The Minnesota Department of Commerce has suspended the real estate and insurance licenses of Kuntee Singramdoo after being charged with embezzling over $230,000.

Singramdoo, of Lakeville, was an independent closer hired by Walsh Title and Real Estate Services, Inc where she provided real estate closing services, sold title insurance policies and notarized real estate documents.

The Commerce Department complaint alleges that Singramdoo embezzled settlement proceeds by issuing Walsh Title checks to herself and family members.

At least 184 checks were issued between 2004 and 2007 to 24 different creditors including $68,109 to US Bank,  $48,863 to Wells Fargo, $800 to JC Penney, $4,764 to Macy’s, $6,286 to Goodman Jewelers, $800 to Bloomingdale’s, $6,866 to Honda, $2,734 to American Express and $2,323 to Discover, according to officials.

Singramdoo admitted under questioning from Commerce Department investigators that she embezzled the funds but at this time has only paid back $10,000 to Walsh Title.
