WASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Mortgagee Review Board has suspended three lenders based on evidence of serious violations under HUD’s regulations. The three lenders are Golden First Mortgage Corp of Great Neck, NY; Great Country Mortgage Bankers, Inc. of Coral Gables, FL; and Beneficial Mortgage Corporation of San Juan, PR.

Lenders subject to suspension are prohibited from originating new FHA-insured mortgages pending completion of HUD’s investigation into their lending practices.
