A married real estate mogul allegedly offered a female subordinate more than $3 million plucked from his company’s stocks as part of an “indecent proposal” to steal her away from her husband, a bombshell lawsuit revealed.
Tamir Poleg, the chief executive of the Utah-based real estate firm Real Brokerage, allegedly tried to bribe Paige Steckling, a married mother of two who worked for him, with heaps of cash, real estate deals and lavish trips, according to a lawsuit filed by Paige’s husband, Michael Steckling.
Michael accused Poleg of destroying his marriage through the incessant attempts to poach Paige, according to the lawsuit obtained by The Daily Mail.
Paige confirmed her divorce in a statement to the outlet.
“My marriage ended for personal reasons, and the claims made in this lawsuit do not reflect the reality of those circumstances. I’m confident the legal process will address any inaccuracies,” she said.
Michael claimed that he and Paige never even considered divorcing until Poleg began to chase his wife.
The complaint divulges a specific deal Poleg allegedly offered Paige in January 2025: a glamorous $1.5 million home in Park City, Utah and a promise to “take care of her needs” if she left Michael in the dust.
Poleg left his wife around the same time. Paige filed for divorce in February 2025, the lawsuit said.
Poleg allegedly offloaded $600,000 worth of Real Brokerage stock and funneled the cash into the “indecent proposal.”
Mere weeks later, Poleg allegedly booked a hotel room in Miami for himself and Paige, though it’s unclear if she ever followed through or accepted the bribe.
In early February, around the time the beachside tryst was booked, Poleg emailed Paige a set of instructions detailing how she could access the promised $1.5 million in two installments. Poleg admitted to the Daily Mail that he did send the email referenced in the lawsuit, but claimed he was merely offering financial support Paige had requested.
Poleg flatly denied the laundry list of accusations laid out in Michael’s lawsuit.
“No offers, no romance, no interference,” he told the outlet.
The mogul doubled down and asserted that Paige often complained about her lackluster relationship, and he gleaned that the couple didn’t share any “genuine love or affection.”
Michael is seeking $5 million in damages tied to the collapse of his marriage.
Poleg’s real estate firm is valued at a whopping $886 million.
