Realtors probed after ‘home is overpriced to use it as sex pad’

WAYNE, N.J. — The New Jersey Real Estate Commission is investigating allegations brought by a Wayne couple that their real estate agent was using their vacant home for “sexual escapades” with a female colleague.

A spokesman for the state Department of Banking and Insurance tells The Record the commission will determine whether agents Robert Lindsay and Jeannemarie Phelan violated any regulations and if they should have their licenses revoked. The newspaper reports that Phelan was fired Monday.

The couple filed suit against the agents after the agent’s alleged trysts were captured on security cameras in the house.

The suit claims Lindsay made a duplicate key to the house and listed it above market value to deter others from visiting.

The two agents named in the suit could not be reached for comment.
