      Mortgage fraud is becoming harder to detect. AI-generated documents can appear polished and internally consistent, while risks involving income, occupancy, property valuation, undisclosed debt, identity and transaction participants may only become visible when teams connect signals across the loan file.

      Our recent client-only webinar, “Spotting the Patterns: Modern Mortgage Fraud Trends, Trajectories and Helpful Tools for Identification and Prevention,” is now available on demand. This practical session explores fraud-for-housing and fraud-for-profit schemes, fraud indicators across the loan lifecycle, and the growing challenge of identifying potentially altered or AI-generated documents through visual review alone.

      You will learn how to:

      • Recognize fraud indicators across origination, processing, underwriting, closing and quality control.

      • Identify potential concerns involving income, assets, occupancy, title, valuation and undisclosed liabilities.

      • Document and escalate connected red flags that may signal a broader pattern.

      • Use fraud-risk scoring and pattern recognition to help prioritize applications for deeper review.
