FBI: Mortgage Fraud Begets Foreclosure
The FBI also lists Arizona, Colorado, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Nevada, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia as other areas significantly affected by mortgage fraud. The report identifies the most common scam as “illegal property flipping.” An illegal property flipping scheme involves fraudulent appraisals and loan documents for a straw buyer who never intends to pay off the loan. The FBI recently came out with its 2006 Mortgage Fraud Report , which somewhat anticlimactically concludes that there is “a strong correlation between mortgage fraud and loans which result in default or foreclosure.”
