WHAT IS BLOCK66 ?
Block66 is the first blockchain platform where lenders can access a marketplace of evaluated borrowers looking for mortgage finance. This marketplace is public, transparent, and highly automated, so lending is streamlined, with lower costs, and lower risks. Each loan is represented as a pool of "proof of loan" (PoL) tokens that can be individually resold to investors, providing lenders with liquidity, and empowering a diverse pool of investors.
PROBLEM OF MORTGAGES FINANCE TODAY
1. Most borrowers, whether they are purchasing property or refinancing their home, focus on their mortgage rate and loan terms rather than the type of lender they choose. The landscape of the lending market has shifted dramatically over the past few years from domination by big banks to a market where more loans are made by non-banks — financial institutions that only make loans and do not offer deposit accounts such as a savings account or checking account. For consumers, it doesn’t really matter whether you get your loan through a bank or a non-bank, although in some ways non-banks are a little more nimble and can offer more loan products, The impact is bigger on the housing market overall, because without the non-banks we would be even further behind where we should be in terms of the number of transactions.
2. Mortgage fraud is not just predatory lending practices that target certain borrowers. It is any sort of "material misstatement, misrepresentation or omission relating to the property or potential mortgage relied on by an underwriter or lender to fund, purchase or insure a loan." With this working definition, we see that mortgage fraud can be committed by both individual borrowers and industry professionals.
