Federal Reserve Governor Cook Faces New Mortgage Fraud Allegations Today

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/08/29 04:11:47

BlockBeats News, August 29th: Today, Mark Pullen, Director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, once again submitted another criminal charge related to Federal Reserve Board Governor Cook's third property in Massachusetts to the Department of Justice. The charge alleges that Cook obtained a $361,000 mortgage on an apartment in Massachusetts, claiming it as a second home. Eight months later, Cook claimed to have received $15,000 to $50,000 in rental income and classified it as an investment property.


Cook may be involved in Reverse Occupancy Fraud, where a borrower purchases a property as an investment but initially falsely claims it as a primary or secondary residence to obtain a lower mortgage rate or more favorable loan terms. Subsequently, the borrower may adjust the property's use by declaring rental income to align with the definition of an investment property.


BlockBeats previously reported that a judge overseeing the case related to Federal Reserve Governor Cook's situation is scheduled to hold a hearing this Friday.
