The Trump administration is targeting individuals who claim more than one primary residence on mortgage documents, often citing this as justification for criminal investigations. This practice, however, is frequently legal and rarely prosecuted according to real estate experts. ProPublica's investigation reveals that at least three members of Trump's own Cabinet have obtained primary-residence mortgages for multiple homes. Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, and EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin all have primary-residence mortgages on distinct properties. Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte has been a vocal proponent of these investigations, framing the issue as clear fraud. Real estate experts believe the administration is misinterpreting mortgage rules to pursue political opponents. All three Cabinet members deny any wrongdoing, with a White House spokesperson labeling the report a "hit piece" and asserting their compliance with the law. Mortgages for primary residences offer better terms, and while misrepresenting occupancy is technically possible fraud, proving intent is crucial for prosecution. The administration's campaign, led by Pulte, suggests a strict interpretation that could encompass many individuals, including those within the Cabinet.
