Notable Controversies
=== Live Eviction on YouTube === One of the most notorious videos that has ever been released by Holton-Wise involved Wise and his team evicting a tenant from her home live. The video went viral and currently has more than 600,000 views. Wise and his team have received some backlash due to the general content in this video as well as Wise's apparent dig at the liberal ideology. It was deemed “aggressive,” “rough” and “inappropriate.”

=== Homophobic Tweets === A previous Holton-Wise employee was fired for remarks directed towards Stephan Curry's family during the 2016 NBA Finals. The tweets, which included homophobic remarks, were disavowed by Wise. Wise issued a public apology and immediately terminated the employee for his actions.
