Mortgage fraud, a white-collar crime committed against lending institutions, has grown tremendously over the past few years across the United States.

This paper explains the implications that mortgage fraud can have on both affected neighborhoods and public administrators. Future research opportunities are also addressed regarding this complex phenomenon. Finally, a brief list o...

In this article the authors make two claims.

This tantalizing possibility does not appear to have occurred to anybody in this crisis, at least to this point. Part II of this article describes how the evolution of the mortgage industry has dramatically changed the economic properties of the financial products known as mortgages. They describe the growth of the subprime m...
