Failed land deals link Husani and Kolbe circles [South Florida]
It is a coincidence that Neil Mohamed Husani and Todd Kolbe, two of the most prolific real estate deal-makers in Southwest Florida, lived in the gated community of Laurel Oak Country Club in Sarasota.
But it is no coincidence that their business and investment circles collided several times during the past three years.
Kolbe is now serving a 30-month prison sentence in South Dakota after pleading guilty to conspiracy to commit mortgage fraud, while Husani left the country in March after learning that FBI was investigating him for presenting false documents in multimillion-dollar loan applications to at least two banks.
