    Government Action: BBB reports on known significant government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:

    Department of Justice v. Guild Mortgage Company
    The following describes a government action that has been resolved by either a settlement or a decision by a court or administrative agency. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.
     

    On October 20, 2020, Guild Mortgage Company LLC entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice, on behalf of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The settlement resolves allegations that the business violated the False Claims Act and common law by knowingly approving ineligible loans that later defaulted and resulted in claims to the Federal Housing Administration for mortgage insurance, failed to comply with material program rules that require lenders to maintain quality control programs to prevent and correct underwriting deficiencies, and failed to self-report materially deficient loans that it identified.  

    Under the terms of the settlement, the business agreed to pay the United States $24.9 million to resolve the above-mentioned allegations without an admission of liability.  

    The agreement was for settlement purposes only and the claims asserted against the business were allegations only. There was no determination of liability. For more details, go to https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdca/pr/guild-mortgage-company-san-diego-pay-almost-25-million-resolve-allegations-it-knowingly 

     
    This action is final.
