I am assuming that the devil will be in the details of the mortgage broker agreement.

Heads up on this issue.
A mortgage broker client of mine is getting demand letters from a lender tocover loans that according to an internal audit were not substantiated or were
false when made.
So, there are two future issues: first, the mortgage broker who did not verify
the information properly and represented that they did in the mortgage brokerage
agreement; and second, the borrower who will be sued by the broker for indemnity
or lender for possible nondischargeable claims.
Of course, the lenders used the brokers as a shield against due diligence and
underwriting requirements with the brokers agreement to buy back the paper upon
demand.
Any thoughts?

Back in 1998-2001, I filed over 50 nondischargeability cases for mortgage lender Master Financial, Inc., which specialized in 125% loan-to-value (!) second trust deeds. They had a good-sized bankruptcy department which reviewed every debtors bankruptcy schedules, comparing them with the Loan Applications. We would file Section 523 nondischargeability Complaints based on false income in the Loan Application, failure to list child support obligations, failure to list pending lawsuits, when loan proceeds were used to pay tax debts, and the most common: falsely stating that the property would be owner-occupied when it wasnt. This was a big deal for Master Financial, since they only made owner-occupied loans and could persuasively argue that the loan wouldnt have been made but for the false representation about owner occupancy. Sleazy mortgage brokers (yes, there actually were such) would always tell the borrower to rate. We settled 90% of these cases and took a few to trial with mixed results.
