Event Description

Topic

Mortgage fraud continues to occur with surprising frequency in Alberta. The system has checks and balances in place to prevent fraud, and requires the participation of mortgage brokers, realtors, appraisers, lawyers, and lenders, all of whom must fulfil their jobs with diligence and vigilance to prevent exploitation by dishonest purchasers and vendors. Nearly every example of mortgage fraud involves a failure on the part  of one of the professionals involved to effectively, or in some cases, to honestly, perform their function. This presentation will describe some of the fraudulent schemes employed to defeat the system, and how they can be prevented and detected.

Speaker Bio

Steve Robertson is a commercial litigator with extensive experience in fraud investigation, detection, and recovery, and the extraordinary remedies available from the courts to assist the victims of fraud.
