Looking at Luis Rossman's video on the matter, seems this is a common thing with New York commercial real estate. So I wonder if they'll crack down on that practice too?

Let's hope so. If this helps to stop others from committing multi million dollar fraud, we got two birds with this stone

They should have all those contracts then nullified due to this fraud, and redrawn at the proper terms with actual rates. If he doesn’t qualify, then have him immediately have to pay it back. That’s what would happen to any one of us schleps. Not to mention jail and probably wage garnishments and stuff. But hey. I could always run for President still. I guess?
