`

`

`9. Defendant Jackson-Steinem Holdings LLC is an Ohio limited liability company who
`
`acquired properties via quitclaim deed executed by M. Fixler as attorney-in-fact for
`
`Plaintiff, and subsequently sold them.
`
`JURISDICTION AND VENUE
`
`10. This Court has original jurisdiction under R.C. 2305.01. Removal under the Class Action
`
`Fairness Act (28 U.S.C. § 1453) would be improper because two-thirds or more of the
`
`members of the proposed class are Ohio citizens, the primary defendants are Ohio
`
`citizens, and the primary injuries alleged occurred in Ohio.
`
`11. Venue is proper under Ohio Civ.R. 3(B) because Defendants M. Fixler, S. Fixler, JAG,
`
`Horowitz, and Jackson-Steinem are residents of Cuyahoga County, and the six Pinnacle
`
`properties at issue are located in Cuyahoga County.
`
`FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
`
`12. A hard money loan is a short-term loan secured by real estate. They are funded by private
`
`investors as opposed to conventional lenders such as banks or credit unions. The terms
`
`are usually around 12 months, but the loan term can be extended to longer terms of 2-5
`
`years. The loans typically require monthly payments of only interest or interest and some
`
`principal with a balloon payment at the end of the term. Interest rates typically vary from
`
`12%-20% per annum, and lenders typically charge 1-5% of the loan balance as a closing
`
`cost.
`
`13. Defendant M. Fixler is a hard money “loan broker” who acts as a go-between for a
`
`borrower and a lender.
`
`14. On or about September, 2018, Pinnacle borrowed $60,000 from S. Fixler and JAG,
`
`giving three investment properties as security: 21801 Fuller Avenue, Euclid, Ohio 44123;

`

`3247 W. 114th Street, Cleveland, Ohio; and 3346 W. 129th Street, Cleveland, Ohio (the
`
`“JAG Loan”).
`
`15. Ellis, as sole member of Pinnacle, executed a POA appointing M. Fixler, as agent for S.
`
`Fixler and JAG, as Pinnacle’s attorney-in-fact, authorizing M. Fixler to execute and
`
`deliver a deed for the properties to the Lender or assignees. The POA was recorded
`
`simultaneously with the mortgage.
`
`16. M. Fixler was acting as S. Fixler’s agent with respect to the JAG Loan.
`
`17. M. Fixler was acting as JAG Enterprises LLC’s agent with respect to the JAG Loan.
`
`18. On or about January of 2019, Pinnacle borrowed $60,000 from Horowitz, giving three
`
`investment properties as security: 4420 Sackett Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44109; 3385 W.
`
`44th Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44109; and 3356 W. 44th Street, Cleveland, Ohio, 44109 (the
`
`“Horowitz Loan”).
`
`19. Ellis, as sole member of Pinnacle, executed a POA appointing M. Fixler, as agent for
`
`Horowitz, as Pinnacle’s attorney-in-fact, authorizing M. Fixler to execute and deliver a
`
`deed for the properties to the Lender or assignees.
`
`20. The POA was recorded simultaneously with the mortgage.
`
`21. M. Fixler was acting as Horowitz’s agent with respect to the Horowitz Loan.
`
`22. Since 2017, M. Fixler has recorded 587 similar POAs in Cuyahoga County.
`
`23. Upon information and belief M. Fixler has also recorded similar POAs in surrounding
`
`counties.
`
`24. In 2019, shortly after executing the Horowitz loan, Pinnacle defaulted on both the JAG
`
`Loan and Horowitz Loan.

