MORTGAGE FRAUD CRIMES
Unlike mail fraud or bank fraud, mortgage fraud does not have its own statute. However, that doesn’t prevent the government from aggressively prosecuting the crime under the title of “Mortgage Fraud.”
Mortgage fraud occurs when there is a knowing misrepresentation of the truth or concealment of a material fact when applying for a mortgage.
The punishment is up to 30 years in federal prison.
Our firm has defended scores of mortgage fraud cases.
