A WA real estate sales representative has copped a 10-year ban from holding a certificate of registration after he was found to have misappropriated two payments totalling $21,000 into his personal bank account.
Matthew Piero Liscia of Dianella has been disqualified by the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT) from holding a certificate of registration for 10 years after he misappropriated two payments totalling $21,000 into his personal bank account.
Mr Liscia was fined $2,000 for two breaches of the relevant real estate industry Codes of Conduct and was also ordered to pay legal costs of $1,000. The 10-year ban was backdated to begin from November 2017 when his employment was terminated, according to a statement from WA Consumer Protection.
“In August 2016, while working for a Perth city commercial real estate agency, Mr Liscia sought to charge a religious group $4,000 to view a commercial property in Carlisle that they were interested in buying. The group eventually agreed to pay $1,000 for the viewing and deposited the money into Mr Liscia’s personal bank account,” the group’s statement said.
