We went undercover to investigate how networks of real estate agents, mortgage brokers and bank employees are perpetrating mortgage fraud for a fee, and securing their own commissions by submitting forged documents for approval. Some Canadians may have no idea they’re taking part in this fraud, which is leaving some of this country’s most vulnerable people - and their greatest investments - at risk.

It's very unfortunate that this is so prevalent in our real estate industry. This hurts the market in a couple of ways and artificially inflating house prices to a point that many can't afford. If clients don't make that money that is presented, the buyer can lose their deposit and more if fraud is found. Lastly the buyers are being charged fees to create fraud and risking being prosecuted along with anyone else is involved ( mortgage agent, real estate agent. etc.)

I suggest you offset your real estate and get into stocks, A recession as bad it can be, provides good buying opportunities in the markets if you’re careful and it can also create volatility giving great short time buy and sell opportunities too. This is not financial advise but get buying, cash isn’t king at all in this time!

They all are in on it … Every thing seems to be to line someone else’s pockets… from the president to the Canadian Gov. To lenders, banks.. you name it theres a scam but we have to fight the “war on drogs” 😂 they distract the common people with an opioid epidemic, and this supposed war that can’t be won when there really is a war to be had💯 it’s bait and switch with a little smoke and mirrors the governments supply the illegal substances to the streets and allow it to cross the border every single day.. and every once in a while, they “catch“ somebody so it doesn’t raise suspicion. They have been caught smuggling stuff in corpses of dead military personnel, and so many other ways it’s ridiculous. but this is all to distract away from the real white-collar crimes that are going on that make the rich richer and the poor poorer. Between traffic tickets, and this weird war on droogs they claim is going on it’s enough to keep people distracted, and away from the real criminals that are getting away with murder in a financial sense. all of the substances that they have scheduled actually have a medical benefit and were used as medicine at one time. MMJ was made illegal because it was threatening the paper industry as well as the alcohol industry. That was the only reason. cocaine is still used in medicine today and opiates are just another form of heroin but that’s where our focus should be according to everyone’s government, which absolutely isn’t the case. c0caine is still used in medicine today & 0piates are just another form of her0!n & that’s where our focus should be according to everyone’s government, which absolutely isn’t the case. People need to wake up and realize what’s truly going on but unfortunately the average reading level of let’s say the United States is seventh grade so we can’t expect more than 30-40% of the population to comprehend what is actually happening in the world let alone do something about it. The amount of people that are intelligent enough to put the puzzle pieces together is not enough to stop what is happening

True, we are looking to buy home in near future and although our agent is a professional, she recently said something like you can get a specific amount (which we are looking for) in mortgage loan but the lender requires an offer so that they know are purchasing a particular property. In short, we are not getting pre-approved but we can get that rate once we have put the offer.. That's just asking for trouble, We are planning to hold off buying for now until we have some more savings. If you can't afford it don't buy it simple, don't make things harder for yourself. People who bought a house in February of this year are crying right now because they bought overpriced houses on variable loans which they couldn't afford. I hope those house flippers are suffering right now, they deserve it.

The only way to stop it is the CRA and/or Federal government must provide a way to verify the notice of assessment (NOA). RECO : A self regulating real estate MAFIA /Cartel. A self regulating body never works for the public . If the federal government facilitated and mandated the NOA verification for new mortgages and renewals , home prices in Canada would go back to the year 2000 price level . The level of fraud is way higher than this documentary portrays.

The result is that the worst finance majors become regulators, although I don't believe paying them 200K a year to start is a solution either.

When a person from Bangalore sees feed about Canada through their friends , all they see is fall Colours , first snow , details about free health care , free primary education etc etc - they don’t see the daily struggles that people here have to go through - as a result they decide to move out of the country .

As someone who has crossed the ocean both morally and literally. The problem in those countries is corruption and rule of law.

Its the life of cattle, when someone decides to target you, there is literally nothing you can do, unless you want to be the butcher. Some people just choose not to be monsters and that is why they leave. Others just want to roll in their ill gotten wealth. Canada is not going to let you in unless you are loaded (wink wink) into one of those two classes. So yeah these people can afford to buy these houses and the banks are happy to jack up housing prices. When you kick new immigrants that are already down on their luck what are they going to do?

