Serious Plot Error

Unless you are sure that a realtor has NEVER done this, or that they are legally not able to do this, then even if its unlikely its not really a plot error.

In the film the realtor is making money from government and banking loopholes, so to me it makes sense that he wants the people out quickly and without damaging the property. Shannon plays a character who is very devoted to his work, so to me it isn't that hard to see this as something that could happen. The cops who actually do the eviction call him 'boss'...so he obviously uses the same cops and has done this a lot. Everything he does is about making money and maximising profits, why potentially pay for another official or let them take some money for their role in the eviction when he can do the job and take that money for himself. Also he has so many scams on the go from short-changing people in the keys for cash scheme to stealing appliances for the insurance money that he wants to be involved to make sure everything goes smoothly.



"dont you hear that horrible screaming all around you? That screaming men call silence."

Entertaining movie but the plot error is showing the lenders as victims. They took a loan they couldn't afford. That's it. It doesn't matter how sad the family's story is portrayed.

Using some loopholes I understand but adding a forged document was too much. I wonder how many times something like that happened.

i took it to mean that the realtor was there as a representative of the bank. hence, they're deals with sante fe/vesci in order to do this. so yes, he should be there otherwise the police really have no right to be enforcing evictions without the new owner there, (police don't get involved with civil matters). so because the old owner and a representative was there for the new owner, then the it becomes a dispute and the police can get involved.
