Lawsuits Allege System Used to Cheat Mobile Home Buyers

Lawsuits Allege System Used to Cheat Mobile Home Buyers
Emerson Estates along with appraisers, insurance agents, and mortgage brokers are accused of inflating prices and foreclosure rates.

These practices create problems for banks because borrowers are defaulting on loans. Purva Patel, Houston Chronicle 04/01/2006 Read Article: Houston Chronicle