`
`

`

`25. S. Fixler and JAG did not give Pinnacle or Ellis notice of default of the JAG Loan or
`
`Horowitz Loan.
`
`26. Instead, S. Fixler and JAG obtained three separate cognovit judgments in the Lake
`
`County Court of Common Pleas from May 29, 2019 through January 27, 2020 against
`
`Pinnacle.
`
`27. On February 5, 2020, M. Fixler used Pinnacle’s POAs to quitclaim all six Pinnacle
`
`properties to Jackson-Steinem, the three properties used as security for the JAG Loan and
`
`the three properties used as security for the Horowitz Loan.
`
`28. M. Fixler was acting as agent and/or employee of the Lender Defendants when M. Fixler
`
`quitclaimed the six Pinnacle properties to Jackson-Steinem.
`
`29. M. Fixler has recorded at least 32 additional quitclaim deeds using POAs in Cuyahoga
`
`County.
`
`30. Upon information and belief, M. Fixler has recorded additional quitclaim deeds using
`
`POAs in surrounding counties.
`
`31. On March 4, 2020, Jackson-Steinem sold the six Pinnacle properties to a third-party
`
`purchaser for approximately $98,000.
`
`32. On information and belief, the fair market value for the Pinnacle properties seized by
`
`Defendants was approximately $716,000.
`
`33. By seizing Pinnacle’s properties, Defendants seized approximately $618,000 in
`
`unrealized equity rightfully belonging to Pinnacle.
`
`CLASS ACTION ALLEGATIONS
`
`34. Plaintiff brings this action under Ohio Civ.R. 23(A) and (B)(3) on behalf of Plaintiff and
`
`the following Class of all others similarly situated:
`
`Electronically Filed 07/29/2020 16:37 / COMPLAINT / CV 20 931993 / Confirmation Nbr. 2040808 / CLJSZ
`

`
`

`

`a) Borrowers who executed a Power of Attorney (“POA”) that allowed M. Fixler to
`
`"sign.. .deliver and record a deed conveying to Lender or Lender’s assignee or
`
`nominee, all of Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the properties. with
`
`regard to the enforcement of a certain Cognovit Promissory Note,” were deprived
`
`of their equity of redemption and a public sale, and whose properties were
`
`quitclaimed and sold to third parties for a fraction of the fair-market value.
`
`35. The Class is so numerous that joinder of all class members is impracticable. And while
`
`Plaintiff is unable to state at this time the exact size of the potential class, based on
`
`Plaintiff’s review of the deed index in Cuyahoga County, Plaintiff believes the class
`
`could consist of over one hundred people.
`
`36. Common legal or factual issues predominate individual issues affecting the Class,
`
`including:
`
`a) That in the course of his agency and/or employment by the Lender Defendants,
`
`M. Fixler had borrowers execute a POA simultaneously with mortgages
`
`appointing him as attorney-in-fact of each member of the Class, who in turn was
`
`acting as agent for the Lender Defendants;
`
`b) The POAs were recorded simultaneously with the mortgages;
`
`c) In the case of default, and in the course of his agency and/or employment by the
`
`Lender Defendants, M. Fixler would use the POA to convey collateral properties
`
`to the Lender Defendants or another related entity without first obtaining a decree
`
`of foreclosure.
`
`d) M. Fixler breached his fiduciary duty to the Class members when he used his
`
`appointment as attorney-in-fact to convey the Class members’ property.

`

`
`

`

`37. The claims of Plaintiff are typical of Class members’ claims. Plaintiffs claims arise out
`
`of the same course of conduct by Defendants and are based on the same legal theories as
`
`Class members’ claims.
`
`38. Plaintiff will fairly and adequately protect Class members’ interests. Plaintiff’s interests
`
`are not antagonistic to, but instead comport with, the interests of the other Class
`
`members.
`
`39. Plaintiff’s counsel are adequate class counsel under Civ.R. 23(F)(1) and (4) and are fully
`
`qualified and prepared to fairly and adequately represent the Class’ interests.
`
`40. The questions of law or fact that are common to the Class, including those listed above,
`
`predominate over any questions affecting only individual members.
`
`41. A class action is superior to other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication
`
`of this controversy. Requiring Class members to pursue their claims individually would
`
`entail a host of separate suits, with concomitant duplication of costs, attorneys’ fees, and
`
`demands on court resources. The amounts at stake for many of the Class members, while
`
`substantial, are not great enough to enable them to maintain separate suits against
`
`Defendants. Certification of this case under Civ.R. 23 will enable the issues to be
`
`adjudicated for all class members with the efficiencies of class litigation.
`
`42. Without a class action, Defendants will retain the benefits of their wrongdoing, which
`
`will result in further damage to Plaintiff and the class members.

`
`acquire or retain the borrowers’ property for himself and/or the other Defendants.

`
`suffered and continue to suffer pecuniary harm.