I think that’s the point why people do this, because many work their lives only to pay someone else’s mortgage or their yearly income and never own a home. If so called “fraud” is the only way to obtain a home, then go for it. It should not have any gate keeping by institutions who have an “image” of the ideal homebuyer. If you have the money, the means and good credit, then let them own the house. When a bank stops you from enjoying what others have that you can have yourself, you find a way around this to obtain it too. Every rich person and position and bank employee is manipulator for cash, simple facts. You see, if everyone can own a home, no one needs to rent to pay someone else’s mortgage. Once people can afford or actually gain entry to buy a home, no ones overpriced 40 year old home will be bought unless at decent market value. When the bank realizes they’re not creating debt you can’t afford and leave you homeless, they actually have to work for money. Hence why only those with homes or those who profiteer from home sales will not want this because they can no longer manipulate the market and the prices. Sure these guys may charge a bit more but you actually get a home!

What people like you seem to fail to understand is that some people work hard their whole lives only to pay someone else’s mortgage or are never allowed to own a home because of the bank. So if people like this have to exist (of course to make their own profit) then let them! I know I myself would use one of these methods as I have been looking for this myself and my family. Sadly, I don’t know any. If anyone does, kindly let me know. At the end of the day if the bank can’t help you get home ownership, then someone else will. It’s pretty simple math. I know of other services and products Canada labels as “fraud” or “illegal” in order to let them controlled (manipulated) markets flourish and keep the pocket books in the hands of a few only. Hence why people will always risk “breaking the law” even if law abiding citizens because once you have played by the rules only to gain nothing, essentially you will shift over to these methods to achieve the same way even owner and rich person gains money, through manipulation. It’s funny only those who own homes whine about this, same way those “license holders” cry about “unregulated markets” at the end of the day the consumer has the last say how their money will be used. So why expect everyone to live under you guys when they work hard and can own a home even if the bank won’t allow it? Then again, anyone who has a credit card would be a hypocrite and liar if they said the bank, rep or company did not just tell them we’ll get you approved, just give it a shot. So if the bank will push credit cards on you and approve you through “household income” then someone should be allowed to be offered a chance at owning a home in the same fashion...

@@hakasonma8588 Dude you need to stop supporting fraud, I've seen multiple comments of yours supporting it. You are talking only about first time home buyers, what about people who own 2-3 investment properties committing fraud to purchase those houses? Laws exist for a reason, maybe you should do little bit of research on why these laws exist and what are the ramifications if not followed? It's not pretty simple math. You have one dimensional perspective to this problem, the whole country will get screwed over. Do you know the crux for 2008 real estate crash? Please do research before you comment anymore.

This is looking so similar to 2008. I know there's a big flaw in the real estate market but I think that's just the tip of the iceberg. Interests related to cars and even school debt might make the near future worse than 2008.

One of India’s largest problem is now coming to Canada……informal cash economy … lots of money earned but never declared as taxable income …. Innocent Canada considers those fraudsters as low income families and provides them with higher benefits….and they enjoy everything. Buyers aren’t victims in most cases but part of the problem. Family making $170k in annual income doesn’t know when they are participating in or committing a financial fraud? Unbelievable!! CRA will have to coordinate with cities to match declared incomes and value of property owned. And boom you can catch the crooks.

A simple solution would just be for banks to obtain consent from borrower to confirm their incomes directly from CRA as the banks do for credit check, but this will interfere with the Ponzi scheme all the parties are enjoying, realtors, brokers and banks would be doing much less if they were to actually follow the rules.

100% true...I know enough people who own millions in assets, driving luxury vehicles, high income cash businesses, declare no income to CRA and collecting maximum Canada child benefits and/or GIS payments meant for low income families. Meanwhile flashing their scam money on us taxpayers who actually fund their lifestyles, telling us jobs suck. Governments and CRA failed miserably or putting a blind eye to this scam.

@@changinglive7 I think banks don’t care because poor CMHC picks up their housing default risk. Very recently, banks supported buyers who were over bidding for homes by raising valuation. That air in the balloon too is probably backed by poor CMHC.

I am a mortgage broker in the US. There are some loans where income documentation is not needed but you pay for it (higher interest rate and downpayment). Shame seeing this going on.

Looks like a great evidenced based class action lawsuit to me. 16, 000 fraudulent mortgage approvals per month?! Also, considering inflation, it looks like a shift is coming in the Canadian real estate market - in favour of buyers - despite predictions there'll be less people choosing to sell now. How sad for these people! They should meet with others who were taken in, and united, take Homelife to court. As well as file their complaints to the RCMP. This is insulting to real estate agents and mortgage brokers who do their jobs in the best interest of their clients, legitimately.
